My heart is broken and I can’t find the words to say much more.
Little One is the beautiful cat I use as my avatar. She would have been 17 years old in a few months. She passed away peacefully at home yesterday (Saturday, Jan. 18, 2014).
She had slowly began eating less in the last couple of days, which was something she did from time to time. When she went, she went quickly within 24 hours.
There is so much I want to say about her, but it will have to be at a later time. I want you to know how very special she is to me. I just can’t do it right now.
Hug those you love (two and four-legged). They can be gone before you know it.
My heart hurts for you. Nothing is much worse than losing a fur baby. She was just lovely; there is something so exquisite about torties. Cherish the many years of beautiful memories you had together.
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry. She was an adorable kitty. I'm glad the two of you had so many years together. It is never easy losing a family member. I'll be thinking of you. *Hugs*
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. At least she was at home with those she loved.
ReplyDeleteHugs to you, my friend.
Oh Mason. I'm sitting here crying as I'm typing this. My heart is breaking for you. It's always devastating to loose a beloved cat, but to loose her so suddenly - there are no words. You're in my thoughts. Be gentle with yourself during this hard time. I hope in time, memories of your time with Little One will replace the pain of missing her.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for your loss. {{{Hugs}}}
ReplyDeleteMason - Oh, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know Little One meant the world to you and I'm sure you did to her, too. Please take care of yourself and know that all of us are thinking of you at this time. {{Hugs}}
ReplyDeleteMason, I'm so sorry. Furry friends are more than friends - they are family.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for your loss. I know what you are going through. I've lost three kitties of my own. Now I'm losing my six year old. He is dying of kidney failure. I hug him all the time. Big hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. This is pretty much what happened to my 15 year old dog in November. I know how painful it is to feel your heart breaking. What a lovely life she must have had with a loving family.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you.
Ann
Oh, I am so sorry! After losing Calvin and Hobbes, I know it's just crushing.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for the lovely thoughts and hugs. It means a great deal and helps knowing others understand the loss. Those those of you who have also suffered a loss, I'm so sorry and sending hugs back to you as well.
ReplyDeleteSorry for your loss, Mason.
ReplyDeleteOh, Mason. I am so very sorry to hear you have lost, Little One. So heartbreaking. The pain of loss is positively gut-wrenching. I feel for you. Truly I do.
ReplyDeleteI lost Coco, my little shih tzu, last year. I will never get over it. She was and still is my avatar on twitter.
This is no consolation whatsoever, but she will always be with you in spirit and as your avatar (I hope) for the rest of the world to see.
The pain get marginally less with the passage of time.
Take care of yourself xoxox
I am so terribly, terribly sorry!!! My share in your devastation and heartbreak. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and close to my heart ((((hugs)))))
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. Loosing our fur babies is devastating. According to my sister Tortie cats are very special.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry that you lost your precious "Little One". I understand your pain all too well. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteOh so sad! I'm very sorry for your loss, Mason.
ReplyDeleteMason, it is so hard to lose a pet. They are a special member of the family. I'm so sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteI just saw your comment and immediately raced to your place. I'm sorry to hear about Little One, but I know how well loved she was. Her and Essy definitely could have been sisters, I imagine they're somehow together causing trouble like we loved. <3 <3 <3
ReplyDeleteI did not know. I am so sorry. As I know it is never easy. May she rest in peace. Thank you for your kind words. There are no words that ever make it easy-they leave a mark on our heart.
