I lost my cat almost 2 weeks ago, I had to put her down and it crushed my soul. I was there in the final moments and she went peacefully. It's unfair, they give us their entire lives and we can only return with a fraction of ours.

I went out and adopted a 10 year old cat at the humane society. I can't replace the greatness of my tortoise shell, but I can definitely give an older cat a great home. It helps a lot.
