My cat died yesterday

He was only 7 and I'm really sad. I saw him yesterday morning and was talking to him. He got up and sort of collapsed, it was horrible. I rushed to get dressed so I could take him to the vets and when I came back downstairs he had died. At the time I knew it was serious and I wasn't sure he'd survive the journey to the vets anyway. I kind of feel I shouldn't have bothered to get dressed and just sat with him. I just wonder if he'd have been more comforted if I'd stayed with him.

Sad

So sorry for you. I think it happened so quickly that he wouldn't have known you weren't there. A similar thing happened to my cat, she deteriorated really quickly at the vets and I felt guilty for leaving her.
You were doing your best for him-you didn't know what was going to happen and planning to take him to the vets was the right thing to do.

So sorry. Try not to worry. You cant have known he would die before you had got dressed, and taking him to the vets was the right thing to do.
