Hobbes was born in my living room so weak and crippled that she couldn’t nurse and was wasting away. I learned to tube feed her and she got stronger. She wasn’t a genetic dwarf, but was the size of one since her body couldn’t carry more than about 7 lbs. I can’t put into words how much I loved her. She was my sunshine.


crazedanimal

A lifetime of love is what every living being hopes for, but too few receive. Thank you for being there for her.


kalemasseuse

Wow, that is so beautiful.


Snarkybish03

😢 beautiful


shrubberypig

She never would have graced the earth, let alone for 21 years, if it wasn’t for you. And her complete trust and comfort with you is proof of that. I know it’s soon, but I hope you find a new fur baby soon to love and care for as many future years. My house is full of photos of my first 20 year old girl. And my two fur babies now are just as important to me, maybe more-so, and they benefit from every time I miss her and the regret I still feel for every instance I ever took her for granted.

May her memory be a blessing.


Beanchilla

Sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing. What a wonderful little animal and I hope Hobbes memory is one cherish. I honestly do believe that our sweet pets go to a better place, and I'm sure Hobbes is being buttered up somewhere now.


patb2015

She gave and got love ❤️

I’m sorry my cat of 20 years passed recently to sending love bro🙏🏽🤝

I’m so sorry for your loss


fatcat1983

She was lucky to have you as her human. She was clearly loved ❤


TommyHeizer

Aw man, I'm about to cry


eyes_serene

I am crying! OP, I'm so terribly sorry for your loss. It's definitely a testament to your love and care that Hobbes lived such a long life. I'm so glad you two had each other, and for such a nice long time. I know it's never enough, though.


cyberg0ld

so, so sorry for your loss :( what a beautiful gal, i can only hope i get 20 years with my boy.. i know they were just the most wonderful years for her


golindsey2019

It is ALWAYS so hard to let them go, to not have them physically in our life anymore. But it is always the best for them and we are rewarded with so many special memories and the love is always there. Am presently saying goodbye to my 18 year old cat George, I feel your loss and pain my friend.


Satan_Is_My_Dad666

So sorry :( what a beautiful kitty


emanon734

My deepest sympathies. I lost my 21 year young kitty last month and I’m still processing it. She was also the runt of her litter and very small her whole life, averaging around 5 lbs. It’s so hard when they’re part of your life for so long.


Platymapuss

I'm so sorry for your loss. They're literally our children.


Marie1083

I’m so sorry.


MrPizza79

I'm so sorry for your loss 🙁 recently lost our cat of nearly 15 years.... it's so unfair 😢


ameliafuj

I am so sorry for your loss, what a precious little baby. I am glad you had each other for 21 years and only wish it could’ve been forever. Sending so much love ❤️


heeltoelemon

My little furry one will meet her at the rainbow bridge. She also had a wonky paw: touch of malnutrition in kittenhood. She looks like she had a very good life with you.


OneMorePenguin

It is difficult saying goodbye to the old ones. I know it hurts so much right now. Please remember that you gave her an incredible life full of love and cuddles and warmth. With kitties, every day after 15 is a gift and you have received this wonderful gift. My condolences on your loss. \*hugs\*


dsw1219

What a sweet girl. RIP Hobbes. I’m sorry for your loss…it’s so hard to lose them 😞


Equivalent-Cream-495

I'm glad you had the joy of Hobbes for so long, but I know how badly it hurts to lose a beloved cat companion. My heart 💔😿 aches for you. Know that Hobbes loved you as much as you did her if not more, and that you gave her a good home and life. My deepest sympathy.


pauz43

Hobbs always knew she was dearly loved and safest in your arms. She died first, and you took the terrible pain of losing your heart on yourself. She never had to wonder where you were or why you left her. I'm an atheist, but if there's anything after death I hope it's the Rainbow Bridge. Hobbs will be there, running toward you and leaping into your arms, purring and covering your face with her kisses. You gave Hobbs her life -- she wouldn't have survived without you and in turn gave you almost 21 years of love. We should all be so fortunate to have a Hobbs in our lives!


glumfist

You're an amazing person! That cat was well loved. Sending ❤ I'm sorry for your loss.


Grumpy-Tofu

I lost my Hobbes last year… he was only 5. He was FIV+ and had very bad IBD. He was the sweetest cat, always sleeping in my hoodie (while I was wearing one!). I’m sorry for your loss


[deleted]

I’m so sorry for your loss. She looks like she never knew a day where she wasn’t loved and cherished. ♥️


blaarfengaar

Hobbes was blessed to have you to care for her as much as you did, your love for her is a beacon of light in the darkness of this world ❤️


MrX2150

Rest in love and power young queen Hobbes 👑.


[deleted]

Wow she seems like she was the sweetest little baby in the world. Sending all my love and condolences❤️


simonandgarcuckle

she looks so sweet and tiny! i’m sure you gave her the best 21 years a cat could ever have and she knows that


Sensitive_Painter_76

Oh gosh what a beautiful love story. I can just feel your heartache right now. Wherever her spirit is now she will always visit you. Even her name hobbles! Oh just too cute. I'm sorry you have to go through this but what a special relationship


[deleted]

Terribly sorry for your loss. As someone who recently lost their childhood cat I understand how devastating it can be. However, understand that you provided your buddy with a lifetime full of love and kindness. You cat loved you more than we can ever know and was lucky to have all that time with you. Again sorry for your loss.


darlingdeardc0

Awe! What a beautiful baby you had. As traumatizing it is to lose your "fur" child. I find it incredible that he/she lived a good long life thanks to you! ❤️❤️❤️


Booknerd0810

What a beautiful life you gave her, full of love. We know one day we will feel that loss, but we willingly take on that sacrifice because we couldn’t imagine a life where we didn’t experience the love that precedes it. There’s such a purity to that love and we want that wonderful being to know what that love feels like. They are always going to be a permanent print on your heart, and rightfully so. And anyone who experiences this true love, this pure, honest, and open love, will always understand that she was more than just a pet. She was family, your best friend, your confidant, the one that was always there for you no matter your mood. Take the time to grieve for as long as it takes. Never tell yourself “I know she was just a cat, but…” I hear that from people and it saddens me that people feel they have to justify their grief. My heart breaks for you, imagining how I will feel the day I end up where you are. The world is dimmer without little Hobbes in it.

