Thank you all for your kind words. It gets easier with every day, and I'm lucky to have 3 little ones to help ease the pain, as well as my canine companions. Life goes on, and so must I.

Dear Heinz57_79,

I'm so sorry to hear of your tragic loss! :(:(

Did the vet say anything about possible Distemper?? Formal name is Panleukopenia. It hits cats, ESPECIALLY kittens very quickly because their immune systems are so fragile and not quite strong enough to fight it off.

The symptoms of Distemper are fever, loss of appetite, diarrhea, lethargy, weakness.

Godspeed to the RB dear sweet babies! :(

I am so sorry to hear this sad news..~hugs

Oh my gosh what terrible news I will be praying for you and your kitties... I hope they are keeping you and you are keeping them company at this terrible time. :(

I'm so sorry to hear you lost so many precious ones. It sounds very much like panleuk/distemper as Moosmom mentioned. I've had it hit here a few times, and it's a devastating virus. Symptoms all sound to me like that was the case. I take in so many rescues year after year, that I've decided that better safe than sorry, and I vaccinate all that are old enough to be done. But sometimes vaccines can't be used if the kitties are sick already with URI. I do my best to isolate newcomers and cover cages, and wash between each new group, but there's times when even that doesn't work, and the virus from hell hits. :( RIP all the little ones that are now angels over the Bridge. :(
