It's been a while since I've been to these boards, but it's the only place I know where some will understand the pain I'm going through.
My wonderful precious cat, Achilles was hit by a car and died today, and I'm so lost right now that I don't know what to do with myself.
We got him only two years ago, him and his brother Sirius. Sirius is pitch black whereas Achilles was a beautiful orange tabby.
I've never met a cat like Achilles, he was the sweetest and kindest creature. Every night he'd sleep right next to me, purring and rubbing his little nose against my face. He's never harmed anyone, never scratched never hissed, I think he was inside his big heart a little naive. If he'd see a dog, he'd just walk right over to it like it was nothing to be scared of, and if we had visitors he'd jump on their lap like he just knew he was welcome everywhere.
Last night he didn't come home before bed time and I was really worried because he was always sleeping in a bed next to a human, unlike his brother who'd some time be gone all night hunting. Achilles never came home with a pray, I just don't think he was much of a hunter. He was always more a cudler.
Then when he didn't come home this morning, my dad went to look for him and half an hour later he came home with a black plastic bag where Achilles was lying dead inside. Hit by a car.
We've burried him in the garden underneath a tree and I've planted a flower on his grave. The flower is called "burning love" which I think is fitting because I loved Achilles more than anything in this world.
I know it sounds crazy, but I think maybe he was too good for this world, he never thought anything could or would harm him.
I don't know how to cope with this, I'm crying all the time, and I keep turning my head, hoping to see his little orange fur come through the door one my time.
R.I.P my sweet precious angel, you only got to live for two years, but at least I know you lived happily. I'll miss you so terribly.
