By The Time They Arrived At The Hospital, He Was No Longer Moving!
Found trapped in a tree, by the time they got him to the hospital he was almost nonresponsive!
After getting a call from a friend of hers regarding a kitten rescued from a tree, foster Mom working with Wrenn Rescues, Ashley Kelly, is soon at the scene to pick up the tiny kitten and take him to the vet.
By the time she got to Oaks Vet Care, she is very concerned as he was barely moving!
“I was honestly pretty worried about him. And he didn’t move in my arms when the (super sweet and wholesome!) family handed him to me.”
“But once they got him on the exam table at oaks, and gave fluids and antibiotics and got his face wiped up, suddenly he was playing with wiggly fingers, chowing down on canned food, begging for pets, and coming alive,” said Ashley.
It turns out the kitten had been found by a group of kids hiding out in a tree. Unable to get down they had rescued him, giving him the name Pikachu.
