Thank you very much for your kind words and the sharing of some of your experiences. Again, I'm happy to know I'm not alone. I guess I always just thought my babies were invincible. So silly of me to think that. I'm slowly starting to accept she is gone, or come to terms with it. It'll be two weeks tomorrow, and though I still tear up, I think the happy memories are what's keeping me afloat. Whenever I go out to her grave, that's when it truly hits me and I cry, but being in here with all my other rugrats and taking care of them.. that's helping too. I found an old video from a couple years ago with Tina mostly in it, we were putting up our Christmas tree and her fat self was laying on one of the branches on the floor, gnawing away at it, her arms wrapped ever so tightly around it. She was such a cute cat and I'm so happy to have spent five years with her, and grateful I found some old videos of her. Fly high, TEEEEENAAA:heart3: (((((((( )))))))):heart3: Fly free, whole, healthy, and forever Loved, sweet beauty Athena!
Heartfelt condolences for your loss. How very many I have endured! so while I can't know exactly how you feel, I do empathize with your pain and loss.
Over the years, I have lost one cat to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which is a heart condition; I have lost another very suddenly and unexpectedly to what was probably a brain aneurism; another had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and I elected for his vet to assist in his ascendance; and one sweet little girl passed away while at her vet for a very bad respiratory infection.
There is never an easy way to understand what is simply beyond our understanding. In time, may you find comfort in the many sweet memories of your time together with Tina, and in the knowledge that she watches over you, healthy and Loved, until you are reunited in due time.
