I'm sorry, Pam - it's so sad when things like that happen.

Apparently the 7-month-old FIV positive kitty that I posted about recently
that the vet techs were trying to save after its owner wanted it PTS after
it tested positive caught calicivirus upper respiratory while at the vets
and quickly became very ill. The vets decided to put it to sleep.
Probably wouldn't have if it hadn't tested positive, and in fact it may
well have recovered despite its positive status if treated, but I expect
they felt it would require intensive care and they didn't feel they had
the time and money to invest in it, especially since it hadn't been
adopted. This is very sad, since it had no symptoms when it came in. So
Belinda, you can take our ad off the adoption pages (the one that's headed
"Help or I'm dead in a week" - poor little kitty, he was going to be
euthanized if no home was found, and while everyone scurried around to try
to find him a home he caught something that other kitties would maybe
easily get over and it proved to be his death sentence anyway). Could you
put him on the memorial list?
