I'm so sorry for you.
Give yourself a while to grieve, and maybe think about getting another cat to care for - that is the only thing that was able to make me think less about the loss of a beloved companion and keep me in the present where there is someone who needs your attention and affection.
Her ears are so big! 🖤🤍
If you're crying for her, you won't be alone
Grieve. Feel it. That’s love. It hurts and it’s heavy, but that’s just the cost of them moving from a physical reality to one of memory and emotion. Don’t shut it out - mitigate it if you have to, bit by bit. But grief, to me, has never been about those you love leaving, that’s just them knocking at your heart’s door, asking to be let in.
Oh, I am so sorry. Sending hugs
For those who wish to know.
Tap for spoiler
The Vet initially thought she had been hit by a car. She was covered in bruises and coughing up blood. After finding out she was an inside cat they deduced that she probably chewed on a wire and was electrocuted.
Oh I am so sorry for both of you. It must've been terrible to find her so terribly injured, and to make the desperate run to the vet, and then she couldn't be saved. At least they could make her passing less painful. Some cats are just so determined to do dangerous things, especially chewing/eating things they shouldn't, that there's no stopping them. Sounds like she had a fierce independent spirit in her little body. Now it's gone, but you'll see flashes of it out in the world, and feel its warmth deep in your heart. Take your time to recover. But also know that if another cat comes into the empty place in your life, her claim on you will be undiminished.
Oh my gosh I’m so so so sorry. :( Sue looked like such a fun and loving kitty
I’m so sorry, that’s heartbreaking. Cats are experts at getting into and doing things they shouldn’t, even when you take steps to keep them safe. Remember that she spent her time with you loved.
I'm very sorry. Shit like this happens and there's often nothing you can do.
I'm very sorry. :(
I'm so sorry. That's awful.
