Things die only when they are forgotten.
Remember the time you spent with your cat, it still lives in your heart.

Sucks man. Sorry.

This is why I can't have pets; you grow so attached to them

Condolences man.

Felt the same when 2 of my dogs I spent the childhood with passed away. The thing is, I still remember them vividly.

Sorry for your loss.

@Captain: You could say the same about girlfriends then. Or anything really. Is your solution to life just going by without anything? Even Hitman has his guns.

Agreed, but they have such short lifespans normally, but it guess it depends breed and whatnot. (my husky growing up only lived to 6, and for the last year she was really sick)

Archie at least you had a good long time with her

I know how that feels, Arch. Sucks.

I'm sure she couldn't have lived a better life cuz I can't think of a better person.

Sorry to hear that mate, condolences...

I'm sure she was really happy and glad to have an awesome owner like you, who'd help her to live so long.

Once again, sorry to hear that.

Condolences, Archie.
No shame in crying when you lose a pet - they're a member of the family, and losing them is hard. But like CT and Rim said, you had a lot of years with her, and she must have had a wonderful life with you.

My cat died about 4 years ago. One of my friends had a cat, until a car hit the cat. My friend still upset.

Aww, that sucks. I'm sorry to hear.

When a cat lives to the age of 21 you know its had a good life - 21 cat years is ~over a hundred human years. Well looked after, so you did good Archie!

Sorry to hear Archie I got a kitty not too long ago and he's the man.
Cat's are wonderful companions and are part of the family. My deepest condolences go out to you.
The pain of loss does not outweigh the many years of happiness you have gotten from his company. Give yourself time to reflect and heal, then get another cat.
No animal will ever replace the ones you have lost, but it never hurts to open your heart to another friendship.
I Wish you the best.

Thankyou all so much. Really.

I don't know what I'd do if my little kitty died, that sucks sooooo much. D:

fucking hell the cat was 21?
my god if anything archie you should be glad she / he even lived that long, must've been a fighter!

yeah losing a pet is always a horrible thing, especially ones that have been with you since you were a wean. I felt heartbroken when one of mine died a couple years back, so horrible. What was worse was seeing him after the vet gave us the cat back, but at least we could bury him.

my condolences

It's a terrible thing to lose a beloved pet, condolences.
