So sorry for your loss. I know the pain too well.

Sharkie sounds like a lovely cat.

10% of cats over 10 years old die of mouth cancer. I've had three of them in the past 4 years.

It always hurts when you lose a cat or dog. Since I take care of 18+ cats every day, I lose a few each year. The indoor cats hurt the most.

It always feels good when you immortalize them by putting it out on the internet. I lost my daughter ten years ago and was in a daze for 6 months until I put out a YouTube and then I felt better as a part of her will always be out there.

Sorry to hear your bad news but remember, there is always another kitty out there who needs your love.

and comfort to his grieving loved ones.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious Sharkie. Thank you for sharing him with us.

You're a great human beings for caring for such a handsome fellow. Peace be with you.

I'm so sorry. We had to put our beloved dog Jagger to sleep a couple weeks ago after a brief illness that cruelly took him down with rapidity.

We only had Jagger for 5 years.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

how sad. so unexpected ...

known and loved him.

So many people losing their furry family members today! They all have gone loved and not alone. But you still miss them forever.

He was a very handsome boy and obviously precious to you. I know how hard it is to lose a fur baby who has been a much loved member of your family for so long. I hope you can take comfort in the knowledge that you did the very best thing for him by ending his suffering. May he live forever in your ❤!

I am sorry, but, he no longer is feeling any pain.

Rest easy, Sharkie.

He was one of a kind.

I know the feeling, it's so hard....my grandma called it "the price of love"

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...

Many of us have lost a pet.

That was nice.

Fly free to the Rainbow Bridge sweet boy.

So sorry for your loss.

I still miss her a lot, but my new kitty Kira is sure being affectionate.

kitty Kira is very cute, do you think she would like the treadmill?

the mouth cancer is so horrible; I lost my Meanie cat to this over a year ago (she was very sweet). It was sad to see her wither away; sad so sad to say goodbye.❤️😿 I adopted her during the first days of covid lockdown, from a shelter where she was dumped with her sister. I guessed it was a clean-up after her owner passed away. She only lived with me over a year before the mouth cancer started. i am so sorry for your baby's passing.

The mouth cancer is horrible. I hope the brief time you had together was special.

are THE BEST. My late, great Willie (see avatar pic) also died of mouth cancer, as did my dear, sweet Noodle (also a tuxie.)

Sorry for your loss of your tuxies Willie and Noodle, tuxies are the best.
