Dear Kat, thank you for your kind words - I do very much appreciate it. I did actually sent an email off to explain what happened - I did not want to remind myself of what I did to a precious baby, but I realize if I could ever benefit anyone on the list to avoid doing what I did, I think that's probably the least I could do --

You tried to help the baby - the best you knew how to at the time - no one here would EVER condemn you for that. It was not intentional - you are too good of a meowmy for it to have been on purpose. Sometimes these things just happen and all we can do is understand what happened, learn from it, and gently forgive ourselves for our mistakes. Our kitties understand this and they don't hold it against us - they know you would never hurt them on purpose. Please be gentle with yourself and let us know the details when you can type thru your tears. I am sending you gentle hugs, and gentle prayers for "Bella's Baby" to find my Baby Callie at the Bridge. I'm so very sorry.
