I’ve just got back from the emergency vet - my beautiful cat had to be put to sleep.

[Sidge]

It’s three in the morning and I’m so sad.

He was absolutely fine and then at midnight started yowling in distress and couldn’t weight bear.

Apparently he’d had a thrombus, a clot. He was put to sleep at 0145 as there’s nothing they could do for him.

I’m so upset. I’ve still got his fur on my cardigan. I’m going to miss him so much.

I'm so sorry Sidge. It is utterly heartbreaking. Cry as much as you need to. Be kind to yourself. Sending lots of love to you xxx

I'm so sorry Sidge. That's incredibly sad.

I'm so sorry for your loss sidge

So sorry

It's the worst part of having pets.

You got him help quickly, and he didn't suffer.

Thinking of you

Thank you all you lovely night owls and overseas posters.

I know he didn’t stand a chance, but it was so sudden and so shocking.

Can I share a pic of my beautiful boy?

Oh how awful. Please do share a pic and tell us about him. And once it stops being so raw try to be glad for the happy life you gave him.

He is beautiful. Sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry sidge. I can't imagine how id feel if this happened to my girl sending love and

He's beautiful Sidge. What was his name? If you want to share.

Oh gawd Siege how sad, and shocking. Am so sorry, sharing tears with you for a loss of one of ours too (a while back, but still a bit raw).

. You did good by him. You took the best and stopped it hurting for him, and that's hard.

He's truly gorgeous. Find yourself a substitute 'cuddle'.

Dcats and cozy places heh?!

Oh I'm so sorry. He was a beautiful boy

I'm so so sorry Sidge. He was a very handsome chap indeed. How lucky he was to have you as a Mumma who cared so much for him and looked after him so quickly xx

So sorry . He is beautiful x

I'm so sorry. What a beautiful boy.

He’s lovely, I’m sorry

What a handsome boy. I’m so sorry, that must have been a terrible shock

Very sad news. My thoughts are with you and him.

What a lovely boy. I'm so sorry for your loss.

What a shock for you. He was a beautiful boy. I'm so sorry.

Oh I'm so sorry @Sidge. What an awful night
Sending you best wishes, we went through something similar in August. Not healed and still lots of regular weeps but it does get better. For now be kind to yourself and remember the good times xx

So sorry to hear this

We went through similar in the summer and it's heartbreaking

They have such wonderful personalities that squirrel their way deep in to your hearts

Hope you've managed some sleep

So sorry for your loss Sidge. You have honoured your DCat by giving them dignity in death. The kindest gift
