Pets

Laura, I am very sorry for your loss and know nothing I can say will make it better, the only comfort you have is that you made the right decision because of your love, you gave her a good life, she knew she was loved. That is more than a lot of animals or even humans have in their life, her soul is at rest now.

 

So sorry Laura. That is just the worst. We have a cat going on 14 I look all the time to make sure
she's still breathing like you do when you have a new baby. Your daughter was very brave and strong to be able to help.
Getting a new pet will surely ease the pain.
Again my heart goes out to you, cats are a source of love for sure.

 

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I can understand what you went through,Laura. I hope there is a new friend in your future. And yes, cats do show love and affection.

 

you have my most sincere sympathy Laura we have a cat (only 8 year old) but she is a family member she sleeps on the bed with me every night and we don't know how we would cope in the same situation(no smiley not appropriate)

 

i managed to compress the photo's of our puss-cat eventually

 

So sorry for your loss Laura, I know exactly how you feel. Several years ago I had to put my 17 yr old dog to sleep. Not an easy decision by any means, but was the best for her.
And I think any pet you give love to will give it back X 3

 

Giving a beloved pet a gentle end is the hard part of the life bargin you make with your critters. It's not often you can buy/aquire unconditional love, but pets come as close as you can get.

I mourn your loss with you.

 

A very pretty kitty, great eyes.

 

Pets are wonderful companions, they love us unconditionally and are always there when we need a little pick me up. I know that when our dogs go it will not be easy. They do become part of the family and we mourn them as we would a human family member. My sincerest condolences and best wishes for the new addition to come.

Amen to that. I remember years ago I received a little kitten as a pick-me-up gift from my mother. I loved little Misty to tears, but she was very sick and had fleas, so my mother secretly had her put to sleep. A couple of years ago I learned the truth, and I am still grateful for it. Misty meant a great deal to me, more than any other pet I've ever had, and to learn what happened when I was better able to take it is a real comfort to me. I've never forgotten her or my mother's kindness in those days, and I can relate to the kind of pain a pet's loss can bring. But we need never lose the memories.

 

She's beautiful, Laura.
