13. It is heartbreaking.

She's a fighter, that's for sure. I have her right with me because I'm obsessed with making sure that she's breathing. I am getting her to take some replacement milk, water and small doses of Pedialyte. Next I'll see if she will try some pate. She's sleeping a lot but will wake up and it's obvious she
just wants to get back to being a kitten. Unfortunately she doesn't quite have the strength.

I was thrilled to see that she finally produced a normal poo, even if it did get stuck in her tail hair. It wasn't any easier to clean up than what she was producing earlier but at least it was solid.

Tonight will probably be the turning point, one way or the other. If she doesn't show improvement I'll continue to keep her comfortable but not give up on her. I will start the process of mentally preparing myself for another loss.
