Amy, I am so sorry you lost Zman. We lost a 9 month old FelV kitten a few mohths ago, and it is so awful to lose an especially sweet cat when they are so young. Thank you for holding paws when he left you. Our mitty died in our arms being loved til the end, but it doesn't make it any easier to loose them. We don't have guilt about what we could/should have done for them, but the loss is just as painful.
