foster kittens not doing well and Tucker died.....
Question: I;ll update later more details but little Tucker died a few minutes ago. Please keep me in your prayers/thoughts... this foster stuff is so hard and is getting to me... so much sickness and death.... I had him nine days and he was great until yesterday..... Answer: I was wondering how you could possibly cope. I myself would love to foster, but I don't know if I could bear the heartbreak of losing any, let alone the few that you have lost since you've joined POTN... I commend you for your patience and strength, even as you find it waning. sending your way for the foster kitties... Answer: Oh, that is so sad I will keep you and the other kitties in my thoughts Answer: Oh, nyx, I'm so sorry! I can't even imagine the sorrow you must be feeling. Those poor little kitties, too - they didn't have a good start to life. I hope you know that you DID make a difference to them. Without you, they would've passed out of this life never having known love and care. They were lucky to have their way to you for the brief time they were here. Is it possible for you to take a break once these guys go back to the shelter? I think you definitely deserve a break. I'm so sorry! Answer: I am so sorry. But you are making a difference in their lives. And they do appreciate it. Answer: aww.... that is so sad.. Im so sorry.... Im sure that Tucker was happy to have someone to love for the short time... will keep you in my thoughts... Answer: After talking to shelter coordinator/foster person, and telling them that four more started throwing up and running fever, i took them all back except for one that appears at least for now to be healthy. the vet and the shelter mgr are going to evaulate them to see if there is anything else that can be done or not... it broke my heart to take them in and say goodbye, but they were not doing better here and after the third antibiotic and feedign with syringe, i had nothing else to try.... im just totally whiped out now and hurting for my little angels... and am definitely taking a break if not stopping... its so hard... thanks to all for your kindness..... Answer: On Nyx, your heart is in the right place and you're so damn strong. I really admire what you do for these sweet kitties who were lucky enough to know love. Answer: nyx, I can only imagine how incredibly hard it must be to watch those little angels suffer and then to lose some of them .... Hang in there ... you're doing a wonderful thing Copyright © 2007 - 2008 www.tendlife.com
