Have given away 6 kittens tonight after burying Fiona. My backyard's pretty much a pet cemetery. One more to give away, keeping two. We're keeping Oreo and Halo (aka "Mark" due to his one black marking). I'm done with this. It's hard to see these little animals suffer. I just loved Fiona. What an awesome cat she was and what a short life compared to how long I thought I'd have her. I wonder if there's anything I could have done to stop her from getting so sick. It may have been something she ate. Who knows. None of the other cats are sick. The vet mentioned a possible calcium deficiency, but I gave her milk all the time. She nursed the kittens a lot but she also had help from Helen, and she's nursed kittens longer than this before with no problem. It was something else. A fall or an infection or something. I won't know. I will always wonder if I could have stopped it.
