Members Rocky and Ginger's Mom Posted June 17, 2016 Members Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 I'm so very sorry for your loss, such a beautiful boy. I know the pain you are going through, it's been almost 3 weeks since my boy is gone and nothing can ever take his place. I do have a female cat, they were raised together but I had Rocky first since he was a baby and I do still cry everyday and have a lot of guilt. i don't think getting another cat is good as its too soon but maybe in the future it will be the right time. You have to take one day at a time as I'm still doing. I even talk to him even though it might sound crazy and call out his name. I have lost family and other pets but this death just about killed me inside.mornings are hard for me also. All I can say is I will pray for you and again I'm so sorry.

Members Dexter Posted June 17, 2016 Author Members Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Thank you so much for your reply... I know what you mean when you say it killed you on the inside.. I keep remembering my boy and I can not believe he is not here. I call out his name when sobbing and hope he would just show up and this was just a nightmare. Coping with his loss is almost impossible for me, he was a part of me.. I loved him very much, I raised him as a baby and he was only 6,. Way too young to die.. I have so much love to give and it's all turned in to pain.. Thank you again for your wonderful share.. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rocky and Ginger's Mom Posted June 18, 2016 Members Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 You are welcome,In a few hours it will be exactly 3 weeks. I try not to look at pics and video I have of that final night. I was asking my sister her opinion not realizing he was dying when I recorded him but when I put it all pics and video together I can now clearly see the difference over 6 hours and wonder why I was so blind not realizing he should be taking right away to vet. It will haunt me forever not knowing if maybe he could have been saved.i will continue to pray you find some peace. I know all too well how hard it is and again I'm sorry for your loss.

Members JMel324 Posted June 20, 2016 Members Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 It's amazing how we feel more grief with our pets than some humans who pass. People who don't own pets will never understand. We just found out yesterday that our dog Lucy has terminal cancer and not long to live. This was a complete curveball and can't believe it. Much like you, I'm already dreading coming home to an empty house, looking at her bowls, cage, toys, leash etc. The mere thought of all this has been making my wife and I cry hysterically. People say not to mourn the living but it's so hard when you know what her fate is, especially since she isn't acting her normal self and her quality of life is rapidly deteriorating. One thing I can tell you is not to rush out and try and replace him. He can never be replaced and will always hold a special place in your heart. You will know when the time is right to get another cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wyatt Posted June 29, 2016 Members Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 I am truly sorry to learn of your losses. My boy Bichon died suddenly one week ago. 9 years old. He was such a good boy, at work with me everyday and we traveled great distances together. He logged over 1000 hours flight time. I, too, am devastated and lost. The life and energy is missing from my home. From experience, I know, that with time things will improve. We must hold on. I read once "That life is a stubborn return from sorrow, again and again." And, "...that the test of the heart is troubled and it always comes with the years." So true. The longer we live, the more sorrow we encounter. God Bless all of you and God Bless our beautiful furry companions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juls Posted September 4, 2016 Members Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Hi Dexter.. First of all I am sorry about your beloved cat. I think It's been a while since you've posted here. I am going through the same situation. I hope we can talk and help each other cope up with this devastating incident. I am so hopeless and I can't move on. I just cry the whole day.

Members forhim7 Posted October 31, 2016 Members Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 You described my feelings very well. I hate coming home without seeing my Gracie's face through the window, then at the door. She died Wednesday and I still can't believe she is gone.