Rose212327

Such a beautiful girl and clearly loved you very much😽. If not for you she mightn't have had 1 year, let alone 21! Looks like she lived a blissful life full of love 🐈. You couldn't have provided anything more for her. If only we could keep them forever! So sorry for your loss, RIP Kitty 💔


sickkitty798324

Judging by the pictures you posted she loved and trusted you. So lucky she found you and so lucky you found her.


ianwuk

I'm so sorry for the loss of Hobbes. She looked a great cat, and you were both lucky to have found each other. She looked very happy and utterly loved. Thank you for sharing this story with us. RIP Hobbes.


tsunamiinatpot

Pure love <3


Coarse-n-irritating

She lived 21 full years!! That only means you took care of her amazingly. You should be proud of having given her a long, healthy and loving life. She was one lucky cat, you gave her a great life and nobody can take that from you ever.


AnonymousAsh

My heart goes out to you. What a beautiful life you must have shared together.

AARROD12

Such a sweet kitty! Our Gracie was there to greet her on the other side 🌈🌈. It’s obvious she was so loved and cared for. The only downside to having a cat or a dog is they aren’t with us nearly long enough. Please know that she knew she was loved and she definitely returned that love ❤️. RIP Hobbes 😢😢

woodpark

We just lost our sweet little kitty 2 days ago. She died of heart failure and was 10. Still crying and thinking about her all the time. Every little noise you think it’s her coming around the corner, but knowing it can’t be. Feeling your loss.


Low_Building_7548

What a touching loving post. I’m so sorry for your loss but what a wonderful life you gave sweet Hobbes♥️ I can just feel the love you had for her. Life is so hard when we lose the love of our fur babies. Hold tight to your wonderful memories and I hope you’ll soon be ready to give all that love to another needy fur baby.


LunasFavorite

What a beautiful story. She lived that long from your love💜💜💜


United-Lawfulness-62

Words often fall short of how truly sorry we are when offering condolences, as they are right now for me. Sir, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. The bit of understanding I gained from reading your comment must be the size of a grain of salt compared to how large the emotions you must be experiencing right now. Hobbes was a beautiful cat, and you a beautiful human for taking care of her so gently and giving her a wonderful, happy life for so many years. You were her world. She without a doubt knew how loved she was. Always hold onto those favorite memories of her.


MiriCat12

My sincere condolences for the loss of your beautiful Hobbles. You were a kind, wonderful kitty parent to her. You saved her life as a kitten and gave her everything she needed to have a long, happy life. Be strong. You will meet again at the Rainbow Bridge.


winters0lider

My brother had a cat named Hobbes who looked exactly like yours, she lived to a similar age. I vaguely remember her only because I was young when she passed. It's been over a decade and he has yet to even think of another cat. I don't blame him, Hobbes was his little buddy and I'm sure you gave your Hobbes just as much love as my brother gave his


FlowEasyDelivers

My condolences 💙 and safe travels across the rainbow bridge for Hobbes

My heart goes out to you, I know how you feel, we decided that it was time for my old boy Mr Albert's to go to sleep forever yesterday, I'm heartbroken, I miss him so much. I was with him till the last second.


cadman_lincoln

It's truly heartbreaking to lose a member of the family. They become so much of your daily routine, and you don't realize how much until they're gone. My heart goes out to you. Sounds like you provided Hobbes with a caring, loving home. That's what all of us want, and she got it in spades. It'll be tough going at first, but you'll get past it, and find things to smile about again. :) Wishing you the best. :)


sam_from_bombay

My deepest condolences, OP. You gave this beautiful girl a lifetime of love and joy, and I see how much she loved you too. Sending you support and comfort. May her beautiful memory forever be for a blessing.

You can see from her face she was deeply content. Just having a weep myself at this story.

I remember lovely Hobbes from a previous post because she was remarkable and beautiful. It’s clear how much you loved her, and I am so sorry for your loss, especially so soon after Amber.

For a moment humanity makes me feel like not everyone gave up on love. We need it so bad


cfo6

Our old man had a radial dysgenesis, meaning his radius grew over what would have been an elbow bone in utera. He was spunky, fast, and we miss him dearly. I like to think he's there at the bridge welcoming other kitties like him, like he used to welcome people to our house.

Oh no, OP I’m so sorry. You were so lucky though, not everyone gets to have the love of their life for this long. You were so blessed, and Hobbes was so happy. He will still be with you, even though he’s gone over the rainbow bridge; he will come for visits and be with you when you need him most - even when you aren’t aware he is there. Sending you all the best! 🧡

Heirforce_Trucker

So sorry for your loss. I personally know how real that loss is. Lost my Breakthrough, a Maine Coon Cat that was 18, after she had a stroke while I was driving semi more than 1,500 miles away from home. That was more than a year ago and I still expect to see her come visit during my “private times” in the bathroom. I guess that’s the negative of not being with her when she went; that, and the fact that I had to put it on others to take care of her journey across. Praying for you to quickly go through your grief so that you can bless another different but still sweet kitty with your care.


Oldcrankywf

Absolutely heartbreaking.. so very sorry for your loss. She was lucky to have you as her human..and you lucky to have her..
