My little cat died today

[JB107]

My little cat Coco, who was always there for me, had to be put down today after suffering another stroke. I miss her dearly and, as pathetic as it sounds, I don't know what I'll do without her.

That's awful news, I'm sorry that this happened.

It's not pathetic. For a lot of people, the bond that you have with a pet is a lot stronger than the ones that you have with humans. If you have a relative that you never see, or you lose someone that you've had a lot of conflict with, the loss might not be nearly as intense as with a pet that you've seen every day for years and have a positive affectionate relationship with.

How old was she, and how long did you have her?

Sorry hear about little coco. May she rest in peace. I'd be the same if anything happened to my bird. Thinking of you

I'm so sorry. It's not pathetic at all. My cats are everything to me, and I have a husband and family. Cats are so funny and cuddly and their purr is soothing. They are wonderful. I hope you see coco again one day. Maybe when you are ready you can adopt one of her relatives.

I should mention my beloved cat Oscar died 14 years ago and I still miss him. He was so very affectionate and extraverted and everyone loved him. He was a long-haired tuxedo cat. It absolutely ripped my heart out when he died. Look after yourself and be gentle with yourself and remember Coco wouldn't want you to hurt. She loved you and knew you loved her. I really hope we meet them again in a pleasant afterlife - I wish to see Oscar as much as any human. He used to annoy me with constantly wanting to be ON me - in my lap or lying on my chest when I was in bed. My current cats aren't lap sitters and I miss that so much although they are affectionate in other ways.

real & important.

JB107, I’m sorry for your loss. I’m glad she had you in her life to love her. Pets are members of the family and dear friends — you are not pathetic for grieving her loss.

I'm sorry to hear this. The loss of your precious Coco. It creates a huge hole and losing them is the painful part of having the gift of having them in your life.

She was 15.

I'm sorry for your loss too.
What you're living through now, I've lived my own version of multiple times.
We live longer than our four legged family and having to saying goodbye is the price we pay for loving them.

I send you heartfelt s for your loss as pets with their unconditional love, antics, quirks, and affection always have a special place in our hearts and lives. I hope that your heart mind and soul are filled with special memories of little Coco and bring you some comfort.

Sorry @JB107 . You were nobly brave to go through with the decision. She knew she had a wonderful human in you.

Sorry for your loss too. Rats are small animals with big personalities.

That is so sad. I will cry with you. I love cats. My family has always had cats and I know how hard it is to lose them. But there is an animal Heaven and your cat is safe there. You will see him/her again.

I'm so sorry, I know people who were heartbroken when they had to have their rat put down.
