5 am this morning [livejournal.com profile] lemur_catta was woken up by distressed kitten noises. The kitten with diarrhea was very weak and very distressed, We got to her to the emergency vet but they couldn't save her. Apparently her blood pressure and temperature had both dropped to critical levels and she had become dehydrated. I can't say I'm really surprised. I strongly suspect that she had a serious problem with her whole digestive system and simply wasn't absorbing any nutrients from her food. It's still sad to lose a kitten though. Maybe Death of Kittens could give us a break just for a little while?

Oh no. I'm so sorry. I hope you hang on to the other one this time.

Ach, I'm sorry - got up this morning to find Anna had been sick again. Serves me right for trying to serve her non-gourmet stuff. Hopefully I won't have to go to cooked chicken breast any time soon...

Oh, I am SO sorry. You two are incredibly brave.

Thank you so for caring for her, and comforting her.

I'm so sorry. Much, much sympathy to you and Lemur. I know that it's in the nature of this work that the kittens are at risk, but that doesn't make it any easier when this happens. It's incredibly good of both of you to do it; I really hope you can have a better run soon.

Poor little baby. I'm glad she was cared for though, and knew a little love.
