Today I remembered something else very endearing about Milo. He loved french fries! (Back when he could eat more easily.) And he was once spotted dragging an entire pancake off to who knows where. Sweet funny kitty.

Oh Char, that is beautiful and so true. I have not heard that before. Thank you. Love you! My love to John and the whole family.

My heart hurts for you. John and I know the pain you are experiencing, it never goes away totally, but it will get better. There is a quote I will share – “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened”. This was the feeling of Anatole France, she had an incomparable bond with her beloved cat, Joey.

Oh Mark, now you’ve got me crying too (again). Jack sounds like a lovely little guy and I’m glad you had that week with him, and he with you. He was a lucky kitty in the end.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am doing better! It helps enormously to hear from people who care. I am coming through this experience feeling deeply fortunate.

I found some fun decorations and I will bring them in tomorrow. And some candy! Yay for Valentine’s Day!

OK, so now I’m sad….I came across a cat in an alley when I lived in Fremont. He had obviously been abandoned and was missing an eye. So of couse I adopted him on the spot and names him Jack (as in 1 eyed Jack)…He was the sweetest kitty all he wanted to do from the moment I found him was to sit in my lap and purr really loudly. I had him for about a week when he got sick and I took him to the vet who determined that his kidneys were failing rapidly and he was in a lot of pain. So I did it and it killed me. I will never forget this cat and how I felt about putting him down. The only think that brought me peace was knowing how much that week together meant to the both of us. I gave him a wonderful life as best I could and a painless death. I hope you realize the same thing. You gave him a wonderful life full of love and companionship and in the end you gave him a peaceful and painless way to leave this world. I am sitting at my desk now crying….Please let the guilt go (it does no good, it will not change things, it will only break your heart) and hold onto the love and companionship that you shared with this amazing creature…he is at peace and you should be as well…..

Thank you, Lisa. You are so kind! My dad was always in charge of that sad duty as well.

The last few days have been better. I think it helped a lot to get that all written down.

Big hugs to you too.

I understand why you feel guilty, but you did the kind thing. He may have had more life to enjoy, and he may have had a lot more pain to endure. I’m so sorry. It is terribly hard to say goodbye to anyone we love. And it’s brutal having that power. My dad took Gloria when it got to that point. I couldn’t do it. Big hugs to you.

[…] Shortly after we moved to our house in a nearby neighborhood, Gibby died of a sudden and acute case of we know not what. That was over 10 years ago, and ever since then, Milo has been an only cat. He made the adjustment admirably — instead of following Gibby around, he would follow me or Moses around. He took to sleeping on a pillow between our two pillows. He made friends — kind of — with the neighbor cats. He ate, played, slept, and purred, he did his business outside bless his heart, and just generally was right up there with the best cats ever. […]
