Oh how sad...my heart goes out to you on the loss of your dear kitty.

Thanks for the sweet words in my journal.

It will get better but you have to grieve first. I mean really, you lost one of your best friends.

What helped me when I had to put one of my cats down was to tell myself that he had lived a full life and pretty much led the life of a spoiled house cat (much like yours I suspect). And in a strange way it was better to put him down (because I could sort of prepare myself for it) rather than think about the suffering he would have gone through and never knowing if this was the day I would come home and find out he had passed away.

I do promise it will get better with time but it's the whole time part that sucks the most.

Take your time, grieve and we'll all still be here when you feel up to chatting again!
