I just lost my cat “Cinder” after 14 years. I watched her being born until I felt her heart beat for the last time she died while I was holding her.I cried for 2 days I never thought I liked cat until till she was born. I know what you’re going through you stay blessed 🙏🏿

I’m so sorry for your loss. I understand your pain cause even I went through that. Seeing my little fluffy kitty grow up to her taking the last breath was heartbreaking. Still can’t take that picture out of my mind. But I’m sure both of them are at peace now.

u/JupiterSkyFalls Feb 23 '24

My baby passed in 2019. I saw her come out of her mama, too. But I got to be there for her last heartbeat as well as the first breath. I was brave and didn't start waling until after she passed. 🫶🏼💜🫂

You may have only had her in part of your life, but you were there for all of hers, both you and OP. Your voids will always love you for that. Stay strong, friends, we'll see our babies again another time.

It is just so hard to lose a friend. Both of you are in my prayers for your peace and consolation.

u/ieatassanloveiy Feb 23 '24

I was told it was a soft thing to love cats as a man. Fuck them people I love my babies especially my boy Gomez I watched him being birthed. His mother is still with us as well. I fear the days my cats will pass away because they both besides my kids have given me hope into being a better man every day. Especially when they show you love you didn’t think you deserved.

Spoil her ROTTEN. Give her all the things, all the loves, all the time. I know my baby was spoiled but if I'd known her last year would have been her last I would have done things differently.

u/Catbird1369 Feb 22 '24

I know how you feel. Mine wasn’t a cat it was my dog of 16 years me and the old lady went through a lot together I was the one who told her she could go. I thanked her for being there for me when I needed someone. My husband was in the Navy and she was with me for all the deployments. She was always there. She was the best friend and dog I ever had. She passed in November of 2020. I still miss the old girl. She will always be in my heart. It’s the same with you and your beloved cat. May time heal you. For now I send my condolences and thoughts to you

I lost my girl on Wednesday after 17 years, her brother (the void of the two, she was a multicoloured furball) passed almost 3 years ago at 14 and it doesn't get easier considering they were part of the family since they were a week old and I was still a kid, but this time I found solace in the fact that I felt like I had time with her, that I knew it was coming and that she wouldn't be suffering anymore... Miss them both so so much, but I'm happy they're together again, I know she missed him terribly 💞

I had to let my girl go on September 30th and her chair still has her photos on it and nobody dares sit on it.

Lots of love ❤️
