Yes I am telling the truth. Thank you for your advice. I've read on the internet of people who have set the jaw themselves. But the reason not to do so was my fear of doing more damage than any good. Like you just described. I'll ask around in the Village tomorrow and hopefully someone can help me. Besides making the suggestion of putting her to sleep...
Did you find any vets on-line? I hope you can find one.
if you have any site suggestions. Please list them. The ones I've written to so far have not answered.
I meant, have you done a search for a vet in your area on the yahoo or google search engine. That will turn up many results. You don't have the time to waste waiting for an answer. Now, the Ask A Vet forum will be worth it!
If you're not sure how to do the search on yahoo or google, then post back!
There are no search results for Vets in my area. Cape Verde is a third world country. Still developing. The village doesn't even have an Xray machine for humans at the local examination station. I know it is difficult to imagine.
There is no emergency center for animals here. The web will not find one.

How much water does a kitten need to sustain herself? She has tried to drink but started to yowl because of the pain.
First off, that was a boo boo ALL of those repeated posts. The forum screwed something up. Just wanted to clarify that.
I think that you should check out the health pages on this forum-located in the upper right corner of the screen under "e-mail". Once you get there, click on the article that says syringe feeding. It's very good. But, I'm still not sure how much to give. Try to research it. I will look, too. Also, can you get your hands on some kitten milk replacer called KMR? It's got important ingredients in it-protein and fat, as well as vitamins and minerals. Your kitten desperately needs it, since he can't eat at all. You might get very lucky and dodge the infection. But, in all honesty, without food and the right nutrition-there really is not much of a chance.
