Poor little thing was alone in the middle of nowhere on the yellow line looking like a piece of wood, until it moved a little as I passed by. Had no other choice to take her home, feed her and now she is going to the vet today!

Good on you for rescuing her! Definitely an eye infection and most likely some respiratory issues, which are common with kitten rescues. The vet should get her on some antibiotics and with good love and care, she should be okay.

We have a rescue kitten that did lose an eye due to infections, but he’s now 18 months old and just a feisty ball of energy that also loves to cuddle. Wishing you the best of luck with this one!

I just hope she goes through it quickly and can start living a normalish kitten life from now on.
