I know Jack wasn't a cat, but we just had to make the choice to put him down today. Two days short of his birthday, and within the same month as our CiCi's passing. I feel like I've kind of been hit by a truck right now, because both of them were such huge presences within our home and now they are both gone and I'm just having a hard time.
CiCi's passing felt traumatic to me. Those four days of no eating and sleeping while I stressed over her in the air ducts felt like torture. Even after she passed, I felt like it was my fault, or that I should have tried and pushed more to help her. With Jack, I knew it was coming. But I didn't expect it to be today. He had a seizure and collapsed. Then another one this morning. I looked and him and I just knew in my gut that it was time to put him down.
But it's just mind boggling. These two animals I've had forever, this cat and this dog, they're both gone and I feel heartbroken.
I told my mother, I think Jack really just wanted to go check on CiCi. He loved kittens and he loved her.
Sorry, I know this post is partially about a dog. I just didn't know where else to talk about this. It's such a weird feeling having both of them just not here.
