Need a hug

My cat collapsed and died this morning, I can barely remember driving to the vets.
It seems so unreal, I worry for his sister who's hiding, my husband, how to tell people without falling to pieces, I just feel numb, when I left him at the vets he looked like he was sleeping. No warning, no illness, nothing, he wasn't even old, stayed indoors and was spoiled rotten. He just flopped down, had a fit or something. I literally cannot even think straight Sad

I'm so sorry and sending big hugs. I e lotst let's do old age but I lost our believes bearded dragon very young, very suddenly and with no warning last summer and it was the worst. Be PP have said be gentle with yourself, it will take a long time to sink in. Don't try and be strong for others, you all need to grieve together. Sounds like the most loving cat, you poor thing Thanks

I'm so sorry Flowers

Wish I could give you a real hug. That just sounds awful. Take care of yourself.

He sounds like a much much loved pet. I'm sure he enjoyed spending every minute with you. Flowers

ilovesooty · 01/04/2018 16:11

I'm so sorry. He was really really loved.

ArtyKitty · 01/04/2018 18:16

Im so sorry. I'd give you a hug and I'm not a hug kind of person. Its talking to other people that's so hard. Even when you think you're OK. Take care. X

TroysMammy · 01/04/2018 18:20

I'm so sorry. It happened to me but I knew Troy had heart problems at the age of 5 but it didn't make it any easier. Hugs and Flowers for you all.

Hamsterian · 01/04/2018 18:21

How awful! I’m sure he felt very loved. He sounds wonderful. Sending you hugs.

zukiecat · 01/04/2018 18:24

Sending you Big Hugs

ThanksThanks

So sorry OP, we lost our last cat in May last year he was 18, he went suddenly we still really miss him, but we were privileged to live with him since a kitten, you must feel very sad. It’s a cliche I know but time is a great healer. Take it easy, the next few weeks it won’t be easy, based on my experience. Flowers

bobstersmum · 01/04/2018 18:43

So very sorry op it's so sad, it sounds like he had the very best life with you though, even if it was far too short. Hugs and love to you x

TheOddSock · 01/04/2018 19:18

So sorry. Let yourself grieve and remember your lovely kitty ❤️❤️❤️

Sleeplessinguiltyness · 01/04/2018 19:20

Thank you all. He was spoiled rotten and his sister will continue to be, even more so. Even though they are both mine, he was such a mummys boy

Big hugs, it's 2 years today since my Poppycat passed away, I still have her son, and I'm sure he's taken on parts of her personality in the 2 years she's been gone, still miss her though

LaGattaNera · 01/04/2018 19:45

So very sorry OP what an awful loss for you and what a lovely life he must have had with you albeit cut too short many many hugs for you xx

Firstimefreaked · 01/04/2018 20:13

It's so incredibly painful when you loose a fur baby, Spin passed away 2 years ago today as well I kept thinking it must be a sick joke, my other cat Blue died a year ago next month. It still hurts a bit I'm sending cuddles from baby and me xxx 💜💚💜💚💜

WhatsGoingOnEh · 01/04/2018 22:44

Oh you poor thing, OP. Have a massive hug. And a cup of tea. And all the biscuits in the jar.

I've always found boy cats much cuddlier and less aloof than girls, so I bet he really felt like your little friendly shadow. What a horrible shock.

He was happy and loved and with you right up to the end.

Did the vet say what had happened?

plominoagain · 01/04/2018 22:49

That’s dreadful, I’m so sorry . I remember the day we lost our furry boy cat and finding him collapsed with no warning . Awful awful time .

Many hugs for you .

PostcodeJack · 01/04/2018 22:50

So sorry for your loss OP x

SidekickSally · 01/04/2018 22:53

Aw, so sorry for your loss. I understand what you're going through having lost my beautiful cat a few months ago. Sending you a big hug.

jacobsgirl · 02/04/2018 05:20

I have two kitty's and dread to think about when this day comes for me

I'm sure he had a wonderful life and is very grateful

Big hugs

TheMaddHugger · 02/04/2018 05:46

Really Soft ((((((((Madd Hugs))))))) and another ((((((((Hug))))))) Sad

Clandestino · 02/04/2018 06:04

So sorry, hugs to you.

2018SoFarSoGreat · 02/04/2018 06:23

Oh no. How very sad. Poor little guy and poor you. His sister will be confused.

I know the shock will take some time to pass. I hope all the hugs help, even a little. 💗
