I know there is no evidence but the baby did suffer the exact symptoms that the HSE leaflet said could be caused by an infection which can be caused by cat litter.It is one of the few infections that can infect a baby in the womb,mostly babies are protected within the womb from viruses.

I have always wondered is this what happened and did my friend ever consider it herself or would the hospital staff have mentioned this could have happened because of the cat.

It is obviously something that can happen if the HSE were placing notices in ante natal clinics and I don't see why anyone should be calling another poster a troll for mentioning it.

Maybe your friend shook hands with someone who'd changed cat litter and hadn't washed their hands and 3 cats were staring in the window?

Ms Doubtfire1 I usually get mine done at home too as much nicer and less stressful and surrounded by their buddies, but if in the vets and rigged upto a drip then kinder to do it then and there as vein already to go, transporting a sick cat home which is stressful too then getting the vet to try and find a vein again is not always easy! It just depends on how sick they are, where they are i guess and how with it the animal is too, as long as the owner is with them then I think that's the important thing. We used to get folk drop off pets to be pts and it was always pretty stressful and sad for the animal being surrounded by strangers at the last.

I know it's been a few months since I posted. I couldn't let Ziggy go. He had a huge amount of spirit left and I knew it wasn't his time. I gave him lots of love, time and affection. On Monday after pre arranging the appointment I brought him to the vets. He had been soiling his bed and was very weak. I was absolutely devastated but I'm told I did the right thing. I just wanted to let ye know

You are a horrible person and I have reported your post. Don't have anything more to say to you really.

I won't even comment on the little scrote above but I reported also.

Cerocco, I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it must have been for you to say your final goodbye. You know your pet best so trust that the decisions you made were the right ones for him and take comfort in that. I'm sure he appreciated the extra time he had with you and all the extra love that came with it just as much as you did. Take care x

So sorry, but you did the right thing for him. He'll always be with you. I always put lots of photo's around, I find that comforting.

Take care
