The Cuddler, a photo by dbinatx on Flickr.

This was the The Cuddler (who we named Peanut because he was the smallest kitten) on Sunday. On Monday he started to take a turn for the worst, very lethargic, the weight started to look like it was falling off quick, didn't want to play with his brothers. I took him into the vet on Tuesday and they said he had a parasite and gave us medicine. He started to eat again, and it appeared that he was starting to come back to his normal self. Unfortunately on Thursday I came home from lunch to find a very sick kitty and rushed him back to the vet. The vet took one look at him and said they were going to put him down. Peanut was only in our lives for 2 weeks and I wish we had been able to nurse him back to health but I understand sometimes that isn't possible. Rest in Peace little kitty, We loved you while we had you and we hope we gave you a comfortable home for the last 2 weeks!
