| Bastet and Cairo... Gone. Standing in target my blackberry went "bleep bleep", alerting me that an email had arrived... An email from Bas and Cairo's breeder. She was writing to tell me that my girls had passed. I burst out in tears standing right there in target. I just didn't understand how in the world I was reading this... My girls were gone??? they're supposed to be home in a few weeks! She had a visitor who they believe brought something into her home and infected the kittens, the adults are FINE. As best as her and the vet can figure, they contracted "I don't know what" and didn't inquire... then devloped a secondairy infection "phenmonia" which overtook them... She lost both litters! well... 4 kittens died and 3 are fighting still, at the vets, but are not expected to make it. I'm NOT upset with her at all. I am just devistated over the loss of my girls. I put my deposit down when they were 6 days old! I have watched them grow to 10 weeks... that over 2 months of loving these girls.. I have their pictures in my wallet and framed pitcures on my entry way table... My mother has pitcures of them up at her work! These girls were part of the family already! I just can't believe that they are gone! How does that work??? I'm really not ok with this. If I throw a fit can it just not be? I mean.. its really not right! The girls are so special! And they really are so amazing together. Its really just not fair. Am I being silly??? I'm really upset over this... I just wish I could go pick them up right now. So I guess I won't be posting any updates or welcome home pictures. this really sucks guys! It just really sucks! I can't even imagian what the girls went through... It just kills me to think about it! Why didn't I know sooner, my vet could have saved them?? Maybe?? I would have done anything! I'd have given them everything, stoped at nothing to save them! Damn it!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I am so sorry you lost them before you even got them. It is so sad to wait and count the hours and then find out it is over. I'm sure you already loved them so much. I am crying for your loss and throwing a fit for you!

| I'm so sorry for your loss. Of course, you are not being silly. You are obviously a very caring person and you had already invested your heart in your kitties.

| I am so very sorry. Your heart was was taken the day you chose them to be part of your family and it is inevitable that this would be painful. I am so very sorry.... |

| Oh I'm so so sorry. How devastating. Big hugs. I know it's not the same, or anywhere near it, but can you some day, when you are ready, get 2 more from another litter?

| Megan, keep the "x" avitar!!! It makes me smile everytime I see it!!!!! Wit, I got back to back emails from her... the bad news and the paypal refund notification! She was so freaked out about telling me that she didn't waste any time refunding my deposits! : ( I felt soooo bad, what a stand up gal!!! I'm super impressed! As far as another litter... I AM NEVER WAITING AGAIN! I am looking for an OLDER kitten! One who is fully vacinated and tested and ready to go! Full gaurentee, and health cert and I will have the first vet apt lined up for the day he or she comes home!!! Just like I did with Pixie. Looking at all the different kittens out there has done two things... Made me very sad... and taken my mind off of my girls... Yeah.. I know confusing huh??? It depends on which site I'm looking at, lol But for the most part its been good to look around. Hubby told me it would help to look, maybe I would find another special baby... But so far.. none are as amazing as my girls... Beautiful yes, but my girls were AMAZING! I'lll keep looking though... its keeping me busy and Pixie is enjoying the views! LOL

| That's so SAD and almost unreal for something so bizarre to happen so far along! I wonder what it could have been? How awful for you, waiting all this time and already making them part of your family, but oh my gosh..the poor breeder! To lose all her kitties that way! I'm so sorry for you all, and I hope you find your new little additions to your family. I believe everything happens for a reason, so hopefully there's a rainbow on the other side of this dark cloud for you!

| I'm sorry that happened. I brought a new yorkie male into my home and he carried some type of bacteria in with him and 3 days later every one of my dogs were deathly ill, vomiting and explosive diarrhea. It was horrible and I was frantic with worry. After vet and meds and tons of cleaning up they all survived. The vet said it was a bacteria that came from the breeders home that her dogs were used to and mine not. |
