[Pat Pattle]

A real shame, sorry to hear that mate.

[dancat]

thanks, it's messed up how an animal can have more influence on your life than some people.
I'm still looking around the house for him when I get up to move.

[ndicki]

Sorry about this, Jon. They do sort of grow on you, don't they?

[OldCrow]

The loss of a pet you love really is hard. I've been threw it many times in my 40 years existance and it's never easy. I currently have 6 dogs and a cat, so you know I'm an animal lover.

Sorry to hear about your loss.

[remcoc]

Last year I had to let go my old cat who was with me for 15 years. I recognise everything you write Dancat.

I still haven't got the courage to find a new one.

I'am sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Never replaced my cat or dog which both lived 15 years+.

Inherited 2 tortoises from my mum both 60 years and in the prime of life.

Guess it will be them seeing me off.

A year ago my mother,Pat passed away peacefully. Two days later a stray cat shows up and refuses to leave the back patio. The cat wore me down and Mooshy now lives with me. You have alot to give. Hang in there.

[KellyB]

Been there a number of times with cats and dogs. It is amazing how attached we become to them and what a hole in our lives there is when they're gone.

Sympathies.

You are lonely, not alone.

So true I lost my cat ten years ago I still miss him , he was 16

[BeauBrummie]

All that above... we're looking at old Pebbles who's approx 18 and now a deaf, partially blind old cat whose back legs are starting to go. Like your old Fella Dancat, she loves the PC, strolling across the keyboard (finding weird key shortcuts which you can never find again) sitting on my lap and nagging me if I move to much. I'll be amazed if she see's the year out. She's so different to the other 3 cats and will be sadly missed.

[Cromwell]

They see if you have ever loved an animal, when it dies it leaves such a hole in your heart all the others fall straight in!!

Sorry for your loss.

[flyer01]

Sorry to hear this. We have a cat that is 22-23 years old and do not know what we will do when she is gone. She is in good shape for the shape she's in. We have 6 dogs and too other cats in the house + a new cat that should up that we feed outside.
Sorry to hear of your loss.

[alain95]

I'm also very sorry for your pet friend, since february whe are three, my girlfriend, me and the 5 y.o Minou, I didn't took interest to the cats before but week after week Minou takes a greater place in my mind and in my heart, sitting on the left side of my keyboard as a joke response to the mouse on the right. I'm Ok with Marie that believes there's a paradise for all that lives on earth...

I share you feelings.
God bless them
Alain

15674mack RIP


Sorry to hear, man. I too lost mack last October, so hasnt been a year yet. But I moved on and got a new one at 6months old. Biting wires all over the apartment.

[dancat]

I'm thinking I won't be getting another.
it's getting easier I guess, I've stopped looking for him every night I get home from work.
and have stopped leaving the bedroom door ajar so he can come in and wake me up in the wee hours of the morning...
still remembered and missed.
I've yet to go back in front of my pc to work on my models though..

Dan hiding under the island at my apartment, he didn't like it there so I had to bring him back to my parents where he lived his 10 years with us.

[loverboy1]
