Cats, cats, cats

wallycat, I'm so sorry for your loss. She was beautiful.

Wallycat RIP Bandita. Sincere condolences.

Wallycat..I am so sorry for your loss. We had to put our little girl Levy down a few weeks ago too. No way to describe the sadness it brings. Hugs to you.

Thank you, ladies.

I am just a zombie at the moment. Simple tasks that remind me of her, and I am wailing and sobbing. I appreciate the kind words and sympathies. Only "pet people" understand the deep pain.

Wallycat, cry all you need. And come on here when you need.

Venus and Diana. Venus ( the one in the back) crossed the bridge unexpectedly just before Thanksgiving 2016. Wallycat, She had fluid around her lungs, too, and some sort of mass on her lung. I still miss her every day. She was a sweetheart

FeelingFeline, nobody ever gets that, so thank you for saying it! Venus was a little love bug, and Diana was very playful and always stalking toys. It seemed appropriate.

my 9 month old ginger tom cat was run over outside my house on Sunday, brought him to the vet he said was nothing he could do as apart from broken pelvis tail he had internal injuries which they couldn't fix we had to get him put to sleep on Monday I'm devastated I waited for years to get a cat because our dog hated cats he died in January so we got 2 hand reared kittens from my mother all was going great neutered them and kept them in at night I am devastated his sister is going round bawling looking for him I'm so sad.

Lorri, I'm so sorry about your cat. It is always so hard to lose them, but I think when it is unexpected like that, it feels even worse.

I have left my cats at home alone for a week, but usually have someone come by to check on them mid-week. I set up extra litter boxes (2-3 extras) and put extra food & water bowls all around the house. They've always been fine, but I worry about them when I'm gone.

Lorri sincere condolences. Hope your girl cat becomes happier XX

;o))

Lorri -sorry for your loss. Heartbreaking! When a child I had a cat hit by a car 3 times, though she managed to live a ling life. Sadly, this is the risk we take by letting our sweeties outside. Only in last 10 years have I had cats and was determined to keep them indoors as MY heart could not take the risk of what would happen to them roaming free. I invested in a Purrfect Cat Fence, and if not in Europe, they have even better designs over there for letting cats out, but not OUT. Recently I got 2 younge Devon Rexes. They are serious climbers and knew the tall trees in my yard would be very tempting (and no way to secure them, and overtime, even the fence gets chewed on by animals in spring creatng holes I might not see to fix right away), so i got them a catio. No, it is not the same as they don't get to chase butterfies, etc.., but they love the smells and to watch the birds.

As far as going away, someone to visit the home once or twice a day and otherwise they should stay indoors. Your heart will be happier and your cat safer.

Catio:

They have a cat door from the house to the catio
