i have to take my 19 y/o cat and have her put to sleep. she has been such a great pet and she's the first one i ever owned. i'm so bummed out it's killing me. it's a shame but i swear i love that cat more then some family members!!!!

That sucks. i have a cat thats the same age and she seems like shes on her way out. I feel for you.

[Knipps]

I hear you man, I'd pick my dog over one of my half brothers. I can't imagine what its going to be like when she really gets up there in age. :(

sorry to hear that :(

We had to put our dog down back in March, it sucks. But we have a great back yard and it was too quiet in the house so we got another dog from a rescue. You can't replace a pet, but I think it's worth it to get another since they can be so entertaining. Pets help reduce stress as well.

Hey sorry to here man :(

[baddest434]

i'm a grown man crying

Sorry to hear that man, I've had my kitten for 4 months and I'd be crushed if I had to do that. I know it'll eventually happen(hopefully many many years down the road).

Keep your head up man, 19yrs is pretty damn old. What's wrong with her?

[Featherburner]

Sorry, Bill.

[baddest434]

well my best friend is gone now! thanks for the kind words people. the poor thing had dwindled down to 3 1/2 lbs. this was such a hard thing to do but i know shes better off now. she had stopped going to the bathroom (#2) was nothing but skin and bones and could hardly stand.
we still have another cat thats healthy but she's 13 y/o and when her time comes thats it with pets for me. this crap hurts to much.
thanks again all:sad:

RIP GIZMO:angel:

Dude, that's the name of my cat. :(

Keep your head up man.

=( Sorry about your kitty..

You should go to the Humane Society and adopt one when you are ready, there's so many winners in there that need a home

I am really sorry to hear about your loss, I've been there many times. No other cat/s will replace the one you lost, but time heals wounds. I have 3 little guys looking for homes ( 2 long hair/ 1 short hair all grey calico all males). We rescued the mother and her 5 kittens ( I added 2 more to my growing collection) so I am looking for good homes for the 3 that are left.

Baddest, it's obvious you provide a good home and are an animal lover so if you'd like to pass some of that love on to a new generation, PM me and I'll meet you ( or anyone for that matter).

Again, sorry for your loss, but she isn't in pain any more.

Awww Bill, I'm so sorry you lost your buddy. I so know what you mean about loving a pet more than some family. I'd trade half my family for a nice cat or dog! I just lost my 15 yo siamese and my other cat, a 13 year old siamese, is going down hill too. :cry: Sad stuff losing a pet. Eventually thoughts of Gizmo will bring smiles but now's the time to cry. It's amazing how much love a pet can bring.

Hugs to ya Bill!

RIP GIZMO

sorry to hear that

Sorry to hear :(. My mom had to put one of our cats down just about a month ago. Same thing had happened, she dwindled down to only about 5 lbs. It's so sad to lose a friend, but as hard as it is, the love they give you cannot be outweighed by the sadness. I know I will always have cats, my two currently are a couple of young clowns and I dread the day, probably 15+ years down the road that I will have to do that. Its ok to be a grown man crying, she meant the world to you.
