Oh Bert, I'm so sorry RIP, Jester.
Was it Cytopoint she got? If so, it doesn't put stress on kidneys.
Will you have an autopsy done?
I've been 'guilty' of throwing large amounts of money at vets to try and fix ailing pets, even when my heart told me it was probably fruitless to do so...but sometimes money is better spent on an autopsy...not just to try and answer the "what and why" questions that can burn and fester in our own hearts, but also because the results can often help educate the vets as well. If absolutely nothing else good comes of that hole they leave behind when they go, sometimes the vets are left with a better idea of what to look for when it happens again, and someone else's can be saved.
