Kerry,
 
I can't believe you lost Snowball as well.  What a terrible day for 
you.  I can't imagine your stress and grief with your losses and 
impending trip.  I hope your trip is restful and peaceful for you.  
You certainly have earned some 'down' time, and I hope that's what the 
trip will give you once you get there.  I'm a day late on my post, so 
I hope you weren't anywhere in the vicinity of the explosions.  Where 
are you traveling?  If you can get online please be sure to let us

God Bless,

I couldn't agree more with you. Poor gal I feel so bad for her it's tough losing two babies within the same day. 
I've had it happen to me within a week and that was bad enough for me.
Where ever she travels I hope she is safe and sound as well.

  It's been a painfulday. I lost my gentle giant Snowball this 
  afternoon. I never expected that.
  He was breathing rapidly when I got home from the clinic. I thought at 
  first he was stressed because of losing his girlfriend Flavia. I couldn't take 
  the risk, tho, so I rushed him to the clinic. His lungs were full of fluid. 
  Only 25 per cent was not full and even that was compromised. I discussed it 
  with the same vet I saw this morning. I couldn't risk him dying while I was 
  gone, and that seemed a very real possibility. 
  Snowball was the biggest cat, a flamepoint, but he wouldn't hurt a soul. 
  He was terribly timid. He stopped playing a couple of months ago, butI 
  thought it was a lazy phase, because he had been pretty lazy before.
  The other little ones would enjoy batting him when he was below them on 
  the tree. He never batted them back. he was too gentle. He knew he could 
  squash them if he wanted too, but he didn't want to hurt them.
  I'm in shock for Snowball, and I guess Flavia, tho she has been so ill, 
  and I need to process it.
  Please send prayers for my remaining Mickey and Momcat. They are going to 
  be feeling very down and scared, and I'm scared they'll stop eating.
  I haven't read your replies yet because I just got back, and I have to 
  leave in 30 mins, and I haven't finished packing.
  But there were lots--I'm so grateful. I'll read them when I get back.

Kerry  I just cant believe
this is happening  I have to re-read your postings about three times to
see if I am reading it correctly  I am so very sorry, sometimes I wonder
if God exist  this is not right, you cant lose Flavia and
Snowball so suddenly so close to each other - the only thing I can think of is
that Snowball is such a gentle soul, he could not let Flavia cross the bridge
all by herself  so he decided to join her - the only comforting thing is
that now they are not alone  they are together  but still doesnt
justify what happened  I am so mad, Kerry, so mad about the disease 
this is just too much I HATE THIS DISEASE!!!



But I know Snowball and Flavia are no
longer in pain  their souls are probably doing just fine  (I know
it sounds strange, but I hope you know what I mean)  they are right next
each other and next to you.



I will be so praying Momcat and Mickey are
going to be just fine while you are gone..

Her doctor's concern is probably over the danger of the cats shedding 
Toxoplasmosis in their droppings. If she really wants to keep her cats, 
all she has to do is bring them to the vet and find out if they have the 
damn disease. There's no danger to her, even if they have been exposed, 
if her husband will clean the litter boxes while she's pregnant. Tell 
her to ask her doctor exactly what his fears are in regard to the cats. 
Then get me the damn doctor's address so I can throw eggs at his house.

I'm sorry, Kerry. If herPCV plummeted that fast, she probably either had a bleed somewhere or was killing off her own red blood cells (hemolytic anemia). That is what they told me with Simon when he went from 16 to 8 overnight.

Oh Kerry, I can only imagine what you are going through. I am so sorry it was his time and so close to Flavia's. Our thoughts and tears are with you and yours

It's been a painfulday. I lost my gentle giant Snowball this afternoon. I never expected that.
He was breathing rapidly when I got home from the clinic. I thought at first he was stressed because of losing his girlfriend Flavia. I couldn't take the risk, tho, so I rushed him to the clinic. His lungs were full of fluid. Only 25 per cent was not full and even that was compromised. I discussed it with the same vet I saw this morning. I couldn't risk him dying while I was gone, and that seemed a very real possibility. 
Snowball was the biggest cat, a flamepoint, but he wouldn't hurt a soul. He was terribly timid. He stopped playing a couple of months ago, butI thought it was a lazy phase, because he had been pretty lazy before.
The other little ones would enjoy batting him when he was below them on the tree. He never batted them back. he was too gentle. He knew he could squash them if he wanted too, but he didn't want to hurt them.
I'm in shock for Snowball, and I guess Flavia, tho she has been so ill, and I need to process it.
Please send prayers for my remaining Mickey and Momcat. They are going to be feeling very down and scared, and I'm scared they'll stop eating.
I haven't read your replies yet because I just got back, and I have to leave in 30 mins, and I haven't finished packing.
But there were lots--I'm so grateful. I'll read them when I get back. 
love and hugs to all
Kerry

Kerry,
Oh my goodness... I am so sorry for both of your losses. I just stopped crying for Flavia, and here we go again. Prayers are coming for Mickey and Momcat, and you as well. It is unbelievable that this happened, but those 2 new angels will help you to be strong. I don't know what to say, but I will be sending prayers and good thoughts your way.
