Hard Saying Goodbye

We have lost another kitty. The female black and white cat my daughter adopted after tenants just left her behind. She was a sweet petite little kitty that we loved for the ten or so years she lived with us. My grandson is very upset. He had gotten very attached to her over the last couple years. She would come and set with him on the couch while he watched YouTube. We hate to see him so sad.

One reason I am afraid to have pets. Once you get attached, you are in for heartache. As long as they belong to others, it is not deeper connection, so the pain in store is not much. But I will, hopefully, someday have a dog.

It's a part of life. Just like losing a human family member.

@celticeagle it is in some ways a reason we get children pets. Losing a pet is supposed to help prepare us for the hopefully later time when family and friends leave us, but sadly the process of grief never gets easier.

Will you be getting a new cat? I'm sorry you lost her. Pets are members of our families and it's hard when they pass.
