...it pours. My little boy is gone. Helo died yesterday morning.

He seemed like he was coming around Tuesday evening, but yesterday morning Danny went looking for him and found him in the basement looking terrible.

I wrapped him in a blanket and we rushed off to the 24 hour Animal Hospital. When we got there they asked if I wanted them to resuscitate him. I said yes and they ran off with him and put us in a room to wait.

The doctor finally came in and said she was sorry, but they couldn't save him. Apparently he had a congenital heart defect which is why he had been so tired and all. She said it happens in a matter of days... one day you've got a healthy kitten and the next... they're gone.

Danny and I sobbed and cried. They brought him in and I sat on the floor just rocking with him in my arms... crying and crying. His ashes will be ready tomorrow. Danny and I spent the entire day sobbing and holding each other off and on. We'd have moments where we'd be okay, then it would hit us again in waves.

I woke up this morning and we both started to cry again, realizing it, unfortunately, wasn't a dream. He said he figured I wouldn't be doing too well when I woke up, so he stayed here with me until about 10:30.

My spirit is broken and battered. All I've ever wanted was life... and all I'm being given lately is death. Everywhere I turn. I just don't know why I'm getting nothing but pain right now.

Happy Birthday week to me.

Nikki I'm so sorry! I know exactly how you feel, I had to put my cat down in May and when I took her to the vet she actually died in my arms and my reaction sounded much the same as yours! They really are part of the family and become a part of you! I got Frisky ashes in a box and a little bit in a necklace which hangs in my room so I never lose it. I put her box with her food dish in her favourite spot on the counter by the kitchen window where the sun shines in. And you know what? I still talk to her and when I'm having a down day it's her I wish I could talk to because she never thought I was crazy or judged me!

Anyway, if you need someone to listen to you, PM me anytime, my heart goes out to you!!!


PS - I'm bawling as I write this, I wish I could take away your sadness

Oh Nikki, I am so sorry!!!!! I know thats heart breaking!!!! Pets become so much like family, but remember all the good times you had with your kittie. I know you took VERY good care of your little guy...probably spoilt him...a lot, as I do our dog. I know he lived a very good and full life. He was lucky to have a mommy like you!!!! Awww, if i were there I would give you the BIGGEST hug!!!!!

Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, Nikki. I know exactly how you feel, I lost my mom and my dog of 15 years 2 months apart. I was asking the same questions like you are right now. But we'll never know the answers. Be there for each other and help each other through this. (((HUGS)))

Thanks for everything guys... It's much harder because he was only 5 months old, ya know?

Hera (our 4 year old kitty) has been great. I think she knows how sad I am... she actually curled up on the sofa next to me (UNHEARD OF for her) and slept for about 2 hours. As soon as she woke up and saw I was walking around, she's been my shadow.

Ohh no. I'm so sorry to hear this. Huge hugs to you. Pets definitely become members of our families and it is incredibly sad to lose one.
