This is so sad; poor Loki and you. I dated a man who had two Labs and even though they were gentle, they were big dogs and I knew that, if their instinct kicked in, my cats would be dead in a heartbeat. I'm glad I trusted my instincts to never allow them near my cats. Your situation, though, appears to have been different. Duke was around Loki from the time he was a small kitten. There's no way you would've risked Loki's life had you known what Duke might do. It's tough enough that you saw it happen. Don't further punish yourself w/guilt. Just learn from it and keep your other cats safe. And guard your heart, too, because this is tough on you. Know that PTers are praying for you and that Loki is now at the bridge, pain and suffering behind him, looking forward to that day when you will meet again.
