I am not really a cat lover, but I know how I feel about my dog, and she is a member of the family. I am very sorry for your loss.

Thanks Takeda Shingen, you don't really know how much you get attached to pets untill something like this happens, I live in the bush & cats are a must really for the rats, mice & yes even the snakes, better the cat than one of my grand children! But yes it still hurts!

Cheers.

Reece, a double blow that must of hurt big time, sorry to hear that bad news I know how it hurts. I like cats as they are smart not like a dog at all try throwing a stick for the cat to pick up and the cat looks at you as to say you threw the stick don't look at me.

I know what your saying Steed, Dogs have masters & Cats have slaves!!

An old saying but quite true!

I try not to think about it now, the last thing the vet said is would you like to say goodbye, all I could do was say no & swallow a few times, trying to tough it out, grown men don't cry, maybe not but I got close!!

Anyway enough of this bad news.
I am looking forward to finding a new kitten, my wife says I'm an old softy!

Reece, you have my sympathy on this. I lived out of the way of civillisation with my Cat for 18 1/2 years and was broken hearted when she had to be put down, couldn't cry or listen to music for weeks, I was so numb.
I had her cremated and kept the ashes and also have an online Memorial to her ..

Reece, I found the Memorial a great help, something you could maybe consider ?

I used to have a cat that would fetch rolled up socks... bring em back and deposite them right in front of your feet and patiently wait for you to toss em again... I think he was a "Tabby Retriever"....

My heartfelt smpathies as I am an animal lover and don't want to know what my emotions would be if I lost one of my family members'

Agreat memorial to your cats would be to go to the Animal Shelter and adopt a couple of cats.

They need homes and love too. And as you know will give back unconditional , unlimited love. Go do it. Now.
