guzzicat Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Sorry for your loss, why are black & white cats more "personable )than any other colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaymo Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Poor Tinks it takes all sorts, some are purely Dog lovers, some Cat and other both- but what ever your preference, at the end of the day it’s ‘your little mate’ She sounds however, that she had a great life and that should be comfort to you. My ‘ratty catty’ will be 18 in a few months and as much as I say to my wife that ‘ I won’t miss her’ , I know that we sure will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I'm amazed a cat can live that long, doesn't matter if its a dog cat rabbit or budgie its always bad when a pet goes. sorry fella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Sorry for your loss; I am both a cat and dog person - and have myself lost 2 dogs and 4 cats through the last many years, plus many others in close family. Its always a hard thing, but living to 22 is an achievement, and I'll bet it was a good life as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always got on best with orange ones. I did a stint on the Isle of Man and the 'stubbins' as they call them were all remarkably pleasant.

das Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 A dog rather than a cat lover, but like you, I know what grief is to lose a beloved pet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) I've always had tropical fish for years, when they end up floating you just flush them down the loo. No heart ache there, then we go and buy a blooming dog. You know it's coming, but then it's the living and giving that's the good bits, and the memory that you cherish that make them all worth while.

team tractor Posted February 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I think some of the problem is she out lived my sister . It’s horrible. 20 years this month my sister passed away. Mums took it hard as it’s all built up. she was an awesome cat had an awesome life and it’s something we can’t stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Galore! Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 sorry to hear this, funny how some of us spend most of our time swearing about our cats, but we miss them terribly when they're gone. I still miss my old cat "fleabag". when she was preggers and about to drop, she kept coming up to me and patting my leg with her paw then going to her bed, 3 times she did this before I sussed she wanted me to be the midwife, mopped her brow and helped with her kittens, I don't think she ever forgot and always made a beeline for my lap, even waiting at the front of the drive for me to come home from work. daft old apeth she was and not a spiteful bone in her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12gauge82 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Very sorry to hear this, losing a pet is one of the worst things in life, they're part of the family and I've been devastated every time I've lost one, it is unfortunately an inevitable part of life.
