Poor little Scurrycat

So upset. Scurrycat went out on Saturday night during the awful snowstorm after spending a lovely evening asleep on the sofa. Frantic searching throughout the next few days after her non return.

Last night neighbour informed us there was a deceased cat on the side of the road very near to our cottage. It was her....only visible after the thaw, apparently hit by a car. Absolutely gutted.

Feel ridiculous. Cried at the vets when i took her to be cremated... tried to bury her but couldn't dig dep enough.

So sorry Flowers.

So sorry. I've just had to have my old boy put to sleep this evening. It's devastating!

Thank you. She was a feisty little madam. So cute and cuddly. Feel daft. A 50 year old crying at her loss.

Who is going to destroy the christmas tree now and wind up the spaniel? Silly, silly cat.

It's natural, you just hate to think of them coming to any harm and you miss them x

How sad, poor little cat. So sorry for you Scurry Flowers.

Vinorosso74 · 14/12/2017 21:14

And for you Cataline Flowers. We had our girl PTS early last month.

My heart breaks for you I can't imagine losing one of my cats through accident. We moved to a new house recently and I made the decision to keep mine in as much too near a main road. My BIL had to scoop one up off that road not too long ago and I can't bare it to be mine.

Thanks and Wine and Cake

So sorry, RIP scurrycat Flowers
I lost a beloved cat to the road last year, heartbreaking Sad

Weedsnseeds1 · 14/12/2017 22:24

Of course you are crying. She was your pet and you loved her.

TheLongRider · 14/12/2017 22:40

It's absolutely fine to be mourning her. You're posting in the right place. None of us like losing a much-loved pet.

Thanks pain will ease. She'll always be with you. I think about my cats who've gone to rainbow bridge, everyday.

So sorry for your loss. Poor scurrycat. I lost my Ruby to a car accident in September and cried buckets and I m 49. Everyone on here is lovely though and we know it's a real loss so it's ok to grieve. I still cry about Ruby sometimes, it's ok to love them and mourn them
