URGENT: Seeking help for imbalanced kitten

UPDATE: We have found an adopter - within half an hour of posting this note up...!
Angels walk among us! Thank you so much for helping us spread the word, and to my dear friends Rosheen and Ashaari for your wonderful offers to help out. Will be checking up on the fella over the next couple of weeks to make sure that he turns out alright.
Thank you all once again - this is so amazing! *Gleams*

Hey Everyone,

My roomie Crystal and I are in a bit of a predicament.

Crystal's colleague found this little buddy in their office parking lot. He was stumbling over himself and mewing madly, alone and in distress. Crystal has taken him to a doctor and the kitten seems to be born with an imbalance problem that he will most likely not grow out of.

The kitten is 2 weeks old and still needs to be trained how to pee and poo on his own (his mother abandoned him before she could teach him herself). He also needs to be fed with a syringe because he doesn't know how to drink from a milk bottle yet. He kinda crawls in circles and tends to claw out at whatever he can grasp, perhaps out of frustration that he can't find his footing. Both Crystal and I are working full-time so it's difficult to take care of him.The situation is urgent because Crystal is moving out in 2 weeks and is doubtful that she'd be able to bring him to her new place.

So I'm considering 3 options:

1) That we look for someone to adopt him
2) That we look for a foster home to at least commit to nurturing him until he's a bit more independent
3) (last resort!) That I seek out someone who can offer a residence that is accessible by LRT and allows me to liberally visit so that I may travel to and fro from work to attend to the kitten during his feeding/potty times etc.

We will help out as much as we can, and I have no problem footing any medical bills in the meantime.

If anyone can offer either one of these 3 options, that would be fantastic and we will give you chocolate or its (dietary) equivalent.

Our contact numbers are below.

Please spread the word!
