July 19, 2000

This week was pretty good up until now. We lost one of my little foster kittens tonight. He was smaller than the other but up until yesterday he seemed to be doing so much better. And then tonight I got up to feed them at 3:30 and he was gone. I don't even know if I can get back to sleep now. I'm too upset. He was my favorite out of the two. He had an attitude but I loved how he'd just purr after I gave him a bath and wrapped him up. I spent so much time with him since he was smaller and I wanted to give him a better chance but I suppose it wasn't enough. We were probably going to keep him at least, if not both of them. His brother has some sort of parasite but isn't as sick. They were both supposed to go to the vet in the morning.

Nothing much else happening, I suppose. Nothing important, anyway. Or maybe I'm just too upset to think of it. I guess I should try to get some more sleep now.
