The hardest part of having cats is known they don't live long
I'm so sorry for your loss.
A few years ago, my roommate and I brought in a little tabby kitten we found stuck on our back fence. He was so full of worms his stomach was round, but he was a sweet, sweet boy. All he wanted was to snuggle with my roommate or my cat at the time, or our dog. He purred constantly. We dewormed him and got him vaccinated. He played, ate, acted completely normal. We took him in for his neuter when he was old enough, dropped him off at the clinic and then a few hours later we got the call.
Not that he was done and waiting. He was gone, he didn't wake up from the surgery, and when they looked to figure out why they discovered his heart was in an awful state. Had we not taken him in, he would have died in days or weeks. It was absolutely devastating. It really is a silent killer. I'm honestly so scared to take Storm in for her spay when she's ready, she's a little brown tabby who purrs in my arms too.
I am so sorry that you've been made to experience this too. I hope you're able to find peace in knowing that you did everything you could for your sweet girl.

It is absolutely devastating
Rest you gentle, Delilah, dream you deep. Your purr echos in someone's heart forever.
Their little lives are flames in our darkness, burning OH SO bright, but never long enough. Where there is love, an eternity is not long enough. But they teach us such a valuable lesson, that we can love with our whole heart, lose that love, and go on to love again. Delilah lived, breathed and had her being (as did your other cats) wrapped in your love. As she stepped through the Gate between this Adventure and her Next Great Adventure, your love walked with her to guide her way. Now, from her home in That Place Where All Things Are Know, she sends her love, translated and purified into Love, back to walk with you down through all of your days. Because Love abides. Always, forever, Love abides.
I see you in my mind's eye with all of your cats at your heels, whispering, "You are not alone, we are here."

I am so very sorry for you loss of Delilalh along with so many or your other, so soon. It's a lot to ask anyone to bear. My heart breaks for you.
You couldn't have known - and did the right thing. I hope you truly know that. It absolutely is a silent killer.
She was positively beautiful.
XOXOXOXOXO

I am so sorry for your loss of Delilah and for all of the recent passings that you have had to experience. As others have said, this is a silent killer and I have lost two cats in the same way. There is nothing that you missed or could have done to prevent this. You have taken excellent care of your cats even at great stress and expense to yourself and the love you gave them made their lives wonderful.

Today would have been delilalh s birthday.
So sad
She would have been 8
Her sister millie and brother peaches are still here to celebrate their 8th birthday but sadly without their sister
Life can be so cruel
I'm so frightened of losing more cats
I'm very lucky to still have Toby he's 14 years 7 months and I can't stop worrying and thinking how much longer will I have him
Thank you everyone who support a me through my losses
Cats are all I have
They are dwindling now as dying

I’m so sorry about all of your losses. So many in such a short time… I’m not quite sure what to say to help… but… just know they’re okay now. They’re on the other side of that bridge, watching over you. Here’s a picture of my gremlin kitty on the hearth- she hopes you feel better.

**HUGE Hugs** Losing one is bad enough. Losing seven is gut-wrenching. **Hugs again** You did what you could considering the situation.

It hurts
Love is supposed to, sweetie. That’s how you know its love. But it’s worth it, every time. Why were we given hearts if we weren’t meant to use them, over and over?
