I'm so sorry Caspian didn't make it. This is heartbreaking. But thank you for doing all you could for the little guy. What a cute name for a sweet little kitten too. Rest peacefully Caspian.
sad story....at least caspian didn't die alone, you were kind enough to care for him until the end. caspian probably had a heart defect....the vet should reimburse you.
My kitten was just taken to the vet today and the vet said he has hypoglycemia. He can't sit-up or stand, he doesn't want to eat or drink. and he's confined right now. I really wish he'd be okay.
Like I said in the video info (to the right of the video), this pet store does not order kittens from kitten mills. They take in local unwanted litters from people who don't want to have to bring them to the shelter (that kills nearly 99% of the felines that come in). They make the owners bring the kittens to a veterinarian for an exam before they can bring the kittens in. The store then gives the vaccinations, dewormer and Frontline before selling them.
The pet store does not pay for any of the kittens it takes in. The owners are required to pay for a vet check to at least give them some responsibility for the unwanted kittens they bring into the world.
Most pet stores however, I would agree have sick animals because they buy from large scale commercial breeders and the animals change hands several times from breeder to broker to distributor to pet store before heading to a new home. That is not the case with Caspian though.
If your kitten is lethargic take him to the vet stat cause with a low blood sugar they can die quick. Or give him karo syrup but, a vet is best for body temp reasons.
This kitten was taken to the veterinarian, and they tested him for everything. He was perfectly healthy. He died from "fading kitten disease." He did not have low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or they'd have been able to save him.
OMG, this just happened to me. I got this kitten two days ago and he was 9 weeks old. I did not know but, when kittens even 9 weeks old get stressed out their body heat can drop and they cant keep up their blood sugar and they die. He died in just a few hours. I went to bed thinking he was a lazy cat with worms and woke up to a deceased kitten.I cant believe this..my head hurts from all the tears.
So sad..we adopted a kitten earlier this year, and the same thing happened. He was cleared of all health problems yet one night he suddenly was unable to walk or eat and was dead within two days. We took him back to the vet and they chalked it up to fading kitten syndrome...simply put, they had no idea what happened to him. Three months later, we lost an adult cat Seamus to cancer. 2007 was a pretty suck-all year for us to say the least. Our hearts go out to you and yours.
Rest in peace little guy. :-(. My hat's off to you for taking the time and money to try and save the little kitten. You did all you could and more than some people would have.
Aw, this video made me teary-eyed, seeing that poor little kitten looking so miserable. I read the info, and I'm sorry to hear he passed away. But at least he was in your comfort when he took his final breath. God bless you for trying to save the little guy.

its because cats from the pet store normally come from animal farms--
how they breed lots of chickens in one cramped space, they also do with cats and dogs--
:( so sad, casper's such a pretty kitty too
