I remind myself she had a good few years after I rescued her. I do miss her, the silly girl. Thanks for your kind words.

Our cat died suddenly in September. I felt so sad and aching inside. I was surprised how sad I felt. So I understand x
• in reply toAgoodenough
I'm sorry for your loss, too. They can be pretty special.
• in reply toAgoodenough
That's it with pets they become part of the family and you get attached no matter what creature it is.

you are so right!
I'm sorry to hear about the loss of Jack.
Her markings were similar to baby's mate Percys who is a brown and white tabby and very spoilt!
• in reply to
They should be spoilt, don't you think? 
Thanks so much.

A friend at my previous job was signed off for 2 weeks on the sick after her dog died.
I’m so sorry to hear about Jack. She looked beautiful. If you want to talk, we’ll be willing to talk and listen anytime. I know how hard it is to loose a family member/pet. I had two other cats before my cat, Bunny was adopted.
• in reply toActivity2004
You are so very kind. Give your kitty Bunny some extra pets for me. I sure appreciate the kind thoughts and the offer.

You're welcome! Get some rest.
So sorry to hear of your loss. I am sending a virtual hug. 🌸
• in reply toMarnie22
Virtual hug most gratefully accepted. Purrr
Its so sad when you lose a pet, As a big animal lover I feel for you. You obviously loved her so you will be left with very fond memories as you were the means of her having a happy, loving home. Take care and remember the good times young as together.

Will do!
Thank you. She was much loved. I made a $40 donation to the vet to be used by someone with less resources than I as a memorium for her.

Oh Wallowa, I feel so sad for you. I know you would have loved her so deeply. What a treasure she looks and how kind of you to make her life count and give her your love. You have done your very best for her. So sorry. 💐
• in reply tobobbybobb
thank you. your kind words matter a lot.
Aww, I'm sorry to hear that Wallowa, that's really sad. They quickly become a part of our lives and then they're gone leaving us the richer for knowing them. xx
• in reply tospringcross
you are exactly right!
I'm sorry for the loss of your cat, Jack. That was the name of our first Jack Russell. Our animals have a very big impact on our lives . Sending hugs 🤗
• in reply toBuddy34
Thank you so much. These kind words really matter.
Very sorry for your loss. It it devastating when we lose our babies.
• in reply toJacksc06
It's always hard to take losing a pet no matter what creature it was!
How's your kitty getting on? Baby is fine and is still being spoilt getting fish today for her weekly treat.
• in reply toJacksc06
It is tough, and I appreciate the kind words.
Hi Wallowa. I'm so sad for you. It's very hard to lose a beloved pet. You are right to remember what a good life she had with you and will have slipped away knowing she was well loved and cared for. You have her lovely 'pawtrait' to remember her by. 🙏🌈
• in reply to
Thank you for your kind words, they matter. She was a loved cat.
What a magnificent cat that is.
Sorry for your loss. Worst thing about having a pet since we live longer than they do.
We acquired a parrot several years ago. He will probably outlive us. Good thing the kids like him.
What a kind way to honour your pretty Jack, You gave her love and now you have handed that love on to someone else who may need a helping hand.II know the pain of your loss is still raw but in time that will ease.
Memories will last forever.
Ellie
What a cutie.It is so sad when they pass.Thank goodness she was able to be loved and cared for xx
Such a beautiful cat! So sorry for your loss! We have two cats, and a dog! They are all a part of the family! Over the years we’ve lost several cats and a dog, and it’s never easy!
What a beautiful cat-we've had 3 cats and all of them had cancer! So we know how you must be feeling -it is a real loss (like losing a family member)! Total sympathies-thoughts are with you!
Sincerely-Ratton!
So sorry for your loss!
So sorry for the loss of your furbaby 🐱😿💔
I’m so sorry, it’s tough when we have to say goodbye to our fur babies 😢 but you gave a rescue kitty love, comfort and a better life for the last years of her life and that’s special. Thinking of you xx

Thanks so much.
People don't know how upsetting it is when a pet dies
• in reply tosandravale
On the bright side, I think the people here are some of the kindest I've met on the topic. THANK you.

• in reply to
Yes, I saw the message, that was so NICE! I've been moved by all the support here and inspired to reach out to others. What a nice community.
All pets or should are special to there owners and I know the heartbreak of loosing one.
I have always had a Boxer dog over the last 40 years,4 in total but nothing for the last 5 years and it is hard.You have my sympathy ,until you loose a pet than you not a clue.
One of my Boxers lived with a cat and they just got on great,she used to pinch his food and sleep on his back!
• in reply toHamishBoxer
I bet that was adorable - cat and boxer buddies! Thank you!
I’m so sorry, it’s the worst part of being an animal lover. But what a happy, loved life you gave to a rescue cat.
• in reply to
Thank you so much. I think she was happy.
I hope you’re feeling a bit better today x
• in reply toAgoodenough
I am. I was surprised at how sad I was. The people here have been very kind, I had no idea. Thank you again.
So sorry. It is heart breaking when a pet dies. You gave her a good home and she had a happy life with you. I hope you feel better soon. x
• in reply toSheila_G
Thank you so very much.
My heart goes out to you. I lost my companion in October; a rescue also, Tilly, a Little Jack Russell. I miss everything about her, her puppy paws, her little tail which expressed her mood, her expressive eyes and often fun, strong gentle energies, her spirit and intuitive beauty. And she let my beautiful moody Calico banana-split, Bianca groom her I videoed it once, on a Saturday night, "Bath Time" and posted in on the Facebook. It was "normal" to see love they had for each other - almost as if they were self-aware and yet enjoyed their differences, my two girls. Bianca still lives (now, age 12, with a friend who totally loves her. I cannot have any pets now anyway, regretfully, due to my immune system being shot with Myasthenia gravis, my M S, and of course the cancer, advancing Gleeson 9. ). I miss them both like crazy. You are in my prayers and good wishes. Smile, and know you helped her and changed her life, giving the goodness. Best, respectfully….r-
• in reply tosurvivor75
And you are in my thoughts and prayers, with thanks for your kind words.
It’s awful when the day comes, you have all my sympathy. You lose your friend and companion , must admit I still howl every now and again when I get really lonely but try to remember what a great life jack had if you can. Love really does hurt sometimes though
• in reply toSpring1
Thank you. You are so right.
Sorry to hear this, I’ve just gone through this with my old dog..heartbreaking to lose a pet..
Thoughts are with you.
• in reply toJoliv61
And mine with you. I'm so sorry for your loss. The longer we have them, the more we've given them, and also that they've given us. Thank you.
I am so sorry, I’m sure she had lots of love and a wonderful time with you. ❤️

