Well, I took lil' Pip to the vet this morning, and he's fine. Got his deworming treatment, and they estimated 3-4 weeks old. The vet said I can start him on a soupy mix of his kitty formula and either powdered kitten food or canned kitten food. He's struggling to learn to lap out of a saucer, and it's a hoot to watch! He ends up with a huge "milk mustache". LOL
Anyway, I told my T about it yesterday, prefacing by saying how I had done something stupid b/c of my finances being what they are...and she said, "Well, I'm probably the wrong person to talk to about that!" (b/c she's a cat lover) and then said, "I think that you can't really know right now if it was a 'bad idea' to get the kitten or not - what if getting this kitten kept you from another downward slide? You have to factor in how he'll make you feel..."
I love my therapist. :-)
Thanks for all the well-wishes with lil' Pip. He's such a sweetie. I'll try to get pics up tonight!!!
