RIP Munchkin

My heartfelt condolences on your loss.

I am sorry for your loss. My cats are like family.

I know how you feel and I'm sorry for your loss itgirl.

I'm very much so a cat person (can't handle loud hyper animals) and EVERY cat I have ever owned has been a cuddle cat all the way til adulthood. It's always hard letting them go, especially when they're just a kitten.

I myself have 2 cats and obviously the new dog. And it was just a year past last november that we had to put our golden down. She was a good dog, but was suffering from intestinal cancer. I know she was better off but I felt like such a failure as her protector, such an asshole for having to have her put down. We stayed with her till the end that way she didn't die alone. She would have done the same for us. I still miss her when I think about her. Her collar is still in the garage on the cabinets in honor of her.

I know the pain that is caused by having to go thru that. I'm sorry you have to endure that. It will get better. I suggest you get a picture of her in a frame and put it out for display. One of her playing or just being cute. You may have to wait a while but then it will remind you of all the catnip heaven that she is in now.

thanks for all the support, gang. i really appreciate it. i wasn't in the room when they put her to sleep. now i kinda wish i woulda been. i hate the thought of her dying alone in that sterile environment. i just hope she knows how much she was loved in her short stay with us.
