ratsncats   10 #3 Posted October 14, 2007 It's so awful when you have to say goodbye to a loved animal family member. And its not helped by people who act like you could never be upset by losing a 'pet'. As difficult as it is try and remember how fantastic the time was you spent together.

MARY POPPINS Â Â 10 #4 Posted October 14, 2007 That was a good age, but it still hurts when you lose a little one They are all more than just! and they all have a special place in our hearts that is so very hard to fill, but take care,and think of the happy times you shared love to you and your other little ones they will be missing their friend so give them lots of cuddles, and they will help you to feel better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
medusa   16 #5 Posted October 14, 2007 I really feel for you pauline- my mummy's boy is 14 years old and white too. When we survive a furry soul mate it can be very hard to let them go.  The one thing that you can say is that he had a lovely long life with you and you did your utmost to stop him from suffering as he would have done.  I always said that I never wanted to look back on my animals' lives and say 'they had 14 great years and how ever many crap ones'. We have the power to prevent them from having the crap ones and it is the ultimate act of love for them to let them go when they're ready, rather than holding on until you're ready to let them go.  Ooooh- soppy me getting all emotional. They have this power over our hearts (and our tear ducts). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
katkin   10 #6 Posted October 14, 2007 You gave him a wonderful life and he gave you unconditional love. It's hard to say goodbye, I know, but you will always have the memories and I'm sure you'll continue to catch a glimpse of him out of the corner of your eye for some time to come. RIP little one.

Raeven   10 #7 Posted October 15, 2007 Pauline, I am so sorry to hear you lost your lovely boy. Having a pet pts is such a hard decision to make, but knowing you have acted in your boy's best interests is something that gives a little comfort.  Losing a beloved pet is something we never get hardened to - they are all individual and unique, and very very special. All of us that love our pets know how you are feeling - you're not on your own.  Sending a hug XXX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Moonbird   10 #8 Posted October 15, 2007 Sorry to hear about your cat, I remember how hurt and sad I was when I lost my 15 year old almost 2 years ago now, in time you will be able to smile again when you think of him and all of his funny little ways, but for now be kind to yourself.
