    i just couldn't leave it .. i took it home and talked to it while i was driving home i was panicking i couldn't get it home quick enough... i read on the internet to wash it for fleas and feed it....so i got warm water and gave him a we wash with dove soapy water.. he hated the water but he was lovely when he was washed...

    then i took him to the vet and vet wasn't there but the man gave me special milk for him to feed him with a syringe. and until the nite i spent hours with him watching him sleep helping him go to the toilet .. but it wasn't until the nite, i realized there was sum thing wrong. evrytime i cleand his we eyes because there al hard stuff. it cum back.. he always was a we bit wobly on his legs but sumthing wasent right i knew sumthing was wrong . i took him and his we tiny basket to the vet.. i sat and waited praying and cuddling himm.. the people in the vet waiting to be seen let me go infront of them..... they seen that i realy did want to get my m8 lucky seen to.... it turnd out that he had an infection and he hada get put down.. i could feel a tear coming and i didn't let it show. it was crying and when i hold him in my hand he stopd .. i feel so bad i feel like he could of lived i really missed him and had great plans of watching him grow up.. i never felt like this with a cat .. but a soon as i got back in my car i just could not help but start crying.. im a boxer and the we thing made me cry.. i just want use al to know.. that when you see a helpless thing lack my m8 luck my we baby.. you cant help but do your best..im thinking of him now.. i never feel like this but i really loved there we fella ..he was about 4 weeks old.. he manged to walk towards me it was me he loved ...

  2. Bless you, Loopy, for all you did for your wee mate. He was loved and warm and comfortable and cherished because of you, you did absolutely everything you could. These tiny babies are so fragile, the odds are against them from the start and his mama may have abandoned him because she knew he wouldn't make it. Of course he loved you for loving him, I bet he loved you to bits.

  3. Loopy, I'm sorry to hear you lost your kitten. It sounds like you did everything you should have to try to save him, and I'm sure he is very grateful to you that you loved and cared for him during his transition. It is okay to grieve over losing him; it is hard to lose our kitty friends. Even when we do our best sometimes they have to be put to sleep anyway in order to prevent unnecessary suffering. And it is very common for us to think we made mistakes, or should have done this or that, even though we did all we could do. Take care of yourself.

  4. You did everything just right Chris,because of you this tiny creature was warm and loved instead of dying abandoned and cold because it doesn't sound like there was much that could be done for him.They do wrap you around their hearts though.
    Maybe when you're not so sad you can look into getting a pair of older kittens(because they won't be so lonely if there are two) and they'll entertain you and love you like the little one did. Hugs to you mate.

  5. Chris, 10/10. You gave your m8 love and warmth in his last few hours, it may not seem much to you but for a wee scrap of a kitten it was everything.

    Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

    When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
    All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

    They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

    You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

    Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

  10. Another kitten will come to you. Don't ask me how I know, but I know. I can *see* both small creatures.

    Both are waiting for you, one here in this world, and one in another. You did everything right, sweetheart. Everything.

  11. Good for you! Most men would not even have stopped long enough to notice a wee matey needing help. You did a great thing. I agree with Emma, another wee matey will come your way and your heart will be doubly full. Peace to you and Lucky.

  12. I too agree with Emma, another kitty will find you. Bless you for all you did for Lucky.

  13. Hi Chris, welcome to TDK. I'm glad you've found us, even under such sad circumstances. You are a hero for stopping for this kitten, and yes, you did everything you could, no-one could have done more or better. I hope you can open your heart to anoher cat/kitten, you're obviously a very caring guy :o)

  14. You did everything right-you got him to the vet, you cared when others would have passed him by. You have a good heart and will be rewarded for your kindness. Bless you!

  16. Hi Loopy, I know Banbridge very well! I have a friend lives in Loughbrickland! Welcome to TDK and good man for doing what you did, though I know it's very hard when you lose a tiny furkin like that. You might want to edit your last post to take the @ out of your address, so the spammers don't seize on it!
