My boy has been killed

[Crazycat16]

My gorgeous foofy boy Jasper was hit by a car this morning. I am very grateful to the dog walker who phoned me at 9:30 to tell me where he was, he was only a 10 second dash from our house. He must have been on his way home for his biscuits.

We are devastated.

He was beautiful. Rest in peace little furry boy x

So very very sorry. I lost my Ernie puddle exactly the same way, it hurts so much. I must admit I took in a little lost soul to give all that raw emotion something to focus on.

So sorry

Don't underestimate the grief from losing him-he was part of your family. We have the ashes from our old girl in a wooden cat casket and DD loves to cuddle her every now and again (I do too).

My son specifically asked for pictures of the boy cat we lost after we lost him. It gave him comfort. Felt like he was still around. Be kind to yourself OP you’re grieving.

So I am still doing lots of crying and keep thinking I am going to see him only to be crushed every time it hits me he has gone. I hate that I have to go past the place he was left at every time I leave the house, I can even see the spot if I look out of my bedroom window but I know it will all get easier in time.

We went out and bought a pretty bright yellow flowering plant for his grave this morning and I have planted it out. I have also ordered 45 photos of him, moment of madness. No idea what I am going to do with them all when I could see them any time on iCloud.

Thank you all for your comforting words and helping me through this upsetting time.

@Crazycat16 . So sorry for your loss. He was a beauty. I wish drivers would take more care x

I’m so sorry. 2.5 is no age at all. Just so you know, if you decide to get another cat, you can cat proof your garden so they can enjoy the outdoors safely.

I'm so sorry for your loss. What a stunning looking cat! They do leave their little paw prints over our hearts.

[Chickydoo]

Oh no! I am so so sorry for your loss.

So sorry for the loss of your beautiful Jasper lovely 💐

[Jayneisagirlsname]

I'm so sorry. What a beautiful boy and how loved he was. 💐

[Branleuse]

my kids also went on about wishing we had kept him inside, but thats no life for most cats. You did the right thing. He had a proper cats life, as you say, lying in the sun, chasing stuff, climbing trees. It comes with risks, but its worth it. A shorter life doing lovely things is better than a long life in a cage xx

Aww so sorry his has happened. I have 2 fur babies and they are members of the family. ❤️

[billybagpuss]

So sorry, its horrible when that happens and he wasn't very old

[Wolfiefan]

I am so very sorry for your loss. Remember him chasing butterflies and sniffing the air in the sun.

[HugoBearsMummy]

Sorry for your loss it's so hard losing a pet as they become part of the family. This is one of the reasons I'm put off getting a cat... RIP little guy 💔🐱

[Windygate]

So sorry 💐

[Silvercatowner]

Big hugs from me.

[Tavannach]

So sorry.

[mumsiedarlingrevolta]

@Crazycat16 so sorry for your loss. what a gorgeous boy.
I think if he wanted to be outside basking in the sunshine then it would have been cruel to keep him in. he had a lovely, although far too short, life!
