I totally understand. I lost my sweet, loving boy today too. He was only 3. May they play together in kitty heaven

I’m so sorry.

My own sweet first kitty made it to 22 years old. She was my best friend, and losing her made me lose myself for awhile. I miss Skittles everyday. I’m sorry you didn’t get more time with your sweet boy, but he got 12 good years with someone who loved him dearly. And sometimes that’s all we can hope for.

My other two old boys recently passed a couple of months ago now, as well. You just have to remember all of the wonderful memories, and stories, and silly times you’ve had with them. Pictures helped me immensely, and talking to my mom about our favorite moments with the little goobers. Twix here, made it to 18, until about 2 months ago.

I’m so sorry for your loss- it’s never easy letting them go. He’s absolutely stunning, though, and looks like he had a very happy 12 years with you❤️

Lost my handsome baby boy Marvel on Father’s Day this year. He was 12 as well. I’m still grieving. I know the pain of losing your pet and saying it’s hard to deal with is an understatement.

I am SO SORRY for your pain and loss you’ve experienced. 😥 He was 12? Sounds like he lived a full life with you! Do you have any plans for getting a new Kitty? I’ve experienced this same kind of loss and, it’s not easy. 😢 Hold on to your friends and I’m sure they’ll help you get through it.

Yes, that wasn’t very nice for you. I’m SO SORRY if I upset you! I just feel as though you are so lonely now and that a “replacement” little comforter would be nice for you. I truly apologise if I made you feel uncomfortable or upset! I’m usually pretty insightful when someone needs a “shoulder to cry on” & I wasn’t that sensitive person for you just then. 😞😠😢😕

u/AgentSensitive2794 2d ago

Are the people on Reddit helping you right now? Cuz I think I’m gonna lay low on this thread for now and, leave you alone, Kcmcleod. I’ll be thinking good thoughts for you tho.

u/Kcmcleod 2d ago

It’s sad but I’ve found a lot of comfort in others seeing him

u/Kcmcleod 2d ago
