Re: I killed Grayson

[Lernermichelle]

Tonya, kittens that young just die sometimes. You have no idea why he died. When I was young we tried to save a baby rabbit who had been pulled from the nest by a dog, uninjured; we bottle fed him, kept him warm, etc. and he seemed fine for 3 days. Then when my mom went to feed him  in the night on the third night he was dead.  He was not in bed with us. He just died, because he was too young to be away from a mother and just did not make it, like the tabby did not make it. Unless there is physical evidence of it, I do not think you should assume you smothered him, and to be honest I really doubt that is what happened.   Whatever happened, I am so sorry, for him and for you.
