Mickey, where do I start??
Tonight marks two years since I lost you. My heart is still broken over losing you. You were my very special kitty, and I loved you so much. I still love you just as much, and I still miss you, so much more than I ever thought possible. Your birthday just passed, on July 4th. You would have been 15 years old. I wish you were still here to have celebrated your special day. Just know that I have not forgotten you. I never will. You have a special part of my heart, and you will remain there always. A picture of you is on my wall. I kiss that picture every morning and every night. I look at your cute little face, and tell you I will always love you. I am so sorry that I couldn't save you Mickey. I would have done anything to still have you here with me. It was just not meant to be, and I am so truly sorry. I hope you are safe with my Mom and you are both keeping watch over me.
I Love You My Precious Mickey!!

You have definitely said it all, and so well! I am going on four years and still get a pang in my heart when I walk by her grave, she would have been 14 this July. There is nothing we can do to change the past, and we are both learning to live without those special little souls in our lives. Mickey will always be loved and cherished by you, will never be forgotten and held forever in a loving heart, that sweet cat will always have a bond with you that will never be taken from you. I hope your precious memories of happier times comfort you, your beautiful Mickey is at peace knowing someone loves and validates the love that you two shared. I hope you can feel some happiness knowing that special cat, and what love and happiness that was brought into that part of your life. Just to have shared that time was monumental.  I share your pain at the loss of something  so special, but so grateful to have known it at all, take care........

I'm so sorry @Loving Mickey  for the loss of your dear kitty, especially so soon after his birthday on July 4.  And for your mom too.  Time just fails to ease the pain of some that are so close to us, I understand.   I was this way about Garfy for many years and even now it pains me to think of his last day, but I do remember more of the good times now even though I still miss him.  For me it's the day he passed that's so hard and still is.  

Gosh, just when I thought I had no more tears here they come again!  And no you will never forget that dear soul Mickey and you did try your best to save him. Hugs to you!

I'm so sorry, it really is so hard. Sometimes time doesn't really heal the wounds, but rather just softens the edges a bit. That's pretty much how I feel with Lucky, will be 8 months come Tuesday. I pet his face on the photo blanket I had made every day. And it stays on my bed (albeit folded up, with his beautiful face up top) all the time.

:hugs: to you.

Thank -You so much for your kind words.
It is just so hard when we lose a special kitty like my Mickey and your Chrissy. I remember that you wrote about her before, and my heart truly breaks for you as well. What happened to your baby was a tragic accident, one that she would never blame you for. She loved you just as much as you loved her. No, we will never forget them, nor would we ever want to. My Mickey is buried in my front garden. He loved sitting in the window, looking out at the garden all the time. I have a cat statue with flowers in it on the exact spot he is buried. Other cute things are all around the small garden.
I think my Mickey would be pleased!

Thank-You for the kind words and the hugs. I sure needed them both. Hugs to you also. Sorry you are still hurting over the loss of your Garfy. Yes, it is so hard when we lose someone so special that we truly loved, human or animal.
Time doesn't always help, at least not with me. In fact, I miss both my Mom and Mickey more today than the actual day they left me. It is just so so hard, but I will go on. It is what they both would want for me. I know that!

You are so right, time doesn't always heal. It just helps you to move on and accept what has happened. It is the only thing we can do. It is what our kitties would want for us. They loved us as much as we loved them.
I am truly sorry about both Lucky and Sara. I cried along with you when you lost them. It is still very new for you. I just know how much you must be hurting. I am so sorry for that. No one should have to experience this kind of pain.
The blanket you have with Lucky's picture must be so beautiful. I am sure you treasure that blanket. I would love something like that, with Mickey's picture. I would put it on my bed, just like you have done.
Thanks so much for your kind response!

I want to truly thank everyone who responded to my post with their kind words of comfort. I so much appreciate it. You have all been so kind!
I have been feeling so sad about Mickey and just wanted to post, hoping it would make me feel somewhat better.
Your responses remind me that people care and hopefully my Mickey will be remembered by not only me, but all you kind people as well. For that, I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

it never truly goes away, does it? ive only ever bond with my heart and soul with two animals in my entire life. by that i mean, they arent just pets i care for, but companions that change your life for the better. my first dog Boxer passed away when i was 15, its been over 15 years since then. I think about him still, and sometimes when i see a dog that looks like him, or allow myself to think about him i just randomly start to cry. he was a very special dog, oddly enough, right before he died, everyone that knew him, randomly started having dreams of him dying. the next day, he had disappeared.

this was an ex police dog, so we trusted him to roam the neighborhood, he was very old. we all think he left to die, so we wouldnt have to see it happen.

No, I don't believe the pain ever truly goes away. We just learn to deal with it and go on. I had other cats before my Mickey, and I do miss them all. I loved them all like family and it is so painful when we lose them. Mickey was truly special and my heart. He took a huge piece of my heart with him when he left me. He helped me cope with the loss of my Mom. I hope they are together and watching over me. I need to believe that so I can go on.
Yes, you will always remember your Boxer. He will remain in your heart always. I believe each and everyone of our pets are special and we will never forget any of them. But, then there is always that one SPECIAL one like my Mickey and your Boxer.

I sure understand how the pain never goes away, but the love also remains. Mickey is keeping an eye on you while he waits in a perfect condition in a perfect place.

goholistic goholistic Yes, Mickey was so very special to me. I will mourn his loss forever. There are still days that I can't believe he is really gone, and it is two years now. The pain never leaves us, does it??

They are all special to us, but some leave a bigger hole in our lives than others. I'm sorry you lost your Mickey and I'm sorry you still miss him so very much. I miss all of mine who have passed, but there is 2 in particular who stole my heart in a whole other way and the pain of losing them seems...........a little bigger.
