For those who know me

Really sorry to to hear thet wit-ham. It is awful losing a pet.

Got her 6 months after moving in here
going to take some adjusting to

Sad to read your awful news wit-ham, it's a dreadful experience when you have to let them go.

Sincere condolences. I know EXACTLY what it feels like. Just think of the great home you gave her and what you received in return. She had a long life and I am sure she was well looked after.

Sad news. RIP.

Condolences wit-ham.

acquiesce being his usual charming self

Thanks all

cats have nine lives.

so sorry wit ham

Sorry to hear that, wit-ham.

A know these words wont help,but.................................look out for a new cat arriving ,and it will,and I know you will say its not the same,and then your love for the first will transfer to the new cat.And you think at this moment in time you could never love another cat the way you loved the first,but the law of attraction is bringing the new cat to you as I post and he will arrive when you least expect him.your grief for the first will attract the second towards you.the law of attraction is always further down the path you walk and knows everything about you.

So sorry for your loss Wit-Ham.

I am indeed raising a glass of Navy rum to your cat and you as I type.

It's a bloody awful thing to go through and I really hope you feel a bit better soon.

heartbreaking time wits, will raise that glass tonight buddy

As a dog owner I know how yer feeling wit-ham.
Is a sad time but our pets always leave us with some great memories.

Ffs its a cst

Cat

Sorry mate, it's never good to lose a pet, especially after so long.
Mind you, she had a reasonable innings and I'm sure, a happy home.

Thanks all for your kind words

You gave her a great life wit-ham.

All the best.

'Ffs, it's a cat.'

Some people are just born without souls aren't they?!

Sorry to hear that wit-ham.

Great Age  you knew the day was coming ,not that it makes it easier .

,I doubt your local feathered friends will be beside themselves with sorrow ,however as you have never offered any malice on delicate issues pertaining to animal rights ect ,I offer my condolence in your hour of grief at the sad passing of said furball ,18 years is a long time ,these sad feline freds just don't hold the same gravitas after the loss of the Croydon one ,do you have any anecdotes  on the life and times of said feline to lighten the mood  a notch                                                           roughly iyo how many birds were mercilessly and wilfully killed and maimed in her rein ? not to mention the thousands of innocent mice and voles slaughtered on a whim .

There is nothing like a tad of sympathy for pet owners at times like this, and breadnbutter, that was nothing like a tad of sympathy!

Respect. Well done for giving her a loving home.

breadnbutter, I am losing garden birds daily to a sparrowhawk. I am told a pair and their young would need over two thousand small birds per annum, it would take a good few cats to match that. Nature is unkind, should I hate the sparrowhawk?

I can honestly say that she never caught a bird
in all her life,but she did bring a mouse in as a prezzie
which i then released back over the garden fence

She never left the safety of the back garden in all her years

My little fellow had chemotherapy on Monday wit-ham, Supervet said one more year and that will be his lot, he is only 6. I'm going to be in bits come the day.

Sorry to hear that Slippy no age
mine was a mixture of arthritis/thyroid
so not put on weight and we think a touch of alzheimer's
the last 2 months,but was her time to go

and they wonder why the West is doomed...

One mouse in 18 years ...ffs that's tragic                                                                                                                                           stop feeding the sparrowhawk  junk food saddo ,a bet your garden is fat ball city 365 ,sparrows as round as tennis balls ,felix is an invasive species long past there sell by date  and should bè culled in the uk and banned asap ,bet the average normal  fit cat can  kill 100,s a night easy,although that mouse was probably a road casualty in hindsight wit ,sad stuff indeed  ,I agree with die linke ,we are fckn doomed .

ANIMALS KILL ANIMALS SHOCKER FFS IT WHAT THEY DO WHETHER THEY WERE PETS OR NOT

Die Linke- I don't wonder with posts like yours!
