It's hard having to give up a loved one, and I know what it is like to have a burning sensation in your heart. A deep hole that can never be filled. A situation like this happened to me,too. You see, I work at a wildlife preserve, and one of the wolves there died some time ago. She was one of my best friends. I loved her so much. It hurt so bad when I lost her, but,in the end, I realized that I just had to move on. I also realized that my friends were there to help me through my pain. And then a new wolf came to the preserve. And then I also realized that he needed as much love as the other wold did. So,(pardon my long story)basically what I'm saying is that the only thing you can do, is move on and try to live your life. It never stops hurting, but you just have to be strong.

Aww. Dont feel dumb! Everyone always becomes attached to their pets, especially if you've had them for so long. Sorry to hear about your cat. Maybe buy yourself a new cat or kitten, thats what i do when my animals die because they got old.. buy a new one. It always makes me happier. Be sure to keep pictures of your cat so your can remember it :) I hope you feel better.

i am going through the same thing my cat had kidney failure and she died in the vet i loved her and now i feel like i have lost a best friend. I had her for 5 years from the cats protection and she had a bad past her previous owners kicked her and things but i know she had a nice life with me.The best advice i can give you is not to think about it and try to read or work or listen to music it helps. My cat was on my bed every night and she loved only me so i know how you feel.my bed is lonely now
Hope i helped you xxx

Try to think of other thoughts and if that doesnt work then IM me on aol julia

Same exact thing happened to me! I had a hard time getting over it, but after a while a forgot. I still remember him but I don't cry. You may think your pain will last forver but really, it won't. We bought a dog to fill up the empty space in our house. Maybe that's what you need to do.

First, why did it get put to sleep just because it is blind? Was there other complications?
Anyway, it's always hard to lose a family member like that...you've known this cat your whole life and it's natural to go through the grieving process. There really is no way to make it "go away", you could focus on the fact that he is more comfortable now or make a collage of photographs to remember him by.

Ignore what that person said about your dumbness your not at all!!!! Its ok to be sad just avoid thinking of him. In time you'll get over him dont worry you'll be fine.

losing a cat thats been with you basically ever since youve been born and then it dies is like having a parent die. All i can say is that you'll never really forget them but sometime your just going to have to except that he's gone. My dads mom passed away when he was about 19.. and he was sad and probably depressed for a long time but then you just sorta need to move on. But you can always keep thinking about your cat.
Hope i helped! <3

Dont worry about sounding dumb! I was sad when my hamster died because I had it since she was born. The easiest way to get over your cat is just know that that was the best thing for him. It had its time to die and its better it didnt have to go through all that pain. Its going to be in a better place and I know its hard for you but understand that everyone and everything has its time! Im really sorry tho. Try getting a new kitty and you will love it as much also! ♥

I've never experienced the loss of a pet, but some animal shelters have pet loss support groups you can attend (try checking your local Animal Care and Control or SPCA) and there are plenty of e-groups that can help you cope as well.
I'm sorry for the loss of your cat.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, sweetie. I know how it feels to lose a best friend. My boxer, Rizzo, was put down when I was eight. She was my best friend. I know how you feel. It's like, and empty space inside you. It hurts, and I know that. A pet is a wonderful thing. Just remember the times you had with your cat. He/she had a good life to have such a loving best friend, like you. (and you don't sound dumb either) Maybe you could take a box. Put in pictures of your cat, or maybe some hair from his/her brush. You could also put it his/her leash or collar. You could decorate the box to look pretty. Then, when you miss him/her, look at the stuff inside the box. And remember it's ok to feel sad about this. There isn't a way to make the pain go away. You will be sad for a while, and everyone will understand. You could talk toy uor cat. She'll hear you. I think when you are talking, when the wind blows that's an answer. Your cat is alive in your heart and memory. He/she will always be with you. You did the right thing by putting your cat in a better place. And she'll always remember you. Remember that. And think positive. Good luck, and I am sorry, again.
With Sympathy,
Morgan
