Hello everyone and good morning.

I have posted on this wonderful website before but I have been so busy lately doing other things. I just wanted to vent and cry a few tears. So here is my story...

I had my Swishy for about 18 years and he passed away on September 11th 2005 from a bladder condition. It failed on him and his heart started to give way. He was also very skinny. I cried so much because I was convinced there might have been something I could do for him. But the most that happened was my Mom brought him to the Vet a few times to get some pain killers to soothe the pain while he was nearing his end. I regret not seeing him as offten as I used to when I was living at home with my Mom and Brother. He was the best cat ever to me. Everyday I am reminded of him in some sort of way. Things I see and hear, thoughts and memories... I miss him dearly and life will never be the same without him. Because he was mine, the one cat I cared for the most. He will never be forgotten, only loved more and more each tearful day. I will try and post a picture when I can, but right now I need to post this so I can try and get it off my mind for a while. I have suffered pet loss before, but it never felt this bad. He was my baby boy, and he will always remain that way in my heart.

I love you Swishy, and I will be waiting for the day I can hear your sweet meow, and see your cute face. Everything about you was special, and I promise to never let go of the wonderful memories I collected throughout the years.

9-11-2005 Lost, but never forgotten.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to lose the one cat who was your soulmate because that happened to me in July. Take comfort in the memories of him.
He was a blessed cat to have had 18 years of being loved and taken care of.
Rest in peace Swishy. You are missed.

Condolences on the loss of Swishy, your soulmate kitty. I think it will help you with the healing process to post Swishy's passing here, because many people at TCS really understand how you feel. This doesn't mean the pain is gone, just that you can start to heal.

Please let us know a happy memory with Swishy, and post a picture when you can.
