My cat has been found passed away today

Just need to write this down somewhere, my lovely, needy, Velcro 17year old cat has died.

She had gone completely deaf, never left my side, wouldn't use a litter tray so just briefly went outside. Last night she howled to go out and then didn't come back, she still wasn't home this morning. My husband was home from work before me and she was still nowhere to be seen. I had such a bad feeling.

I went out looking for her when I got home, I was just preparing a fb post about her when there was a knock at the door. I clocked her vet polo shirt and started crying. She had been found in someone's garden, they don't know if she had died then been got by something or if something had got her first. She was so deaf so wouldn't have heard anything.

I hope she didn't suffer. She didn't have long left anyway and had really slowed down. She was so loving and had to be constantly on someone's anyones knee.

So grateful to the lady who took her to the vet, at least I know.

Heartbroken

Oh I'm so sorry. Op. I'm very glad for your sake that she was found quickly so you aren't left worrying.

It's so hard losing a cat. They are a constant presence and a big part of our daily routine so there are reminders everywhere. I'm so glad you have another furry friend to keep your lap warm x

Sorry for your loss. I feel your pain.
I lost my dear Hen last night. Heartbroken. Numb. Can't stop crying. I hope the days get better 🙏
