I was told before to never adopt the Runt of the litter. Also, I read that in one of my cat books. They said they will have some health problems. Is that true or not. I am not really sure. There is always one kitten that is smaller then the others in the litter. I adopted a tortie kitten from the Humane Society. She didn't looked like a regular kitten. She had giant ears, very tiny paws and a skinny tail. Too me, Sabrina looked like a rat. Her brother was all black and he was twice the size of her. The tortie I see in the shelter are bigger then my Sabrina. I guess Sabrina was the runt of the litter. She had lots of problems with her stool. It was very runny just like diarrhea. Her stool sometimes had blood in it but it all clear up for now.

I was just wondering will she have lots of health problem as she gets older. Should I be concern since she was a runt of the litter. Please reply and let me know. Thanks for your time!
