Poor Kitten

My husband brought home a surprise last night. On his was home he noticed a kitten sitting in the ditch. He stopped the car, this poor little kitten had obviously been hit by a car. So, he gently scooped him up and brought him home. If he had left him, he would have certainly died, the nights have been getting colder, in the low 30's, and we've gotten some thick frost. He's cute little orange and white kitten about 3-4 months old. First thing we did was get him some food and water, boy was he hungry, I filled the food bowl 3 times. Then we warmed him up, all he wanted to do was snuggle! He has a good gash on the side of his face, and he's having a hard time walking, his back legs keep giving out, as far as internal injuries, we don't know. He used the litter box right after eating and there was blood in the urine. We can't afford emergency vet bills right now, so we got a hold of the humane society and they sent someone out to get him. 1st they had to get permission from the chairman of our township, stupid red tape! So they didn't get here until around 11pm. The girl who picked him up was very nice and I know they will take good care of him. She made it clear that if his internal injuries were bad they would have to put him to sleep. We told her that if he pulls through we would like to adopt him, she said she would keep us posted. If your an animal lover please pray for little "Lucky" that's what we named him. We have 2 female cats now, and would love to add to the family. Besides, right now Tony is the only male in a house with 5 females (Me, Maddy, Tris, 2 cats: Jasper & Spunky) So I think he would love to finally have a boy in the house. :)
