I lost my best friend last night. He gave me more love, comfort and joy that most of the people who have come and gone in my life. I have no words to describe the way I feel right now. He was so, so much more than "just a cat". I will have his ashes later this week in an urn, and when it's my time to join him, his ashes will go into the earth with me. I'm just so empty right now. Just going through the motions. I have no zest for life whatsoever at the moment. He was my baby. This pain is excruciating.
