I just want to complain about those people out there who tell me things like, "why don't you just get another cat", "you have allergies, why don't you get rid of your cat" and "well, you had him for 16 years and that's a long time". Just this morning, someone I consider a work friend told me I...

Friday was the month anniversary of Lyndsey's death. I was driving down my street in the morning and I noticed a cat by the side of the road. He looked so pitiful and close to the street that I stopped. He came right over and kept meowing. I went back home and got some food and water. He...

I have decided to go to a grief support group for people who have lost their pet. I wondered if anyone else has done this and if you have any feed back? I just need all the support I can get. Yesterday it kind of hit me that Lyndsey really wasn't coming back, that this wasn't just a temporary...

2 days ago I lost my 16 1/2 year old cat, Lyndsey. He had been on heart medicine since May 2007 and I just felt so good about how he had been doing. But then last Saturday he threw up and his breathing was labored. He had maybe 1 or 2 days last week that were good and the doctor increased his...
