Hey everyone. So looks like we wound up with some bad news. This isn't the super bum out thread so I'll just keep this short. We lost Vienna last night. It appears fading kitten syndrome is a real bitch. We're obviously pretty crestfallen and this has been an immensely difficult night. She passed in my hands, she was warm, we were both with her. Monty is doing OK. He tried to finish her dinner, and that was about the only thing he seemed concerned with, so yeah... just being a cat.

We're gonna take a break from fostering for a bit, and though we're currently pretty poor, we're gonna pass along some coin to the mdscpa. Check them out, it's a wonderful no-kill facility that does a lot for our wee furry counterparts and if you have the means and wish to pass something along in honor of little V's short but sweet life, it would be most appreciated.



Oh and I suppose it goes without saying, but pictures of happy teeny tiny kittens would be most appreciated.

That sucks. She was the cutest kitten in the thread, I loved all the pictures you posted here.

Im really sorry for your loss.

Oh and I forgot, just in case anyone did want to donate in her memory to http://www.mdspca.org/give/ , the name she was given from them was Pepper, we've always given the babies we look after our own names, and Vienna just fit for us.

She seemed to be a good catte....and she died knowing she was loved, safe, and warm. What more can someone ask for? You did good with her...don't doubt that.

I don't know why Chili but the news of Vienna's passing made me horrifically sad and I've spent the better part of an hour crying over an animal I never knew, I am terribly sorry for your loss.



Here's my newest Luna, please ignore the horrifically dirty tablet behind her.

You were probably just due for a good cry, that kind of thing happens to me a lot.

Your empathy is appreciated, and I'm glad that the silly little pictures I took of her made people happy enough that when she left us it was strongly felt in the other direction.

Oh no, I'm so sorry about sweet little V. She sure was loved though, by you guys and a whole bunch of random internet strangers. :unsmith: I'm pretty broke myself but when I get paid I'll throw a couple bucks to the Maryland SPCA in her honor.

On a happier note, I adopted a four year old German Spitz, officially called Dreamer but renamed Li'l Poot by my daughter:



He's a former show dog, complete with championship and glamour shots:
