Damnit, that sucks!
I'm sorry for all of you who have lost kitty friends this year.
I have a genuine question for you all.
Every spring and early summer, I find litters of kittens on my property.
What does it mean when you find exactly 9 solid black kittens?
Not long after I found the first litter, I broke my ankle, but I also found a $20 bill on some old jorts.
Please halp!

Today was this guy's last day. He has been having thyroid and kidney issues for several months that we have been treating. A couple of weeks ago he lost his appetite and we were given an appetite stimulant to give him. I left for an FSAE competition and he seemed okay but when I came back yesterday my girlfriend had already taken him to the ICU. He hadn't eaten in 3 days and didn't have the energy to even stand anymore. He refused to eat and treatment wasn't working to keep his kidneys in check. We said our final goodbyes this morning and had him put to sleep. He passed away on my lap.
I'm torn.

We lost our last cat a few years ago to diabetes, it is never easy when they leave us. :-/ It has taken a while for our household to warm up to getting another but I finally broke down today, my wife has wanted a cat for a while.
We just brought home this nugget, Violet. My sister is a vet tech and saved her and the rest of the litter. She is the runt at 2lbs and 8 weeks old today.

Because cats and dogs have been scientifically proven to be the same creature (Ingmanson, D. E. and Wallace, W. J., 1985, Oceanography: An Introduction, Wadsworth, Belmont, CA, 530 p.), RIP Duke:
