    I Adopted 2 Kittens And They Both Died. They Couldn't Walk And Wouldn't Move. Can You Help?

    They wouldn't eat or drink and were fine that morning. They had all the normal shots including Rabies. They were only 4 months old. The vets cant seem to find out what the problem is. I was told to wait 4-6 months to get more cats. Please help

    I would ask your veterinarian why you were told to wait 4-6 months before getting a new cat.  This makes me wonder if they were suspecting an infectious disease.  Common infectious diseases in kittens include feline leukemia, FIV (kitty aids), and panleukopenia.  If possible I would have these kittens autopsied to determine the cause of death--this will tell if it is safe to bring a new cat home. 
    A toxic exposure would be high on my list of concerns since both kittens died at the same time and may have experienced neurological issues.

    It was parvovirus. The second kitten tested positive. I will disinfect my house and wait to get more kittens. Parvo is pretty hardy and I don't want to take any chances. Thank you for your concern and your answers.
