Rest in Peace, Little Guy

He died.

No, I am not okay. Not even close.

I just took these the other night.

Go with Claudie, little Catsby. You never had a chance. I didn't know you long but I loved you deeply. This is so much fucking harder than it should be after only a week. I can't help but wonder if I could have done anymore to save him. I tried, I tried so fucking hard. You didn't have much in this life but you loved my lap. I'm so sorry I failed you.

I miss my kitten.

1. *hugs* I’m so sorry, Kittyn.

4. So sorry to hear it kittyn, maybe theres some solace in knowing he had a better life in those days with you, than those before.

5. I’m so sorry to hear about Catsby.  I agree with Tree, the little guy had the best part of his short life with you, loved and cared for.  You did all you could and more than some would. His short time with you was special for you both, love flows both ways.

   You didn’t fail him, love is never failure.  Catsby will always be part of you, just like Claude and the others that come and go in our lives.

   Some day, maybe soon, there’ll be another little one that needs a mommy like you. Don’t despair, Catsby is in pain no more. And I’m sure where ever he is, he’s thinking of you and the love you gave him.

6. I don’t even know what to say...other than I’m sorry.

   Just know that you did the best by him that you could have.

   Much love from me and Rich.

7. I’m so sorry, Kittyn. You know how I feel and you know that I’m here for you. Remember what I said in my email about FKS. It is NOT your fault, despite what your head keeps telling you. Ignore your head and listen to your heart… it beats with the love that you and Catsby shared, for always.

   I have never forgotten a cat that I’ve rescued (either at home or in post-Katrina New Orleans) and knowing that my memories keep them “alive” is what keeps me sane. Remember that even though he has crossed Rainbow Bridge, he experienced your love before going.. and knowing love for that full, wonderful week he had with you is much better than any other fate I could have imagined for him.

   *hugs*

8. I’m crying in my office :(

   I’m really really sorry WK, and I know you’re heartbroken and sad, but you remember that even though TGC was very very young, he left this world knowing he was loved and wanted.

   I’m sorry :(

10. You are the best catmommy ever. Don’t despair; maybe Catsby had to go and play with all the new-baby souls to keep them entertained while they’re waiting to come down here and be born. You did a fine job of loving him and taking care of him, and we’re all thinking of you.

11. so sorry to hear of this.  I am certain, Catsby knew he was loved.
    and I also am sure there was nothing YOU could have done. God wanted a
    playmate for Claude. and whatever time he had with you was simply to
    get him ready to meet up with Claude so they could both share how much
    they loved you! and have something in common!.. you can take some comfort
    in knowing what time he spent with YOU was FAR better than whatever
    his remaining days might have been without you! who is to say how much time
    time he would have had if not for you! you may have in fact EXTENDED his life
    by days or weeks, maybe he held on a bit longer BECAUSE of your love.
    I have had many feline friends over the years. I have lost some after years andother
    after a much shorter time… they are all special to me. in different ways
    and when you are ready there is no shortage of Angels waiting for you to to
    love. dont mourn too long. theres another waiting right NOW who needs you
    as much if not more than Catsby did..

12. I’m so very sorry this happened. I hope he’s in a better place, frolicking and playing. :(

14. That is so sad.  He was a lucky guy to have a momma like you.  I just lost my HyperDog in May and I totally feel for you!

15. I cry with you.
