Cats and dogs are so endearing. I fall in love with strays all the time, in addition to the ones I've owned. When the strays stop visiting or the housemates die, it's a horrible feeling. I don't know if I could handle something like a parrot, though a hatchling now would probably outlive me. Turtles, definitely. Interesting how some animals that are made into pets can outlive the original owner by decades while others die within a couple.

Sorry to hear that, it's tough losing one fo the family for sure. We just lost our dog and the house is so different without the goober calling the shots.

When my grandma passed, we had to find a home for one. Cool pets but very noisy and messy!

Mine died a month ago. It didn't come unexpected but I still can basically think of nothing else. The death was very sudden.

It hurts like a bitch

Yeah, it does.

my condolences anons. I find that having another cat helps with grieving and moving on. Just don't think of the new one as replacement, but a new member of the family.

my younger cat died around may, i got them to give my first one company, it was hard to see them go, but the first one is still there and I need to be there too.

I have to take this moment to tell everyone, please anons if you have a kitty and you notice any strange change in behavior, even if it minor, even if it's kitty becoming more grumble-some, or if you notice them walking a bit funny, PLEASE take then to the vet immediately. Because when whatever manifests, it's going to be too late and it'll happen to quick for you to do anything about it.
