What happened to the little baby?

Sadly, River passed away not too long after the Johnstons added her to their family. In an episode of 7 Little Johnstons, Elizabeth Johnston said that she checked on River in the garage and realized that she had hurt her leg and that her bone was visible. The family had no idea what happened, but the kitty appeared to be in pain.

After Amber, Anna, Elizabeth, and Emma Johnston rushed her to the animal hospital, they were informed that the cat had a broken femur but also had something wrong with her heart.

Outside of the animal hospital, Elizabeth explained that River’s heart gave out before surgery even began. The girls weren’t expecting this, especially because it only seemed like she had broken her leg. But unfortunately, they didn’t get to say goodbye to her before she passed away.

  1. First off Troy and Amber had NO BUSINESS going through Josh’s phone even though he is living with them he is a grown adult. Parrents must realize they can’t choose their adult childrens partner because 99.9% of the time it will create a rift in their child’s relation ship. Let things go on their own and it most always works out. To many times Amber thinks she knows everything.
