I'm kind of bummed today. My very crabby but loyal companion of 15 years took her last walk yesterday. That's not the cat in my av, this was a black and white girl.

She had been declining badly, and I would have taken her to the vet if she looked like she was hurting badly. In the end, she took the choice out my hands. We said goodbye, and she walked, with great difficulty, out to the woods. She knew the fox lived there. She didn't come back. I saw no point in going look for her. It might sound weird, but I had to respect her choice.

She lived to torment me, and I miss her terribly.

Very sorry to hear when someone loses a pet. It's very tough, I know. Fifteen years is a long time. My cat died 5 years ago. I had him for 16 years. It was very difficult, very painful. I knew he was dying, and I sat with him all weekend, day and night. At one point on Sunday, I went out for about 5 minutes to take out the garbage. While I was gone, he stopped breathing. I think he held on while I was there, but felt able to let go when he was alone. That's the type of thing they do.

This is just one reason why I don't like having pets. I get attached to them and then they die.

Better to have loved with loss, than never to have loved at all.

But, you're missing out on all the fun, funny things they do....and how much they like you too, also!
