Loretta was found in a large local feral colony in Dec 2007 and was one of a litter of four kittens.  She was very sick when we took her in.  She was extremely dehydrated, had parasites and ear mites.  Loretta was seen by one of our vets two days after she came into the program and she is doing much better.  She was extremely scared in her foster home.  She is coming around nicely but will probably always be attached to her owner and a quite kitty.
