This is so GODD**NED UNFAIR! HE was such a great cat. I lost my first
"child" and I haven't cried in weeks until tonight's posting. How
long
will the heartache last? HE WAS ONLY SIX YEARS OLD. I love my
cats.
Why was he taken away? Why? Why didn't i recognize the signs? why
didn't the vet?!!??!! I wish I could go back and turn the clock. I
spend hours a months helping homeless pets and i neglected my own
cat?!
I feel so friggin' guilty. Please if you actually have time, please
say a little prayer that I'll have some peace. i just need peace.


Not all of your questions can be answered. But we have mostly all
lost family here and we know what you're going through. What was your
cat's name? What were his\her favourite things? How did he come to
pass away? If it's not too painful, we can Purrray better if we know
who and what we're purrraying for. What were the signs you didn't
recognise? Maybe there was nothing really there that you could have
done.
We generally find the story of the Rainbow Bridge to be a comfort. You
can find this at:
http://www.petloss.com/poems/maingrp/rainbowb.htm and maybe other
places on the Web.
You obviously loved your cat, and if you didn't recognize the "signs"
then it wasn't through a lack of caring. I suspect you did the best
you could under the circumstances and that's all anyone, (even
yourself), could have expected of you.
