Default MyPrecious Is Gone

Hey guys, a horrible thing happend to me Last night, I my cat, momma, of eleven years, became very ill, and today I had to have her put to sleep. Needless to say I am rather sad at the moment and just a bit put out with God.

I know things happen and everything dies sooner or later, but this just really bits. I have been expecting it for sometime, but I honest to God didn't expect it so soon.

I just had to post something to help get this hurt off of my chest. Somehowe talking about it does help, a bit.

Thanks for reading, now you should go love on your pets, you never know when it will be the Last time.

I had her for so long and I never gave her a name. I am really trying not to cry right now, but I am loosing the battle steadly. God I miss her.

She was a lovely animal....I'm sorry for your loss I know how it feels to lose a pet.

My dog of 14 (had it since I was 3) years died Last year and I was seriously depressed for a while and it was hard to beleive he wasn't going to be there anymore .

I know exactly how it feels Atrocities. I lost my cat Sammy a few years ago (had him for at least 11 years) I was only 15ish at the time. Really sorry to hear this, Cats are great pets and friends. Don't worry about crying, Let it out and remember all the times you had with her, it'll make you feel less pent up.

If it makes you feel better in anyway as I'm typing this my kitten just relieved itself in the litter tray a few metres away in the kitchen and it STINKS to high heaven

I am doing better now guys. Thank you. The pain is passing, but the grief will be with me for a long long time. But talking about it does help.

Beautiful cat. And NICE picture.

We tend to keep 3 cats in rotation (always having a young one helps keep the old ones from getting to inactive). At the moment the one at the top is a majorly monstrous throw rug so I wouldnt be surprised if she will go soon. We also keep a big dog in the back yard, and an "ankle assassin" dog in the house. We love pets.

But in California its getting almost impossible to find replacements for free. Took us 8 months to find a free kitten and almost a year to find a dog. We are still looking for a small inside one. Looks like we are going to have to cough up a couple of hundred to get one.

8 months to find a free kitten?!?!?!?!?!?!

I could probably pick up the paper right now or look in our local advertiser and find you a ton of free kittens. Looks like Ohio needs to export a few kittens to California. Heaven knows i'm always having people ask us to take another kitten but we feel two in the house is plenty.

Sorry about your loss Atrocities. A few years ago or so we had to put down the cat we had basically since Richard and I got married, it was the hardest decision we've ever had to make in our lives. My prayers are with you.

Not where I live. Maybe just your small part of California.

Atrocities, you have my condolences.
