My two most recent cats (rest their souls) were opposites in this regard. Allie was the elder, yet she never got used to thunderstorms. Once it started to rumble (sometimes even beyond my perception) she would go hide either under the bed or in the pantry. Only after the storm had passed a while...
Thank you for the touching replies. :rbheart: I always knew this time would come and its been brutal to endure the burden, and as much as I knew it would be one of my worst because of my bond with her, I knew I had to be brave and compassionate when the time came.
Sometimes it can be so...
Thursday evening my ex and I had to put down the cat we adopted 10 years ago and I've taken sole care of her the last 1 1/2 years. She was my little bestie and the sweetest tempered cat I've known. She was about 13-14, and had developed very aggressive lymphoma; her lymph nodes were very...
It's been a week now, yet its still so fresh. Just yesterday I broke down as if we had just received that fateful call. We manage each day a little better than the day before, and while we're both still struggling with some guilt, we're not holding on to it as much. Heart disease can strike a...
What a beautiful tribute for a beautiful cat. 22 years is an amazing run, and I can only imagine the strength of the bond after all that time. You clearly gave him a wonderful life. After all, he picked you. :) Hang in there, he would want you to be happy.
Wow, I am so sorry to hear about your loss of that helpless little kitten. How terrible. My heart goes out to you.
I agree with the above: That cat needs to be dealt with. It's clearly a danger, and if its doing that to your kitten, it's doing it to other small animals as well.
It's amazing the profound effect these little ones can have on our lives, even turning the entire direction of our lives on the path it's supposed to go. I'll always be so grateful for him and I cherish every moment and memory we shared, even when he was being an annoying little booger. We were...
So sorry for your loss. Pippin was an adorable kitten and beautiful adult. You clearly loved him dearly, and vice versa. The "sock prey" thing is so cute and funny. May he rest in peace.
We lost our boys the same day... I'm experiencing the same feelings of guilt as well, but we know we did what we could. It's so hard, but don't forget family and friends in a time like this. Whatever you do, don't bottle it up. Let it out.
Fred looked so cute and sweet. He's still with you.
Hello everyone, Jeff here. I wish this wasn't how I was introducing myself but our Moony of just 2 years of age passed two days ago early Saturday morning on January 14th, 2017. Tears fill my eyes as I write this.
My wife and I are completely heartbroken and shocked by this sudden loss. He was...
