Whisper died this afternoon and I am still stunned and saddened by her sudden departure. She had crawled back behind a piece of furniture and I thought at first when I found her there, that she was stuck. But after what happened, I know she went back there to die.

She was found at 10:00 this morning and gone by 3:00 she went quickly which is a saving grace but it doesn’t make me feel better at all. I did the best I could with supportive fluids and assist feedings, but in the end, her eyes were open but her will to live was gone and she faded quick.

I laid her in the forest as the land is still covered with frost and snow and I broke apart afterwards as she was such a sweet kitty.

When they handed her over to me, the husband told me that he had her vaccinated, then a few days later he let on that he lied about her vaccinations. I don’t know if vaccinating her would have saved her, but it might have helped, depending on how long she had been incubating this dreadful disease.

I’m devastated about this turn of events and I know that everything happens for a reason. I am just not sure what the reason behind this death will turn out to be.

There is a candle in the window for her to light her way- goodbye sweet girl-you are free from pain and running Heaven’s grasses with your friends.
