My kitty died tonight. She was a very good kitty. I've had her since I was 11 years old. Tonight will be the first time in nearly 19 years I've had to sleep alone. For those that don't know, endorphin74 and his boyfriend are absolute angels. They picked us up and brought us to the vet (as I was too much a mess to drive) and came in the room with me to say goodbye. Anyway, just letting it out a little. And saving a bit of orgnote space... Pets are family members too | |

I'm so sorry for you. The cat I grew up with got kidnapped when she was 22! By a bunch of drunken bastards. I never got to know what happened exactly... It's a sad loss, but your kitty had a beautiful age and probably a beautiful life too ! | |

Just this side of Heaven is a place called "Rainbow Bridge" . When an animal passes away who has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows, hills, lakes and streams for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine, and our friends are warm, comfortable, and safe. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are very happy and content.....except for one small thing. They each miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but a day comes when one will suddenly stop and stare into the distance. His bright eyes widen and are intent. His eager body quivers in anticipation. Suddenly he begins to run from the group...flying over the green grass. His legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend meet, you cling to each other in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face. Your hands again caress their beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting, loving eyes of your friend, who was gone from your life.....but who was never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge....together. | |

![]() I have MUCH respect for a human that can put aside their selfish needs to do what is best for their animal family! You did the right thing!! I have three dogs that are my children and I cherish every moment with them and I hope I can be as brave and unselfish as you when they get old or sick and need help passing on. You are a brave, loving soul!! Your kitty is now your angel!! | |

I know that it was a very hard decision to make, because our animals become our children, but please know that it probably was the best one. I'm sure your kitty knew that you were doing the right thing for her, and that you did out of love because you didn't want her to suffer. On a positive note, it's so great to see so many animal lovers here on the org. When I posted about a year ago that I put my cat Shadow to sleep, the outpouring of sympathy was overwhelming and much appreciated, as I'm sure it is for Carrie. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Oh I'm so sorry to hear this, what a sad thing to happen I hope it won't spoil you trip, I'll hug you for real when you get to Amsterdam and hope you are still able to have lots of fun. Good to hear you have such good friends (and orgers too) to help you out a little. | |

Gosh Carrie. I'm just reading this now. And I know exactly what you're going through. I've lost 3 dogs and each one was the hardest thing I'd gone through up to that point. I never had to put any of them to sleep (thank God) and I can only imagine the agony that came with your decision. I know what an animal person you are and that you don't see or treat them any differently than you would your human friends and family. That's the hardest part about it. They can be your best friend and are always unconditional. All I can say from my experience is that the pain after losing a loved one subsides and you're left with some of your greatest memories. I feel blessed to know the animals I've had and have now and I wouldn't be the person I am without them. And I'm sorry I never got to meet your sweet baby. Let me know if I can help you in any way.
