We put our cat to sleep

[Glaisne]

We had to put our cat, Sharkie, to sleep on Monday (6/19/23). He had mouth cancer and was 15+ years old. We was our light and joy. He was with was for over 10 years. We love him so much. It is still very raw for us. We miss our special kitty. I wanted people to know he existed.

1. Aw, what a handsome guy.

Sharkie sounds like a lovely cat.

4. Mouth cancer is common among cats.

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.

7. Love tuxedo cats!

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.

9. RIP, Sharkie...

We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached.

Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way.

We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan.

10. I'm so sorry for your loss. Our fur babies teach us how to love.

11. Some day you'll think of him and it will bring joy instead of pain for having

known and loved him.

[CousinIT]

12. I'm so sorry!

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

13. Thanks for Sharing Sharkie with us!

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 ❤!

The link above is a tender cartoon about a cat.
I found it comforting when we put our cat asleep last month at 16 years old.

If anyone can post the cartoon image, please do so. Thanks.

21. so very sorry Glaisne

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...

28. I am so sorry for your loss,

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.

[Glaisne]

31. Sorry to hear of the loss of Meanie cat

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

[peacebuzzard]

34. Yes. she was an angel who came to visit.

[japple]

29. So sorry for your loss. Bless you for giving Sharkie such a great life. Tuxies

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

[Glaisne]

30. Thank you.

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