Mourning Said goodbye to my familiar. 21 years of partnership.
I am lost for words. I wanted to tell him, I loved him so much. 21 years of birthdays, Christmas, sad events, happy ones. He was there for it all. I feel like I’ve lost a piece of myself, I can’t even believe it.
He had a horrible infection in his eye, was urinating blood and could barely walk. We had to put him to sleep, but it was so traumatizing. I can’t stop replaying it.
I love you my boy. I love you so much. I hope I see you again one day, I hope you’re in kitty heaven. Thank you so much for everything.

I got a cat when I was about age 2-3 and she ran away (presumably to die alone) around when I was 18-19. Definitely played a major role in my childhood and my heart. I still think about her a decade later.