• in reply to
That is my hope at some point. You're so right. And thank you.
So sorry for your loss.
It's a big hole to fill...
These little folk, are simply put, as 'people with paws'.
I lost our own beautiful Poppy, also a rescue cat and it's very difficult, especially I can imagine moreso during these difficult times.
We found that for being a rescue cat she was even more special, more sensitive, even more Intuitive...
Thinking of you at this difficult time.
Much love
Poppy the 🐈
• in reply toPoppy_the_cat
Thank you so very much. It sounds like you and Poppy were very bonded.
Poppy_the_cat• in reply to
Very, she just knew me inside out. I definitely think we had telepathy... loved her very, very much.
My husband doesnt approve of pets so I cant have any [it takes two] .. it's better to have loved and lost than never to love at all and I think that's the same with pets. xx
• in reply toPatsyIpswich
Thank you so much.
So sorry for your lost ,it's so sad to lose a pet.
Please take care.

I'ts sad for anyone to lose a pet especially when they are part of the family. Heartbreaking

• in reply toWhippetygirl
Thank you so much. Is that a kingfisher in your profile picture?
I’m very sorry to hear that news, it’s always a day we fear. She looks a lovely girl, I hope you had a good many years together, with lots of funny moments you shared and can look back on with love.
Our pets fill out the empty holes in our lives, they give us a reason to get up each day when sometimes it’s the last thing we want to do, We are very lucky when we experience that deep bond. Take care. Dee x
• in reply toTudee
Thanks so much, Dee.
So sorry for your loss. She was a contented pretty girl.
• in reply toGillyflower18
Thank you so much.
Sorry to hear of you're loss. I will pray for you.
• in reply toKitten58
Thanks, you're kind.
Am so sorry to hear that. She was a beauty. Yes, you will miss her but she had a great life with you. Tc x
• in reply toMrsmeldrew
Thank you so much. She was rescued and I did my best to keep her well and happy.
Beautiful cat. My daughter rescued cat almost identical and she has the nicest personality.
She looks content in the photo and she had a good life with you, which might help a little with loosing her. We do miss our pets when they go for sure, though.
We lost our dog and our cat within 4 months of each other, and it was really tough especially on our kids. This was years ago and I still miss their company.

• in reply tostudebaker
I get it. I do think that if we have done our best by them, that's what counts. Thank you.
Sorry to hear, I’m sure she had a lovely life with you, she looked very happy there. Take care
• in reply toCreativecraft
Thank you!
I’m so sorry about the loss of your beautiful cat. I have two cats too and I’m so attached to them, so I feel your sadness.
Sending love and a big hug. Xxxxx
• in reply toFrenchhouse3
thank you so much. pet your cats for me
Frenchhouse3• in reply to
Ah, I will.
When my previous cat died, I was so upset, I vowed never to get another one, but then both my sons brought home cats that needed re-homing and I’m so glad now.
When you feel ready, maybe give a lovely home to another rescue?
Lots of love xxxxx
• in reply toFrenchhouse3
I think I will. I love having cats, and all the ones I've had have deliberately been the older ones that might be less adoptable than kittens. Though I like them too!
So sorry to hear this😥 we just gave a kitten away to a young lady who wanted one for her mother who has medical issues, blessing because we didn't have to take it to the shelter! Hopefully one day you'll get another companion 🐈
• in reply toSpanaway
Thank you.
I am so very sorry for your loss. We had a little black cat with brilliant green eyes 16 years old we had to have put to sleep because of her age, we still hurt. Just recently we had to have our beautiful yellow female lab put to sleep because of lung cancer, we morn her always.
• in reply towinnabago
I am so very sorry for your losses, and glad you had their love. Glad I had Jack's, too.
I feel for you. I know how I felt when we lost our pussy. I wept. x
You don't say when you lost your cat but my sympathy for the loss. They sure matter, don't they? Thank you.
So sorry about ur 😺. Ironically, I went through pictures today. Found picture's of my deceased kitties and a pink heart and bell for my seal point Himalayan kitty, Mokie aka Mocha. She was the sweetest spirit. I had a good cry remembering all of them. I had all as kittens. My son as a little guy holding one. He loved kitties as much as I did. Hope u r ok.
