Mourning Final Update on Tune: my hospitalized cat

I am sitting here writing this as i sit next to my sweet baby however he is no longer with us, around two hours ago ago i received a phone call that he stopped breathing, i came here, and his heart stopped, he didnt get to see me because when i arrived he was no longer conscious but i am certain he was thinking of me while he was drifting away. my first cat, my first little boy. once so close now so far. hope we meet again Tune, in another life. my sweet sweet boy 💜

I am crying-your saga reminded me so much of what I recently went through with my boo, who also didn’t make it after I too did everything I could-financially, physically, everything. Took me a while to get over that one-whew, it hurt. Didn’t know I could be so affected by the death of a pet but that one really hurt because of the suddenness and un-timeliness of it all and having to witness a demise in real time I was ultimately completely powerless over. Give yourself a few days to really grieve -you need it. Rest knowing you did everything you could. Sometimes kittens just die. Peace be with you-tune is in a place without pain now.
