Our baby kittie died today

I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty.

Now I am thinking about my cat we had to put down. Sounds like a very similar situation. She got very sick very fast!

Thanks guys. My DH took it hard. He was sobbing when he told me. I was still asleep. So I didn't get to say bye. His brother doesn't know yet. He wandered around and fell asleep. He hasn't realized it. We buried him in our backyard b/c the vet doesn't do anything there and the humane society is 30 minutes away. So we just did it. My DH picked some Daisy's and laid them too.

Has the vet given you any insight as to what may have been wrong with the little guy? Do you have to take your other kitten in to be checked out, just to make sure it wasn't something...else?

Give brother kitty big kisses.

They think he might of eaten something toxic. And we have houseplants so we're gonna toss them all. We're gonna clean everything to make sure our other cat doesn't get it. But they think it was something toxic b/c it struck so fast. And loki seems fine. Eating alot and playing.

Well we took our kitty in a few weeks ago. They both had herpes but its not life threatening. They both just had goopy eyes. And the Loki had it worse. But he just had an upper respiratory infection. We gave him antiobiotics and eyedrops. They tested him for leukemia and it was negative. And she said if one had it the other would so I don't think it was that. But Erabos (the one who passed) was always fine.

The Dr. said he'd put an iv and when DH got home they called to say they didn't even get it in before he passed away. His brother keeps looking for him. And he was so small I've been wearing his collar on my wrist. Today officially sucks.
