    RIP Rocky Melite

    It is with such a heavy heart that I post this. Rocky died sometime between his last feeding and this morning. I had gone into the carrier to get him for his feeding and he was blue and limp.

    I don't think either Tia or Rocky had much of a chance considering they had absolutely no mother's milk or colostrum to help their immunity.

    RIP my sweet little boy. I'll miss your purr. You were loved so much my angel. Go take care of your sister, Mollie Rose and all the others at the RB. I'm sorry I let you down.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    Donna, you did NOT let them down. You were their hope, their chance, and gave them comfort and love. I am sorry it ended this way, and I am sure this is hard for you, but please don't think you let them down.

    I'm so sorry Donna - but you gave it your all - and it was longshot at best. But you tried. It just wasn't meant to be. I have to echo exactly what Sandie said too.....

    RIP little Rocky

    And peace to you to Donna.

    NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not dear little Rocky - he was eating like a little piggy and all....

    Donna I am so so so sorry! You did everything you possibly could for both Tia and Rocky. I know the 'if only's' and second guessing are horrible right now.

    No one could have been more devoted and concerned and loving than you - where love is an ACTION, every two hours, exhausted...

    {{{{{hugs}}}}} to you. I know both babies will seek out Mollie Rose, and she will adopt and show them around the beautiful Bridge.

    Oh, I am so sorry. Rest in peace, little baby boy Rocky Melite.

    Peace and love and deepest sympathy to you, Donna. You have experienced so much tragedy in so short a time. Please do not feel you didn't do enough. You have given every bit of all that you have to these beloved babies.

    Hugs and purrs,
    Pat and cats

    I'm so sorry to hear this. You didn't let him down. You gave him the love and nurturing that he needed. RIP sweet boy.

    No, I didn't let Rocky or Tia down. I knew from the very beginning that their chances of survival were not very good. No mama's milk, being dragged by their umbilical cords, etc. Not a good start. I guess what has really affected me was losing 3 cats in a week.

    They're at peace, together.

    Thank you all for your wonderful support. You guys are the best!

    Donna, thank you for trying an impossible thing. Rocky and Tia had no chance - but you tried because you have a big heart.

    Sweetheart, you DIDN'T let Tia or rocky Melite down! You tried to give them a chance in this world that nature would't allow and now Molly Rose can watch over them. Sleep in peace, little Tia and Rocky Melite!
