My beautiful boy has died

[FedUpWithBriiiiiick]

Got a call from a local vet to say my beautiful Watson had been brought in dead.

He had visited a neighbour, as was his usual, and passed away in his house. The neighbour very kindly brought him to the vet and they checked his microchip and rang me.

It was peaceful, and there were no signs of trauma or poisoning. Likely just his wee heart.

I'm on my way to the vet now from work. Trying to hold back tears on the train. He was only 7. My poor beautiful boy 😢

I'm so sorry.

Sending you hugs, RIP Watson xx

I'm so sorry.

I’m so so sorry, my boy went to sleep on Saturday, blood clot totally unexpected, he was 15 though but still I miss him. Can’t believe I won’t ever see him again big hugs xx

I'm so sorry.

I hope you have many good memories of him.

RIP dear puss

Sending you hugs OP. It hurts like hell, but take comfort in the fact that he had a good life, was loved, and knew he was loved.

💐

I’m so sorry

I am so sorry for you losing him. It sounds like he was well loved and had a lovely life, and a quick end without pain or sadness. There was nothing you could have done differently and he loved you very much. 💐

Thank you all for your kind thoughts, and I'm so sorry for your loss too @Loopy9

Vet thinks it may have been a clot too. And that he was probably older than we thought.

to all those who've lost a precious pet

So sorry to hear about your lovely boy. I know it's so hard at the moment, but try and hold on the fact that in the time he had you'd given him a loving home and up until the end he'd been out enjoying himself.

I'm so sorry What a horrible shock for you.

I’m so sorry. I’m sure Winston had the best ever 7 years with you xxx

Watson sorry ❤️

I’m so very sorry. I’m sure your lovely kitty had a wonderful life and knew how much he was loved. Xx

Don't worry @FrankieChips 😊 you actually made me smile because MIL always called him Winston by accident.

He was a rescue cat, we got him 4.5 years ago and he was in a sorry state - rotting teeth, only just neutered, gummy eyes. He was a bit thick bless him, couldn't jump up at all. But so loving and gentle. He was spoilt rotten by us, best of everything. I'm grateful he lived his last in comfort.

Oh what a beautiful boy.

Well done for giving him a lovely life.

It sounds like it happened suddenly so hopefully he didn't suffer.

What a gorgeous boy. I’m so sorry

My rescue cat disappeared overnight and turned up in someone's garden in similar circumstances. I consoled myself that he'd gone peacefully doing something he loved (mousing). Still sad and a shock but a small comfort.

Watson was gorgeous.

What a terrible shock. I'm so sorry for your loss. He was a very handsome boy & it sounds like he had a wonderful life with you.

So sorry for your loss op

Thanks again all for your kind words 

Sorry for your loss too @SoupDragon. I've been lurking on your kitten thread, I hope they bring you so much joy!

Thank you. I hoping they will brighten up an otherwise shitty year :)

He was beautiful, so sorry to hear that he has gone too soon but wonderful that you were able to give him such a lovely life after he came to you xx
