First of all, thank you very much for all your kind words, not many people I know around me can understand the pain of losing your soulmate companion. I'm so grateful.
Hey. I am so sorry about your cat. From the bottom of my heart I understand this pain. I just lost my dog a few months ago. She was my heart and soul, the light of my life and I was sticking around just for her.
I'm not going to lie to you nothing can take away the hurt except maybe time. But some things that have helped me were making a memorial to my dog. Either outside or inside. Just a beautiful spot with some flowers and a little stone with decorations. If you have any belonging of your pet keep them close. I made a scrap book full of wonderful memories of my dog. Talking about the happy memories of her and never letting that go has helped me. Do you have some family or close friend to share memories with? I write down each memory of her so I never lose them. Many people say to get another pet after you l lose one but personally I disagree because nothing can replace our best friends (unless you want another pet)... although I already had another dog. I try to take comfort in knowing that my beloved best friend is at peace now.
I know there is nothing that can be said or done to take away the pain these are just a few things that helped me. I sincerely hope that your cat will return though. I know this is such a hard thing to go thru our pets become our best friends, our family and are so special. If you ever need someone to talk to feel free to message me. Hug.
I had in mind the memorial thing, and yes, my family in general shared beautiful memories with her, i'll try to make a scrapbook with drawings and pics of my darling because even if in a future I had another pet, how I could ever forget her? The only thing that gives me a bit of hope is knowing that for some reason someone took her to their house and they're taking good care of her. Thank you so much for your words and tips, I appreciate them so much.
heart goes out to you........my cat went missing and we searched and searched........no sign.......then suddenly 3 days later there he was in our back garden!! maybe he'd got locked in someone's garden shed by accident!? held him in my arms as he was put to sleep back in 2015
i'm so sorry for your loss, Im all the time looking in the backyard in case that she returns home hoping she is stuck somewhere but safe, I just want to held her in my arms again as you say.
I'm sorry for this. When it comes to cats, I've seen them disappear for months and return, even those that you think don't stray far - so don't give up hope.
I think with true animal lovers, the only thing we can do is to accept that we give these little creatures more love, than we give anyone. I am sure that this is what you did, but please don't give up hope of a safe return
Yeah, some people already told me that cats usually disappear for days and that they return like nothing happened, but she's never been the type to stay away from the backyard more than a couple of hours, plus, any neighbour haven't seen her so I'm extra worried. Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot to me.
It never gets easier, in my life i lost 6 cats and 1 dog. Paul & Berti , my two cats, are my best friends. They are one of the reasons i didn't ctb yet, but if i die they would go to my mother and brother.
They are my last cats in my life, i guess when they are gone i follow them.
Sometimes i dream of my cats from my childhood and teen years, these are one of the few happy moments in my life.
Haha now that she is gone I think i'm gonna ctb even sooner, I can't stand the thought of her being gone and even worse dead, I don't know what I will do without her, she was my whole heart. Sadly, if I ctb'd sooner I don't know where my cat would have been sent, so just to take care of her I was staying here. I'm so sorry for the lost of all of your pets, all my condolences to you.
