Look at what I found this morning, abandoned, wet and cold. [View all]

I grabbed a towel and started drying, warming and trying to stimulate some movement, which I finally did, probably with very little time to spare. Then it was off to a heating pad. It took a while but then I heard squeaking. I'm putting the age at 2 or 3 days.

Way too early to even guess a gender but I'm leaning towards a girl. She is now warm, dry, with a full belly and I even managed to get her to poop. She seems pretty strong. When she's not sleeping or eating, she's squeaking up a storm and likes to climb up on to my shoulder and snuggle against my neck. She's not quite 4 oz but that's about right for the age.

I realize the success rate for rescues this young is pretty low but what else could I do? So, lots of minimal sleep nights for the next couple of weeks but it will be worth if if I can save her. Or him. Only time will tell.

Any positive vibes will be most appreciated.
