Sad news today for Kim Kardashian fans and animal lovers alike: Kim K’s little kitten Mercy has passed away. The adorable cat was a gift from the reality star’s boyfriend Kanye West, and her abrupt passing has left Kardashian in mourning.
“Rest in peace my little Mercy,” Kim wrote on her Twitter account recently, linking to a page with several pictures of the cat and some touching words from the most famous of the Kardashian sisters.
“It is with deep sadness that I have to tell you all that my kitten, Mercy, has passed away. My heart is completely broken,” she writes. “When I first got Mercy, I had never lived with a cat before and so I had no idea that I was allergic. I thought that it might pass, but after a few weeks I decided to go visit two separate allergists, one of whom said my allergies wouldn’t get any better unless I started taking injections.”
Despite Kim’s body rejecting the cat, however, her spirit insisted that she do everything in her power to make sure the cat remained happy. “I had fallen SO in love with Mercy that I wanted to try everything I could to keep her, but I didn’t think it was safe to resort to injections, and it wasn’t fair on Mercy, because I couldn’t play with her or give her as much attention as I wanted to,” Kim explains. “Mercy deserved a mom who could really give her the time and affection she deserved. I knew that Sydney, Khloe’s assistant, who had recently lost a cat she had loved and cared for for 17 years, would be the perfect mom for Mercy and Sydney was so excited to have Mercy as her own!”
The apparent happy ending, however, has since yielded to a sad end for the cat. “Sydney gave Mercy a loving home, but after a couple of weeks Mercy got really sick and Sydney had to rush her to the vet,” Kim explains. “They discovered she had a stomach problem that we weren’t aware of. Her stomach had filled with fluid, and the doctor said she had a rare stomach cancer and that there was nothing we could do for her.”
“Poor little Mercy died the very next day,” Kim adds. “It broke not only my heart that little Mercy died at only four months old, but Sydney’s too.”
“Mercy was a gentle and loving kitten, and we are all going to miss her so much,” Kim concludes. “Thanks to Sydney for making Mercy’s short life one filled with love.”
Mercy was named after Kanye West’s song, “Mercy.” It’s so hard to lose a pet, and our hearts go out to Kim. Despite her untimely passing, at least it seems that she was well cared for and was very loved in her brief life.
