This past weekend was hell for me. My little 6 month old kitty, Fluffer, drank some antifreeze somewhere and she was practically dead to the world. she wouldnt move, eat nothing. She just kept having seizures. the emergency vet said all he could do was give me some medicine to give her, and to feed her myself. I tried, i tried so hard to keep her alive. But she just kept getting worse and worse

Losing pets is the most terrible feeling. I'm so sorry.
In some colder climates like upstate NY they put antifreeze in the toilet water reserves to keep the pipes from freezing. I've known of a few dogs who drank out of the toilet and passed away. Keep the lid down if you live in one of those areas.

My kitty Lyla weeps for Fluffer. She was very concerned since they around the same age. Seriously though, I am sorry, animals make such big bonds in a short amount of time. I have lost a few pets and its never easy. Always be careful, Antifreeze is horrible since it smells sweet and tricks animals into drinking it. I edited this.

I just had a friend find a cat about 3 weeks ago and it was just a kitten...in a city. She took it in and within 2 weeks it had already died. It was really sad because a dog had gotten a hold of it. And she had no idea the kitten had even gotten outside but when she returned home the kitten was lying mangled in a bush. It was really sad...
I had a kitten of my own also die that way and my mom said she was too late to catch the dog but saw it running off with the kitten in his mouth. I was so angry and sad...I was sad that it died. And angry that my mom didn't do anything...I would have chased after the dog probably had I been there.
I'm sorry to hear that tarae. It's no good and always sad.

I'm sorry to hear about your kitty, it breaks my heart to hear stuff like this
take comfort in the fact that you gave her all the love you possibly could and took such good care of her in her last days, she was lucky to have you for a kitty mommy
Ditto. I'm so sorry to hear about your cat, Tara! I would hate it if I ever lost my cat due to some kind of accident. It's been with me through several years and a couple of moves. I would really miss it running past my legs when I open my front door, meowing when I'm in deep sleep, and sitting on my lap when I'm trying to do work on my computer. Good luck.

Aw, I am so sorry dear...I know that feeling and it's no good; and like crazykittensmile said be comforted by the fact that you gave her all the love and care you could.
Hope you are doing OK. My cat just had to go in for minor surgery, and that is bad enough. Thankfully, when you are ready, there are millions of other kitties out there looking for loving people like you. Take care!
ok, so when i was typing the original message Monday, i must have accidently pushed enter or something to post it when i wasnt done, then i couldnt get back on here to fix it, so for those of you who care here is the rest of my story
so she wouldnt get any better, and she wouldnt let me feed her anymore and her seizures kept getting worse, so Monday I did the hardest thing ever i had to do. I drove her to the vet so they could put her to sleep. i cried the whole way there and when i was there and the whole way back. i still feel bad about it, but i just couldnt watch her suffer anymore.
here she is
:'(I still miss you Fluffer. My bed feels empty without you. I miss you getting me up at 4 a.m. to let you out.....
