Why does it have to hurt so much?

Im so sorry too Laura... Tears falling for your loss

[~Laura and Nick~ 5]

Thank you everyone for your love.

This will get easier.

I just can't stop crying, knowing I won't see his face again when I visit home.

What a good boy he was.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear about Sam. Sounds very similar to what happened to my Elvis. I couldn't bare to have him in pain so I had to make the same very difficult decision. Its amazing how attached we can get to our pets, they are members of the family. I am sure Sam is at Rainbow Bridge, painfree and looking down on you. I'm sending you a hug..take care.

Ah Laura, I am so sorry. I know how hard it is to lose our fur-children and how difficult it is for you not to have been there. At least Sam is out of pain now.

I'm so sorry Laura! I know exactly how you feel. I had to put my kitty down in sept of 07 and it still hurts so much. She was only 4 years old. Losing a cat is so hard. I'm so so sorry for your loss!

I can relate to this a lot. I'm sorry you lost your boy.

I still miss my cat and he crossed the rainbow bridge nearly 8 years ago.

Sniff...

Soo sorry to hear about your loss, Laura

My Romy was also 8 when he got sick. He also was a big fella, 18 lbs! I should have known he was sick when he started to lose weight. Soon after he became more and more lethargic. When I took him to the vet, I had no idea his kidney had failed and he was already very close to the end. That was probably the day I cried the hardest ever. I had no idea that when I left my house with him in the morning he wouldn't be coming back. I'm also sorry you weren't there for his last moments.

I'm sorry for your loss....I have a cat too, and they really are a part of the family.

I have avoided this thread all day, not because I don't care, I just don't know what to say.

I am sorry for your loss Laura. Its hard to lose any family member.

Last night at around midnight, my parents back in Canada had to put down my Sam.

He has a urinary tract infection and had been very lethargic, not eating or drinking for the past two days. He was down in my old room, laying on the floor where my bed was....

They took him in at around 7pm, stayed for 2 hours and were asked to leave him there for testing, got a call around midnight saying that he couldn't urinate so they would have had to put a catheter in, he was in pain, etc. etc. with a very expensive surgery to follow.....he was suffering.

My parents are heartbroken and they gave me the call this morning.

I'm just writing this cause I feel so.......heart broken....I didn't get to say bye, he was all alone and he was my boy. I love him so so much.

So here's to my sammy bo....you were the best cat.

I'll miss your sweet face, the lazy summer days on the back deck and your kisses....always your kisses. RIP.

You lost your cat on the 1 year anniversary of me losing my dear dog Niki.....I sincerely feel your pain. They are trully life long friends.........

So sorry to hear of your loss...

I gave my cats to my son when I knew I'd be moving...I really miss them. I need to find a home for my dog too...It's really for the best, but I'm sure going to miss all of them.

(((((((((((Laura))))))))))))))) I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I know your heart is breaking right now.

(((((((((((((((charles))))))))))) I am so sorry to hear about your loss as well. I've never seen you write a longer post, nor such a heartfelt one.

Thinking of you both at this time.
