Hello Biscuit,
I am very sorry for your loss! I remember you supported me when my Lili died last week and i wrote here... You were worried about your kitty Marmite and I wished her to be OK....
You did your best, be sure. You stayed with her, tried to help her, but someone or something decided that it's her time to go.... It's cruel, I know. You are now asking thousand questions maybe, why Marmite, why not other cat that nobody would miss her or a cat that is unhappy...?
When my Lili died, I didn't eat for 3 days and I woke up every morning at 2am, crying. I was devastated and i didn't want to live. Seriously, I thought that her death happened on purpose, against me. She was one of the most precious beings i had...
It helped me to write it down, to write the whole story several times, how everything happened. I even wrote a 3 page story of Lili, from the moment we brought her to our apartment, her first moments, how she was different from her sister, about her kidney problems, about her babies, everything about her.
I created a photo book (an album) of all pictures of Lili. It will remind you all the beautiful moments you had with your kitty. I plan to bury her ashes in the forest close to our apparent. I will join a photo of 4 of us: my husband, Lumi (her son), Mina (her sister) and me and i will write a short text on the other side. To keep us with her.
This is my way of dealing with the pain, everyone is different. Just take as much time as you need. Don't worry about other people's comments or remarks, saying that it was just a cat, they can't understand. My father told me last week, that other worse things can happen and yesterday he called me asking if I forgot already...????
It doesn't hurt so much as it did last week, but we still miss her. Last night i dreamt about her, that we went to the hospital and she was alive... and then i woke up and cry....
Marmite knew that you loved her. She will now rest peacefully.
Love to you and your familly.
