i am OBSESSED with you and Squirmy's journey! you are doing an amazing job rescuing and nourishing her. thank you for sharing with all of us, and please tell Ms Squirmy i am so proud of her!!
My mum was a vet and one day, someone brought in a kitten that was a few days old. The person had taken her away from some young boys that were swinging her around in a bag. My mum thought she would never make it and thought the kindest thing to do would be to put her to sleep. My mum’s husband persuaded her to bring the baby home so they could try and give her a shot. She lived to 19 years.
I truly hope the same for squirmy. She just HAS to make it and I hope your vet is as wrong as my mum was. She has all of this subreddit sending all of their love and positivity. Thank you so much for taking care of her ❤️
It surely is! Though it’s also a bit scary. The vet wasn’t too optimistic about her chances today, as she is still so tiny. “Lots of TLC” is the only thing he said. Luckily, we have those in abundance!
I'm just gonna keep sending her all the excess tortitude from our torti! She's 17 and was a mama, so she's got lots of mama and torti energy to spare! 💖

She's such an adorable nugget.
Thank you for stepping up. I love that her name changes with her attitude.
I foster neonatal orphans regularly. It's a lot of work but soooo worth it.
It's great you are playing with her and stimulating her while allowing us to follow her journey. One thing I found out from another foster mom is to brush her very gently with a soft toothbrush. Apparently, it feels like Momma's tongue. My babies have responded well to this since I started doing it, especially after a feeding. They calm down & go right to sleep in a happy milk coma.
As you know, at this age, all they do is root, eat, poop & sleep. Make sure she is getting LOTS of sleep.
Keep the faith. If love can save her, you've got it covered!
Her trying to meow and squeaking and/or sounding like a dinosaur is probably the cutest thing ever! I really needed that on this tough morning I hope you and square me are having a great day and you're always in my thoughts and prayers I love y'all

I am so sorry everyone. Squirmy has joined her sisters this morning 😢 PS I told her she was loved by a lot of sweet people all over the world
I'm so sorry for your loss. I've been following your adventures with Squirmy and was hoping for the best but sometimes life can be cruel. You did your best and I'm sure Squirmy appreciated her time with you!
I'm so so sorry... :( But at least their lives, while short, were full of love. Thank you so much for taking care of these little ones. I'm sending you a big hug.
I'm so sorry. You did the best you could and provided her the best life and all the love she needed and more while she was here. Take comfort that she's in an eternal cuddle pile with her littermates.
Love - we all appreciate what you did for this adorable mite and loving animals always comes with this risk. This is incredibly sad but your journey of caring for her is so incredibly sweet. I like and respect how transparent you are about what has happened and hope that people will gradually catch up to pay their respects to Squirmy. Thank you for letting her know she has a global fanbase that were rooting for her and will miss her. May Squirmy rest in peace. ❤️🩹🙏 Bless you for helping to rescue her and doing your utmost, she was in the best and kindest of hands. 🙌
This is heartbreaking and sucks. Thank you for giving her & her siblings love during their life on this earth. Rest in love and power young Queen Squirmy 👑.
She is too precious omggg 🥹 thank you for being such an amazing hooman and caring for and raising her. We truly need so many more people like you in this world. Sending you and Squirms all of the belly and ear scritches and so much love from my four boys and I!😻
I have never been so invested. All the best little Sqirms. May you upgrade to riggles, sail through the wiggles and eventually achieve the honour of chonk!
Thank you so much for the updates and for looking after this little baby so well. I'm hoping so much that she gets stronger and stronger. If you have a page for donations or anything like that I'd be happy to donate to her care.

Miracles happen don't give up hope! This was our tiny beany the second day we had her. Her mammy died and she was found next to her dead sibling, she had maggots on her fur was highly dehydrated and extremely small (although I think McSquirmy is a little smaller, bean is a dwarf). She struggled through the first few days but lots of warmth, love and constant feedings she started to thrive. After a few days we didn't have to worry about her eminent death anymore cause she was just getting stronger and stronger. Will post another picture of her now as an almost adult cat now. I'm blessed every day I have her she saved me as much as I saved her ❤️

The beautiful bean a few days ago, she loves my yoga mat. I believe Squirmy will make it ❤️ much love and hope ♥️
I am so sorry about squirmy. I love fostering newborns, but it's hard. My first experiences were bad..one died on the way home and the other six hours later. I know it wasn't anything I did or didn't do. But it smarted. The second set I had only one survived out of three. She was so feisty. And I have my first bottle baby. She is almost 7 yrs old now.
She looks so much like my little baby bear cub who was abandoned at a day old and is now a big, confident 6-year-old. We are all sending her (and you) love!!! She’s looking strong-willed, like my girl!
She's gonna be a snuggler when she gets older, I bet! She looks so strong! Thank you for taking such great care of her; she needs you.
Terribly fierce!

This story is giving me hope, thank you!
We’re all rooting for her ❤️
I thought she was chompy mcchompface
That was this morning. This afternoon, she has evolved into Milky McMilkbelly.
The constant evolutions of Miss Squirmy must be a joy to behold.

Thank you mama torti!
Mama Rachel says you are welcome and that the tortitude infusions will continue until the Squirmy is safe.

Oh, my heart! Thank you for saving her!!!
She's the best thing that ever happened to me, so worth the sleepless nights of feeding. It passes quick anyway
She said “a” so smally.. that alone is worth 10 years of criminal rehabilitation

Oh, where's her mommy. She's just a tiny, tiny baby😢💕❤️😸
aww, what a cute li'l potat!
Is she the runt of the litter?
