I'm so very sorry to hear that. ;-; but you did 
your best to help them, and at least they were 
comfortable in the end. All of my ctas have been 
cats that our neighbors either left behind when 
they moved, or abused. One of them only lived for 
3 years because he had a fatal disease, but it 
made us feel better that we had at least made his 
life loving and full of care.

I'm glad to know there are others watching out 
for the poor kitties too. :) We'll be taking in 
another kitten in a couple of weeks, I can't wait 
to welcome her home. ^_^
