Wow, it's been almost a month. My cat, Gezebel, passed away September 11th. I don't know it's been weird... like trying not to acknowledge that it happened. But today I reverted back into habit and went to feed her only to remember that she won't be there.
She had started having a hard time eating but it was just finding a wet food that she liked. She remained healthy till the end. My vet finally acknowledged that she was probably the healthiest geriatric cat he had seen in a long time. She died peacefully in her sleep.
I miss her. A lot.
I know she had a good and LONG life (rough estimates by my husband and myself was between 16 and 19 years) but it's hard... We lost a member of the family.
How did those of you who lost pet children get through it. People keep telling me just to get over it but I can't. They just don't get it! Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Between my father-in-law's illness and complications and this, I feel like I'm starting to lose it a bit...
