Author Topic: My Cat Just Died  (Read 4401 times)

She had a stroke some time yesterday. For some reason my parents didn't take her to the vet today.

She was progressively getting weaker. First she couldn't jump, then she had couldn't walk far, then her back legs were barely usable.
We all knew it was going to happen, but it seems so unreal now that it happened. She's 15, we've had her since I was 2, and she grew up with me. I grew up with her, it's really hard to let go of her.

We put her in a box with blankets all day long, because she couldn't move to her litter box and we wanted her near us. I was sitting there petting her when she passed away.


This photo was taken after her stroke, when she crawled to my parent's bathroom to lay on a towel.

the name tickles makes it so much sadder

Aww :( It's probably so sad to lose a pet that you've known for as long as you can remember. I've not had to go through that yet.

the name tickles makes it so much sadder
Wow.
It does make it +1000000000 times sadder.

I gave her that name, I kept saying tickles because her fur tickled me when she rubbed against me.


My dog had a stroke, it was pretty scary.


I'm so loving sorry but I laughed at this bit:

I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my cat over the summer and almost lost my dog a few minutes ago. He was choking and I had to get it out.


Best way to fill the void is to go over to your local shelter and adopt a new cat. There will always be a hole in your soul where Tickles was but at least you've always got room for more.


i lost my cat over the summer due to a household accident.
he wasnt even 2 years old yet, and was the sweetest thing, and loved sleeping on my arm.
