LaLa was, to put it plainly, the runt of the litter. She was so much tinier than all the rest of the kittens, even as they grew older, she was just a slender cat. From the very beginning she was always active and the most adventurous, climbing out of the drawer where they were born, climbing up the sides of the pop up kennel, and generally exploring the world. She also looked the most like her daddy in coloring, being a beautiful brownish grey tabby.
To lose a beloved pet is a horrible blow to a child. It's hard no matter what, even if the pet is old and infirm, and there was advance warning, but to have a perfectly healthy kitten, barely 7 months old go to sleep and just not wake up is not only heartbreaking, it's bewildering. I have four very confused and very devastated children who just want their baby girl back.
