Can I tell you about my cat?

[heathcliffthe2nd]

My 11 year old boy died last night. Just made some weird breathing noises , did a poo, then collapsed. I stroked him and talked to him whilst he died. All very sudden. I take comfort that he wasn’t poorly and didn’t have to go to the vet (he hated the vets) and I was with him. But I am going to miss that fat fluffy boy.

What a gorgeous boy 💙 what was his name? I'm very sorry for your loss x

Poor you.

He loos like he was a lovely boy.

So sorry OP. 😢You're right it was a good way for him to go. But too soon, love him.
He looks an amazing character.

Would you like to tell us his name?

So very sorry for your loss, such a shock for you

He was called Biscuit. My daughters named him and his brother when we got them. His brother is Chip and he’s very confused at the mo.
Bisc could be a bit of a psycho but gave the loveliest cuddles (when he wanted to).

So sorry op. They really are part of the family aren't they. People who aren't into cats just don't appreciate what great little bundles of fur they are. My 10 month old baby was hit by a car a few weeks ago and I collected his ashes yesterday but I think I'd have been more upset if it had been my older cat as she really is my shadow (when she chooses to be of course!). Hugs x

Oh OP - Biscuit is absolutely beautiful. He looks like the plushest boy! I'm sorry for your loss, like you said it's a comfort you could be with him in that time, and I'm sure that will have made him feel comforted too x

What a lovely, happy looking boy. Sitting in his bath and at his work station, ready for you to dispense your work of cat patting. I'm sorry you've lost him but although it must have been awful you were able to love him as he slipped away. He had your love. Gorgeous boy.

So sorry, he’s a beauty.

Aww, Biscuit was a gorgeous boy. So sorry OP. Must of been a shock.

If you have not burried Biscuit yet then lets his brother see the body. That's CP's advice.

Aw. What a gorgeous boy 🐾.

What a gorgeous boy. Sounds like he had a lovely life with you. It's so hard when we lose a darling animal companion. <hugs>

Thank you everyone for your kind words. Much appreciated. It’s hard in real life so it’s nice to just talk freely on here.

he was gorgeous. I am glad you were with him.

Biscuit was gorgeous. I'm sure you have many happy memories of him. We'd love to hear about his best stories.

I just wanted to add a post to remember Biscuit, and to hope that Chip is ok.

A lovely cat in a loving home. Both you and Biscuit were very lucky. X

We lost 1 of a duo. Very sad and more so for dcat left behind.. I caved after 8 months and got a dkitten..
Sorry for your loss op. Looks a real gentleman...

So very sorry for you. Sounds like an idea way to go for him. At home and surrounded by love.

I agree with letting his brother see him. He will understand.

I'm so sorry. Biscuit looks gorgeous. It's so awful when they go x

So sorry, he is such a beautiful boy. Losing a pet is so painful.

I’m sorry, I lost mine 3 years ago of Friday and I still miss him everyday.

What a beautiful boy Biscuit was. ❤️

Take comfort in the fact that you were with him op. Sounds like he had a great life. My ginger boy died suddenly in our garden this summer, at the time I was absolutely devastated but looking back I can appreciate that he had a wonderful life and just fell asleep in our garden on a summers day. Your boy looked like a handsome chap.
