OMG, Lori, I just saw this, and it's just heartbreaking!

Must have been such a shock for you to come to her kennel and find the babies gone.

You will probably never find out what has happened. Maybe they were ill and Tootie just did what's a cat mommy's sad duty in such a case... Please don't blame yourself, I'm sure you did everything right. Sometimes Nature's ways are just mysterious and hard to understand, but I'm sure it made some sense...

R.I.P. little ones, you were very much loved while you were here on Earth!
