    My father got a systemic infection and he had to wait and wait and wait for death to come.
    What you did for the kitty was brave and compassionate and responsible. I honor your empathy.

    Re: How can people be so crule?

    Angela,

    You did the right thing, and I would have done the same..

    Its doubly tough to see what some people who have personal problems take them out on a poor defenseless animal. This may or may not have been the case, but still..

    REMEMBER THIS:

    You are your own person, and YOU can make a difference in the world.

    You did with this kitten, and you should be proud thru your sadness that you helped.

    If you hadn't found him dear and taken him to that vet he might well have lived. Another day maybe - a day spent in the baking heat, in pain and distress, abandoned, starving, thirsty and alone. That's no way for any animal to pass from this life is it.

    What you did was a kindness to a poor creature by giving it the dignity and peace of a gentle ending surrounded by caring people.

    You did good.

    Re: How can people be so crule?

    Thank you all. When I was sitting in my car I named him Midnight. I thought he should have a name. The vet was very wonderful. I am still overwhelmed to know he was that way for at least 3 DAYS. He was shaking so hard and staring at me with those huge green eyes when I picked him up. It keeps playing over and over in my head. I don't think I will ever forget him looking at me when he was on the examing table. He looked so tired. I could feel his ribs and backbone. Midnight will never be forgotten and forever loved.
