Sad run

Woke up early this morning and discovered the tiny kitten I was fostering had died during the night. So upset but decided the best thing was to go for a run in the cool of the early morning. Ran an extra 5 minutes for Poppy who having been taken from her mother too soon was at a disadvantage from the start. Run did me good and felt ready to attack the day.

So sorry to hear about little Poppy. :-( That's made me want to go and give my cat a big hug and lots of fussing, which she'll hate. Sad news. :-( Glad to hear your run managed to cheer you up a little though. :-)

There's something heart warming about animals. Sorry to hear you felt upset, and I hope the run helped :-)

That's what's so good about running. When you run from now on you'll probably always think about your beloved cat and it will make you smile. Maybe not in the coming weeks but not too far down the line

How sad. But well done for going for a run. It really does help with the shi**ty stuff, doesnt it? I love cats and still think of my two little monsters years after they died. Animals bring so much into our lives.

Oh how sad. I hand-reared my pusscats and it was touch and go for one of them but she pulled through. :(

oh how sad, poor little poppy. At least she had the comfort of your care in her too short life. Glad your run helped to channel the pain. x
