When does the pain go away?Its been 2 weeks and Mr precious was only 3 years old and was healthy.He was named Preciuos till I took him to the vet as a kitten and they said Precious is a male so he became Mr Precious. One morning he wasnt breathing right and wouldnt eat. After going to 4 vets and putting in intensive care they told me after $2000 bill it would be $8000-$10,000 ore with less than a 50/50 chance. i dont know what he had. Maybe a blck widow spider bite I dont know.I had to hold him for 30 minutes and just as he was born with me, he left earth as i petted him. I have (&) 8 x10s of him up in the house and he buried close by. I talk to his grave every day. I miss him so much Its not fair.I sure hope I uploaded picture here right. Being alone is not good. I cant see his picture when I click on it. I hope everybody else can. it means a lot to me.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
The pain will subside with time. Take all the time you need and allow yourself to grieve. Maybe when you're ready you can adopt another cat and it will help fill the emptiness.

RIP Mr. Precious

What a handsome fella he was!

I think grief just takes the time it takes, and all we can do is get through it one foot after the other. Someone told me once, Grief is the price of love, and I guess it's true. Probably the more deeply we love something, the longer the grief. It certainly sucks, though.

I just lost my cat last night and I can't even imagine a day that will ever feel normal again. It's a very hard thing, isn't it?

It wouldn't allow me to access the picture, but I know how you feel about it being too painful to look at your baby's photo. My precious Snoopy will have been gone 2 years this coming February, and I am just finally able to look at his pictures, but not without pain.

it never completely goes away, but it does get easier to bear.
so sorry for your loss - he was too young to leave you!

thank you all so much for Lots of kind words and they sure help. I just feel I barely had time to grow up with him. His mother abandoned me and moved 3 doors down. The people are moving and they dont want mommycat.She comes here often for food and leaves and hates to come in the house. Its so wierd as she had 2 litters in the house. Shes the opposite of Mr precious but they did look alike and I have a great photo hanging of the 2 cuddled up together.Shes not as good to me as she should be but she is a great mother or was. i got her fixed after the 2nd litter

I am so sorry for your loss, I, too, just lost my baby Black on Monday, and the pain is still so severe, as I have heard, it does get easier w/time. I am just waiting for that moment. Bless you. You are in my thoughts and prayers!! RIP Mr. Precious!! \t

Dear Thurstee, I am so sorry that you are going through this grief. I lost my best friend, Lyndsey, after 16 years 3 days ago. When he was little I took him to the vet and they told me he was a he not a she. But we called him Lyndsey anyways because that's what he knew. The pain is so severe. Being here with others helps. I took out some picture frames but haven't yet been able to put up pictures of him. Just take it one day at a time, or even one minute at a time.
