Goodbye,, sigh.

super duper itsy bitsy teeny tiny kitten
Kim took in a tiny foster kitten named Dunkin. As you can see in the photo above, he was a frail baby. In the time he was with Kim, he made vast improvements. He got stronger, ate better, and even opened one eye up. Kim was an attentive mom. She gave him love, she kept warm. She syringe fed him every two hours, even through the wee hours of the night. Kim had to fly out for work today, so she left him the capable hands of another veteran foster mom. Hours after she left home, she learned that little dunkin passed away.

It's a very sad fact, but sometimes, no matter how hard you try,and how much you care, there are just some kitties that aren't going to make it. The odds are stacked against them from the start.

How lucky he was though to know so much love, in such a brief lifetime.

Bye bye little D.
