Porsha is very sick...

My kitten Porsha is only six weeks old, and right now she is unconscious on my chest. 

The vet thought she just had a minor case of diarrhea, but in the past three hours she's deteriorated to the point of shallow breathing, minimal blinking, and no responses to my voice. I've tried every vet within a half hour drive, and since I already spent my paycheque on vet visits, no one will see her for free. Our best guess is allergies to her diarrhea medication or distemper (infection of the gut).

We are trying to make it for another 8 hours, when our usual vet is on call and might see us for free (or cheaper than over $200), but for now I'm just hoping for the next breath, and the next.

Please let me know any way I can keep her alive (hopefully), or at least ease her way to the other side. She's so young, life just isn't fair sometimes. 

Also, sometimes she gives a whimper or meow, even though she is completely unconscious. Anyone know why?

Send your loving thoughts to my little babycat <3

I'm so sorry. The only advice I can think of is to take her to an ER vet and release custody of her. In a case like that you won't ever know what happens, but at least she will get help. I'm so sorry you and your beloved little baby are going through this.

Porsha passed away at 7:10 this morning, November 4th, 2012.

She was very loving, affectionate, calm, quiet and sweet. 

My dog, Booboo, cat Chevy, and I will all miss her very much. 

I wear her little pink collar around my left wrist, as I will for the rest of the week, until her tag gets put into her grave marking stone. 

My bed, where she actually passed on peacefully, will forever feel a little empty without her.

RIP Porsha <3

I'm so sorry for your loss of your little baby Porsha. At least, thanks to you, she knew love.

Lilya,

I am so very sorry.  I didn't have a chance to follow your thread last night. 

In having her pass peacefully on your bed, you have witnessed a most beautiful but heartbreaking moment in the cycle of your beloved kitties life.  That is a blessing!  Don't be surprised if you don't have 'visits' from her, especially in the beginning.  Pay attention to those little ways she's letting you know that she is still a part of you

Lilya, I am going to lock this thread now. I am sorry for your loss. When you feel up to it, you might want to post a tribute to this sweet little cat in our Crossing The Bridge Forum. I am so sorry.
