my sweet pippi

for those of you who have read about my sweet little kitten, pippi, that i found and was bottle-feeding, i am sad to say that she passed away on Monday morning. I had just taken her to the vet at 8am because she was having a problem going to the bathroom but started to get diarrhea with a little bit of blood. the vet gave her some antibiotics and said to get a heating pad. so i ran across the street to the store, got the heating pad and everything was fine...she was loving that heating pad, she snuggled up with her little koala stuffed animal & we headed to work for the day. around 10:30am, i got her up to feed her again. i was holding her in my hands and snuggling her little nose and it happened. it was a truly terrible feeling and just writing this is bringing tears to my eyes. i just wanted to say it so no one wondered why i stopped writing about her. she was well cared for in the 9 days that i had her and she got lots of love and affection. shame on that man who just tossed her out by the road to die. i did what i could for that sweet kitten, but sometimes nature takes its course.
