Wish me luck with a kitten rescue

[Siwsan]

Scooter finally had a litter that survived - 2 cream colored and one gray and white. One of the cream colored ones looks to have an issue with its right eye AND a circle of lost fur on its left side, over the front leg.

I've been working with getting it comfortable with my presence, in case I can catch it. My plan from there is:

I put the play pen on the screened in porch so that's where he/she will go. The boys will be banned from the porch until I know what's going on with the fur patch. IF I can get the kitten comfortable enough I'll get it flea bathed and then to the vet. I'm guessing it is about a month old.

This kitten won't join the family. If I can get it treated and socialized I will put out the word. It has beautiful blue eyes so I doubt it will be hard to find a forever home. There's no doubt that Bruiser is the father.

Best case scenario is catching all 3 but the other two are very wary. Maybe this baby can tell I want to help. Maybe I'm projecting. Anyway, wish me luck.

3. Every day the kitten lets me get closer

It also takes naps by the Maple tree. I've thought of sneaking up and bundling it up in a towel. It might be a little tougher to socialize, at this point, but I'm sure willing to give it a try.

4. There is something extra special about blue-eyed cats.

We have had 3 over the last several years. None now, sad to say. If I were close to wherever you are, I’d be asking you to save one or both of them for me. Our home needs to have a blue-eyed cat again.

Their eyes are mesmerizing. To me, it almost feels as if there is a little human inside, peering out at you.

6. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I don't think you will have trouble finding homes for Siamese looking kittens. I hope it's not ringworm.
If it is, be careful to not transmit it to your cats.

7. The kitten will be isolated, out on the screened in porch and in the play pen

The play pen has a mesh top that zips shut.

There's only one spot and it looks like the fur is growing back but I'm not going to risk anything. I just hope that, if I CAN catch the kitten, it doesn't take too long to get it socialized enough to go to the vet. So far it has shown zero aggressive behavior like hissing, spitting or swatting. I also want to give it a flea bath, as soon as possible. I've gotten pretty handy at bathing kittens. Even reluctant ones.
