Anybody had kittens pull through this?? It's got a really high mortality rate, but I know pups can come through parvo with intensive nursing, so I was wondering if anybody's nursed a kitten through it successfully.
One of the feral cats with kittens I was fostering for the shelter tested positive and stopped eating, so we had to euthanize her, but I still have the four-week old kittens who, according to the vet, will die from it...it's only a matter of time until they show symptoms and go downhill.
But from my reading, theoretically, it IS possible to bring them through, just difficult. Any experiences here??

Corinne, thank you for your kind encouragement! So far nobody has fallen ill, so here's to hoping we can defy statistics!! :)

Jodi, I have no background with this illness. I just wanted to wish you the best luck possible with these babies, love is the best cure ever and who knows... at least they will know human love for the time they have.
You are great to accept the tsk.
Hugs,
