When I was 11 years old I got to get a kitten. My Aunt Jerry had a litter and I was allowed to pick one. I picked my baby Purrty. He was a black and whit little furry friend. I spent years of my life playing with him, him sleeping on my head, waking up to the sound of him trying to eat plastic. 3 weeks ago I had him put to sleep. He was suffering from pancreatitis and liver disease. He was 8 lbs, but showed no other signs besides weight loss. Then he just couldn't do it anymore I guess. He was in my life more than he was out. I miss him everyday. I almost can't bare life without him. He was my baby.

I am so sorry that sad day has come for you. Purrty was so beautiful.  Lovely eyes.

Eighteen years old!  That shows what good care he received to reach such an age.  They all leave those paw prints on our hearts.  I hope soon you can manage a smile when remembering him sleeping with you and being there all those years.

If Purrty could have spoken, he would have said to "remember me like this".

God Bless Purrty and you.  He really does live on in your heart.

My condolences. Eighteen years is a long life for a cat, but that doesn't make their passing hurt any less. RIP, Purrty with the little heart shape on your nose.

 Purrty was a beautiful kitty, I love his little black nose. It's so hard when they let us know "it's time". I know you miss him so much, but you did the right thing. Take comfort in the fact that he is healthy and whole and playing waiting until you see him again. Believe me, he's got plenty of new friends at RB. 18 yrs shows how much love and care he got. RIP Purrty

Thank you everyone for your kind and wonderful words! It's hard every day, but I am getting through it. I still have 4 other furbabies to take care of.
