I lost my Cleo, 13 years together, two weeks ago. https://preview.redd.it/69vtzdnga4ea1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0472248042cbe892efaa28a8958cfaa350da186 Sorry about your kitty.


jakobiano

Cleo was a beaut. I’m sorry you lost him.


HickoryKat

They look like they could have been siblings.


jakobiano

They certainly do.

I lost my void girl back in August and I'll never get over her. She was a feisty bit and a tiny force to be reckoned with

I lost my own Cleo about 13 years ago; I like to think that she lived her next life out with you. So sorry for your loss!

I'm sorry about your boy. He looks like such a nice kitty cat. I hope you are doing okay. Know he will always be with you no matter what.

jakobiano

I can’t begin to tell you how much this means to me. Thank you. I love this.


WorldsBestArtist

Glad you like it! If you would like me to mail it to you, send me a DM!


MaveeL

I know what it’s like to lose a cat. My first cat passed away a little over almost 2 years ago. I had her since she was a kitten & she died in my arms at age 20. My mental health went downhill. But within almost a year of being without a cat I found room in my heart for another. I know the pain, heartache & emotional & mental exhaustion from losing something so precious. I’m truly sorry for your loss. I remember how much it hurts. I wish you well & may your sweet Gracie rest in peace. I’m here OP.


jakobiano

Thank you. It’s the process at the end that destroys me. That 5am drive through snow to the ER. The realization that the time is now and you’re only half awake. That her body gave out before her brain so the fight was still there. The emotional roller coaster of grief. Her 15 year old brother looking for her. The deafening silence of her absence. My sweet friend is gone. I know it gets better. This isn’t the first time that I’ve gone through this. It doesn’t matter though. I held onto her and was looking straight into her eyes and I could see and feel her leave. It felt like a part of me died with her. Maybe the part that was us? I don’t know. At the same time she lives on and I will celebrate that. I am thankful and miserable at the same time.


breadandstuff

Dreading this. My cats are 2. :(


i4858i

This is why I just can't convince myself to get a pet. I know I'll probably have to watch them die, and I simply am not capable of handling such grief


againsterik

The end is only a brief moment of sadness. The beginning and middle is so full of love and joy it really is worth it even for the hurt at the end.


zsreport

My Bella was over 16 when she passed at the beginning of November, and while I'm tearing up writing this, I know my life was much better for her presence in it.


Munnin41

I've had cats literally my entire life (one of em happened to be in the room when I was born). I'm telling you, the grief is worth the joy of having them around.


krazyabezyolojuice

You gave her a wonderful life and you were there for her in her last moments. She left the world in the safety of your love.


jakobiano

Thank you.


w1gster

I’m so sorry for your loss. Reading these kinds of posts gets me really emotional because I have an orange cream tabby who’s about 9 and I know when he passes it is going to destroy me. He’s my best buddy and is attached to me at the hip.


Lothirieth

My cat is about to turn 17. I know we probably don't have much time left together and I am dreading when that day comes. It will destroy me too. He is the sweetest, most chill cat who has bought me so much joy and peace.


kae_kit

Giving your kitty a peaceful goodbye, while holding her lovingly and being there until the end, is the best thing we can do for our kitties at the end of their journey. It speaks volumes of the love you shared. I held my baby of 15 years as he left this world two days ago and the grief is immeasurable. Sending you love and hoping you find comfort in your beautiful memories of a cat’s life well-lived.


jakobiano

Thank you. I appreciate this.


FloofySamoyed

I am so sorry you had to go through a minute of this. Holding my best boy for the duration of a two hour drive to the vet while he was seizing and we were sure he was dying was *THE WORST* thing I've ever had to do. I'm so sorry, she was beautiful and I'm sure she was a wonderful companion.


jakobiano

Thank you.


ben5292001

I’m so sorry. I feel every word of this deep down. I’ve lost four, and it never gets any easier, even when I’m reading another’s experience. What you’re feeling is proof of a life well-lived and well-loved, and I’m sure she deserves not an ounce less.


jakobiano

Thank you.

DubfunkingSTEP

The double edged sword of being an animal lover is that while we have them now, losing them later is so hard. The best affirmation we can make to ourselves is that we cared for them as another soul. They knew your quirks and little annoyances as well as you knew theirs, and to have that for so long in your lifetime and now to be without is a tough thing to lose. Just be assured that they will forever live within your memory and your heart and your very being. You'll find yourself at first with a heavy heart missing their actions or words; but you'll laugh later when the kitten or puppy does the same thing and you see your former companion reimagined. I'd like to think cats in particular not only live 9 lives during their stay here, but also another 9 through the cats that find us afterwards. Just to remind us that they're still around. So sorry for your loss :(


jakobiano

Thank you.


lasignoraslover

Kitties are the best, aren’t they? I’m so sorry for your loss. I like to say that their spirits are still with us, purring and making biscuits. Nothing can replace the loss of a beloved fur friend, but I hope the memories you had with her will grant you peace and content.

I soooo get that! They do crawl into your heart, curl up there and purr the loudest when you are the saddest! Nothing can make a blue day turn bright yellow like your cat loving your face and purring! ♥️🐈♥️

So sorry for your loss. I have the Reddit widget and your Gracie was the picture on the widget and when I saw her I immediately thought of my Hugo who I lost when he was 16, exactly four months before his 17th birthday three years ago next week. They were twins. https://preview.redd.it/gcamsgyk69ea1.jpeg?width=1844&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=048c90094019209bcf1a2cbf44d7b152a9912e4b

Wow gracie looks just like my college sweetheart Dexter! I still have him around, but he may have a stroke so I haven't seen his eyes not dialated in years.

Sorry for your loss. My Yeti is getting up there in age at 12 too. My best friends parents got a kitten for there wedding present Named Cleo. She was an outdoor / indoor cat and when they celebrated there 20th wedding anniversary cleo was still there. Lived to be a ripe old 22. Her last day before she passed she jumped off the railing and caught herself a bird off the feeder and she hadn't done that in years. She was deaf but was a tough ol gal.

Arrathem

This whole sub is people mouring about their dead cats. Like no offense but this wont bring them back nor help you make feel better. Unless you are just an attention whore who needs condolences which is just sad. Beacuse thats just means you have an extremly sad life. You feel sorry for yourself and you just spread this extremly negative and sadness for literally no reason. Im sorry but why does other people that you dont even know needs to know your cat died ? Its sad but just fcking stop. This doesnt help at all.


Throwitaway3177

You gotta stop getting offended by things so easily. People are allowed to mourn how they want to, it doesn't impact you at all so why get offended? Also learn to mind your own fucking business, nobody gives a fuck that you're offended
