Kim, I suspect we are all too hard on ourselves. You have been such an angel to your kitties and there is no doubt about that. Mother Nature has a way of fooling around with us from time to time by creating illnesses and challenges and sometimes they are bigger than we are....hopefully not this time for you!
I have never stopped blaming myself for Gabe and Grammy's deaths and will never forgive myself. I lost two really sweet guys for some unknown reason. Intellectually I know that I did all I could do, but I still have the "what ifs" about the situation.
Please don't blame yourself for being kind to animals. Cats can get just as ill, if not more ill, living on the streets.
So don't be like me - and blame yourself, don't feel guilty for being kind and generous to animals. The animals have built in ways of thining their groups, just as we do....and it is mostly out of our control.
Thanks for being such a good kitty Mom!
Love,
SAS
