RIP Crash and Dolby The two kittens died this morning at the vet. They went in for a regular declawing. The vet has 36 years of experience and has never lost a pet, but Crash had a heart attack AFTER the procedure when he was resting in his cage (they had a heart monitor hooked up and was a few feet away from him when it went off, but couldn't save him). Dolby turned out to be one of those rare cats that is allergic to gas and died within a few minutes before anyone even touched him. They were from different litters. The vet sent tissue samples off to see if they can turn up any reason why Crash died. I notified the organization we got Dolby from so they could alert the other families that adopted his litter-mates not to use gas for any procedures just in case. It's bad enough to lose one, but two in one day is not cool.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 11-29-2007 02:41 AM                        Not cool at all. Three cats in such a short amount of time. My condolences.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 11-29-2007 04:21 AM                        Oh dear; very sorry to hear that. And 13 wasn't particularly old for Kitty, either.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-29-2007 01:08 PM                     omg, I don't even know what to say. That is horrible. I'm so sorry Brad. =(  |  IP: Logged Frank Dubrois Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 896 From: Cleveland, OH Registered: Mar 2005 posted 11-29-2007 02:04 PM                    Everytime I take my pets to the vet for any kind of proceedure, they ask if I want him tested to see if he is allergic to the antestesia. I always do it the first time. With my new dog, I decided not to test him. I will be testing all of my pets now.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-29-2007 02:30 PM                        So Brad, using the same mathematical formula, you'll apparently have to get 4 cats the next time -- or possibly 6. (Which isn't a bad thing!) Condolences on your loss...I don't have a cat now but I still think of my growin' up cat, "Whitefoot," often.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-29-2007 08:53 PM                  Gosh Brad, I too am at a loss for words about the untimely passing of your "new babies". My heartfelt condolences go out to both you and Chris. >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Clint Koch Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1435 From: San Luis Obispo, CA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 11-29-2007 10:15 PM                     Brad, Sorry to hear about the kittens.

I'm very sorry, Brad. That's terrible.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 12-06-2007 03:01 AM                     Take two We picked up these two tonight. (One is wearing a temporary collar so we could tell them apart.) Their mother abandoned them at 2 weeks and they have been taken care of by a very nice and knowledgeable elderly lady who has devoted her entire house to saving cats. They are between 4-5 weeks old. We haven't given them names yet. For the next 3-4 weeks we have to keep them separated from our other cat, The Dude, for his protection since they are too young to have their first shots. This one (purple collar) took to me right away. All he wants is to be held to make him happy. This one took immediately to Chris and is quite the furball of energy. Here he plays... ...and plays some more... ...and continues playing until Chris gave up and let him have his victory moment. They seem very happy to be here and are both extremely loving.  |  IP: Logged Rick Hunter Master Film Handler Posts: 452 From: Melbourne, Australia Registered: Feb 2003 posted 12-06-2007 03:58 AM                     Good on 'ya..

You say the breed really like humans and it seems to be true.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 12-06-2007 12:59 PM                     Russian Blue. I don't know what it is about this breed, but they are the best cats ever. You should get a pair.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 12-06-2007 04:43 PM                        I can't seem to find any on Amazon.com or eBay.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 12-06-2007 08:41 PM                        OK Brad, just for you (click for bigger versions):  |  IP: Logged
