21 years is a long life, and I'm sure you made it happy for him, but it's never long enough. It hurts so much to lose a loved kitty.

My thoughts are with you.

My girl is 17 and has some health issues. I will be so sad when she goes, but she's had a good life, and I hope she has a few more good years.

I am certain he lived his long life partly because he received so much love from you. Our fur babies are members of our family, and it is so hard to come to terms with their loss. ((hugs)) May his memory be a blessing to you and your family.

I am so sorry for your loss. i just lost my Jenny which I've had for 19 years. But although she took a piece of my heart with her, she left a piece of her heart with me. Thank you so very much Montana cowboy, for the love you gave your precious gold kitty. Maybe she'll say "hello" to my sweet Jenny. Be good to her sweet Gold Kitty, Jenny's very fragile. but what a precious friend you will have. Tell her Mama misses her.

waiting for you. My orange boy Jack will keep him company, along with many other orange boys and girls. (Did you know that 80% of orange kitties are boys?)

I know the feeling....

Grieve not
nor speak of me with tears
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you
I loved you so
’twas Heaven here with you

You did good to give him twenty-one good years. And he did good to give you the same. May he rest, and may you live, in peace.

it can be devastating to lose someone we love


There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
