I'm very, very sorry. We lost our Tasha yesterday to kidney cancer. Diagnosed a year ago, and she's been hanging on, but the other day...just too much for her. π’
I couldn't stand to see her waste away from not eating. Not being able to walk. Panting from the pain.
It's never easy.
Vet asked me if I wanted to come back next week...and I said no. It would have been selfish to keep her suffering just so I could delay my pain for a couple of days.
It's the right thing, but I still feel horrible, even though there's absolutely nothing we could have done with the cancer.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I just lost my sweet Olive six weeks ago. She was around 11, but I had her for 9 and a half of it. I miss her dearly every single day. She liked to be held like a baby and sleep in my arms. She was just the sweetest cat I ever knew.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I empathize completely, take good care of yourself and let the memories come flooding back. Tears and yet, joy at having that amazing bond! Love never dies. πΎπ
So sorry to hear that, Lucy. Phatcat was such a gem. πΎβ€οΈπΎ We lost our Ollie in August and I still look for him in all his special places. Sending you and your family much love.
Iβm so sorry, Lucy. I always enjoyed seeing Phatcat in your posts. How wonderful that he had all the love you gave him to keep with him while he goes on ahead in the journey.
There's no pain like losing a furbaby. My ginger, 10 this yr - every day is precious. He eats organic, takes vitamins, reverse osmis water and limited healthy treats I make. I want him as healthy as long as I can. He's my last cat in a long, crowded, diverse list of critters of nearly 60 years.
So sorry, it is always hard to lose a good friend. The trouble is that when we bring a fur child into our home, we will outlive them. When they leave us to go over the rainbow bridge, they still remain in our hearts forever.
What an honor it was to know you virtually Phatcat! May your trip on the rainbow bridge be filled with color and I know you will make friends on the other side! Peace and love on your journey. β€οΈ
this sad tale deeply resonates w/me bc we have a 16 YO female who has seen her last autumn. the vet will make a house call in a few days & Mamas will become a lingering presence in our hearts til the end of our days. haven't we been lucky to have known them, loved them and been loved in return? <3
I'm so sorry for your loss, Lucy. It's been over 2 years since my Socks left me. Can't even tell you how much I cried, for weeks. I've even moved since, yet there are still days I half expect to find her on my pillow when I wake up.
Lost our beloved Teenie Monkee last month. I keep forgetting and go to cuddle with her at her favorite spot on my bed in the sun. She was my bestest girl.

We have a 12 year old cat who may not survive next week.

RIP #Phatcat
He was a lovely kitty.
My orange is the same age, so it hits close to home.
Iβm very sorry for your loss, Lucy.
π Your Phatcat was adorable.
