  4. I wish I knew the exact right words to say but I don't. I just know you are in pain and you feel like it is your fault. It's not, one day you will see that. You gave a kitten a start in life it may not ever have had were it not for you. Sweetie Pie WILL remember that and will be waiting for you again in the next life. Be gentle with yourself and allow yourself to grieve. Its ok, we have all lost a baby at one time or another. We all understand, hugs to you

  5. @Snowflower. OH MY GOODNESS.
    Sweetie Pie looked just like the kitten in the very front. To everyone else. Ok thank you.
    I've been less hard on myself. I know if I had the power to fix everything wrong with her I would and if I knew she was dieing I'd give her nothing but love.

  6. I am so sorry to read about Sweetie Pie, Lilcupcake. Sometimes we just can't understand these things and it is so very sad. But you mustn't be so hard on yourself. I'm sure that Sweetie Pie knew that you loved her very much.

  7. She knew you loved her--they always know, that's why they come to us, even for a brief while. {{{HUGS}}} We have all been through this, we feel your pain.

  8. Never say you are stupid for getting attached LCC. It is just the opposite - you are good and kind and caring for getting attached, and sweetie pie was the better for you being that way. Just imagine if a human baby lost its mother at the equivalent age - odds would be against that baby too. That's the way with tiny kittens who don't have the mama kitties they need just at that time - it's touch and go, as all too many of our members know. And no matter how it happens, or when it happens, just about all of us wish our beloved, darling furbabies' last moments could have been different. I know I do, thinking of my Lolie. She passed early on a Saturday morning at the vets, all alone, waiting for me to pick her up, having left her in the night before, because I knew she was nearing the end. But if I had known it was her last night, I'd have kept her in the home she knew and loved, with me, the one person she knew and felt safe with. But instead, she died alone, and maybe anxious and fearful. I don't know. You can go through hell thinking about these things. But one thing just shines through from your posts - you loved that baby and you can bet she knew and felt that love. You are a better person for having loved her so much, and cared for her.

  9. @WIllowandwindysmom:
    I just don't know if a little kitten at her age understood love.
    She was adorable and my own little baby.
    Even though I'm not her birth mother. I was still her mom. And I was willing to bend over backwards, just to make her happy. That whole night before she died I was frantically searching around our house for a heating pad of some sort since it was getting colder.

    @Shebas mom in phx: You really think she knew? Cause I hope so. I WANT her to know I love her and that I always will. And even if she didn't I still would.

    @Eleniki: Thank you your post really touched me. I'm sorry for your cat, I really am. The feeling of wanting better is horrible. And it must have been really hard for you I am sorry.
    It didn't seem against her though, the vet said she was fine. And such.
    It just seemed odd how she died out of no where.
    It really hurts remembering how I picked her up and expecting her to wiggle around as she woke, But the exact opposite happened. I would never be against me loving her I KNOW I did. I loved her with everything and I still do.I just wish things were different. And even if her being born fine and the mom not leaving her for her problems and me not helping her is better then this. cause then she'd be alive with her real mommy.
    I can tell she missed her mom, which is why I don't think she loved me, she was still so attatched to her mom. :(

  11. No! D@#mnit! Too many kitties dying!!

  12. All babies understand love, LCC, even though they can't think about it the way adult humans can. They know it in a gentle touch, in a warm, soft place to rest, in a calming voice. Perhaps she did miss her mother cat, but you are the one who was there.

  13. {{{Lilcupcake}}} I pray you can find some peace and know that she DID love you! You have a wonderful heart and you did right by her.

  14. Oh no, she knew YOU were her mom and absolutely knew you loved her--please take comfort in that, it's how you will get through this, I don't think we ever get "over" it, it always hurts even after many years I cry when I think of one of the ones I've lost. {{{HUGS}}}

  15. I am very sorry for your loss. Please keep in mind that she passed in a warm, loving and safe home. If you had not taken her in she would have passed without ever knowing warmth, safety, or most important love. She came into your life for a reason.
