Lost a pet today
My cat Spooky. He was 10 and a half years old. Got him and his brother when they were tiny kittens.
Several months later my mom passed away, dad got remarried about 6 months later and moved out, brother moved out. My cats were the thing that gave me comfort for a year or so after losing my mom. Today I got up from a nap and saw him hunched over the couch. I knew it wasnt good. I'm a mess, his sibling appears depressed. I know pets are not people but it feels like I've lost a family member and part of that comfort I had during what felt like impossible difficult times is now gone. |

Sorry Billay. Time heals all wounds. Losing a pet is awful. Will you get a new one?
No they’re not. Has a pet ever bought you a gift, made you a meal, picked you up at the airport, or healed you when you’re sick, or given you a BJ? (You don’t have to answer the last question, folks) |

Sorry for your loss. I’m not a cat person myself, but losing a pet is hard. They definitely become a big part of our lives.

I am always sorry to see these threads. Pets can become very important to us and it sucks that they only live for such a relatively short time and it really does hurt when it is time for them to go.
Share your grief with the remaining cat. It will probably be good for both of you right now. Then, in a few weeks or months consider getting a new cat. |

Worst day of owning a pet. It sucks but take some comfort in knowing you gave him a great life.

Lost our cat last month, only 7.5 years old. She was ****ing awesome and anyone who says cats suck hasn't had a fun one. My 1 year old son was just starting to take to her and just learned her name. It was pretty devastating as it all happened within 24 hours.
Sorry Billay. I was a mess the first few days but it does get easier. |

Sorry to hear, TM. It's a hard situation to deal with.
I had two cats for a long time, and when the first one passed away, the surviving cat was really stressed out for a long time. Be sure to give him/her extra attention.
