My Friend Has Moved On

As many of you know, I found a little Siamese kitten several weeks ago outside of a Burger King. I picked him up, took him home, and nursed him back to health. What I didn't tell you is that little Zero got sick a week ago.

I found him laying in my bedroom on the bed. Wallie was acting strange, and when I went to give Zero his medicine, he didn't move or respond to anything.

Zero died today a little after noon.

Sad to hear, but you can now use this as an excuse to get that cute little kitten you've always wanted! Got to look on the bright side.

My condolences. You did what you could for him, perhaps it was inevitable. Always sad to lose a companion....

very sad at your loss.

But you made that kitten's last few weeks a life of love and safety.

You did a noble thing and you should be proud of yourself, as many of us here are proud of you.

Sad to hear, he passed away.
Zero may passed away but he at least passed away in a warm caring Home.

As the others said, at least he passed in a nice, friendly, warm place and not out on the streets. Best of all, you opened your doors to a lost little soul and put forth your best efforts in making him well. That in itself says a lot about you.
