Today, my cat Bubbles passed away. She lived for 8 years. She had heart issues, so I knew she wasn’t going to live for as long as other cats, but I wasn’t ready. She died peacefully in her sleep. I miss her. This is the first time I’ve dealt with a sudden pet death. Does anyone have advice?
my last childhood cat passed away at the end of last year at home as well, she lived to be 13 and had heart and weight issues. it wasn't a pleasant home death unfortunately, I wish I had brought her in to be put to sleep but it all happened so fast I didn't know. I hope that you remember all of the good times you spent together and just how happy and lucky you both were to have each other. It's going to be cold nights and sadness for a while, but it gets better over time. I've had 3 cats in my life pass away as I've grown, it never gets easier and I've cried rivers each time but all life eventually passes and I have learned to accept it while still being sad about it
just last month I got a tattoo of one of the oldest cats I had, Ginger. she was my best friend and I wanted to remember her in the form of art so I feel like having this helps me since I miss her so much still. I remember when she died I told myself I was never going to get another cat again because of how heart broken I was but a few months later I found a kitten at a flower shop so I brought her home and she made me feel so much better after the death of Ginger, so once you're healed from this heartache the only good advice I can offer is to use that love by helping another animal who needs it
