This vet group knows that I have enough knowledge to be very up front with me. I also have been hands on with some procedures with a few of my cats that do better with me around then with just techs and the vet.
I'll give all of mine extra hugs tonight thinking of your furbaby. Although my blue persian has been gone for 3 years now, each of these guys have a special way of carving their own spots in our hearts.

I am no cat guru by no stretch of the word, but I have learned and studied a great deal since having these guys. The first litter she had, I was terrified because she wasn't doing very well.... I called a vet and asked what to do and they walked me thru what to do and how to help her birth her babies and from then on, when they would have babies, myself or my 15 yr old son or both would sit with them and help until they were finished. Some we would have to break that membrane and get them breathing and some were fine..... but wow, that was a learning experience all on it's own.
This lady treated me like I was a human and not a paycheck and she treated my cat as such too. The one thing that impressed me was that she cared enough to ask about her, what she was scared of and if she was touchy in any place over another and so on... and she let me hold her while she examined her..... which helped Jordis a great deal. The last Vet would send us out of the room, which didn't set well with me at all...
My little Dilute Calico just had a Blue Persian in January right before our bad ice storm and that little guy survived that, I think he could about survive anything. He was only a couple of weeks old when we had to deal with all that cold and shit..... he is a character and a half in such a small little package. lol
I haven't "lost" one yet, but the mere thought of losing her crushed me, so I can only imagine how you feel. I am so sorry for your losses, it has to be so tough.
