Mighty Mouse, aka Pumpkin, Needs Prayers

Mighty Mouse was found amongst a litter of stray kittens, and was much smaller than the others, so he came to Marguerite to be raised as a bottle-baby.  He had done wonderfully well until suffering from hypoglycemia a couple of weeks ago.  He rebounded right away and was gaining weight like crazy.  But then Marguerite found him breathing through his mouth and pitifully crying on Saturday morning - he had come down with pneumonia overnight.

Please say prayers that Mighty Mouse makes it through the next couple of days.  He is gravely ill.  He has come so far and deserves a long life.

Poor sweet boy!  Prayers coming for a full recovery and for him to grow up to be a fat, happy, and well-loved cat!

Poor baby.....I can see from your photo that he is on meds to help him get well. I will pray for his recovery. I am so glad he was found as he would not have made it out there on his own.

Oh my goodness!  I just finished doing a scrapbook layout about Pumpkin today and then saw your blog post.  I was already tearing up before I made it to the update that he's doing better.  Will keep praying.  GO Mighty Mouse!!

Mighty Mouse continues to rally.  He's almost back to normal, and now he has a friend named Curtis, who is almost as tiny as him.  They are best friends!!  Mighty Mouse has been through soooo much!  I wish I had the zest for life and inner strength he does!
