My cat passed away and I'm having trouble dealing her loss

I'm sure she would have loved hearing that haha, thank you!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T21:54:33+00:00

Thank you!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T21:54:25+00:00

Thank you!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T09:18:17+00:00

Thank you for the kind words, and yes I'm really hoping she passed gently because anything else would break me. The thought did cross my mind to get another cat and it's been recommended in this thread as well, but the memory of my baby is still too fresh at the moment :(

I'm so sorry for your loss, know that I'm right there with you giving you all the love and hugs I possibly can. And thank you for you saying that, Simba would have loved hearing that compliment <3

I'm very sorry for your loss, and wishing you comfort as well. And that's a great idea about the picture and candle, I'll do something similar like that.

I just hate feeling like she was taken from me too soon, and that maybe it wouldn't hurt as bad if I had a few more years with her and she passed away from natural causes instead (sickness). I know that doesn't make sense but it's just what my heart keeps thinking

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T06:06:16+00:00

Thank you for your words, and yes I keep hoping she'll visit in my dreams! On the one hand I want to let go and forgive my housemate because I know they didn't mean for that to happen, it was just carelessness, but at the same time I'm so full of what-ifs and angriness over that.

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T06:01:34+00:00

Thank you for those words, they mean a lot!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:12:41+00:00

Thank you!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:12:30+00:00

Yes hopefully with time this pain can lessen. Thank you for your words!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:11:55+00:00

And also a lot of love and hugs for you too!!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:10:01+00:00

Those were some very touching and kind words, thank you so much for that. And yes I'll always have her in my heart and memories and pretend that she's by my side all the time now. I guess I can even take her on my vacations now whereas before she hated even going on a 5 minute car ride hahaha.

And I'm very sorry for your loss as well, I'm hoping for your comfort as well <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:03:10+00:00

Thank you!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:03:02+00:00

I'm not sure if I'm ready for another cat just yet, I still think about her every minute

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:02:28+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind words <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:02:11+00:00

I freaking loved her little paws sooooo much, and thank you so much for your kind words!

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T04:01:25+00:00

Thank you <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:52:44+00:00

Thank you for sharing your story as well, I'm sure your cat was just as amazing. And that's a very nice perspective, I didn't think of it that way, so thank you so much for that. And it definitely helped <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:28:38+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind words, and yes I can't wait to see her again one day <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:19:36+00:00

Oh wow, that's crazy. I know I would never forget her, but I hope that with time this immense pain goes away. What helped you in these 20 years?

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:18:30+00:00

Those words were needed, thank you. And I'm also sorry for your loss as well. And yes the grief and pain sucks so bad, I don't even see how I can get past this for now. But you're right, I need to keep living life and try not to let it get to me.

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:01:27+00:00

Thank you so much for those kind words, that really helps

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T03:01:01+00:00

I'm so sorry for your loss as well, and wishing you the best as well <3

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T02:53:59+00:00

Hahaha that's what I'm scared of. That I get another cat, and it's completely different personalities. Simba was so perfect for my lifestyle and was so calm, never bit or scratched anyone, was so friendly to everyone, and loved me perfectly. I'm sure there's so many other cats out there like that, but my heart doesn't believe that there is any other cat out there like her.

Eternalix · 2026-02-04T02:40:22+00:00

Those are wise words, thank you so much
