Difficult Time, Almost 2 weeks since I lost my cat Options

[Susanv]

Hi all, tomorrow will mark the 2nd week since I lost my cat, Poer-Woer, in a hit and run accident. (He was so called because of the purring sound he made). I'm still completely devastated as he was one of the things in this life that kept me going. I'm having a really difficult time. I don't know if I will ever get over this. My mother rushed me to the doctors earlier this week, because I was shaking uncontrolably. The shock has still not worn off. And I miss him terribly. These past two days I just sat staring at nothing in particular. I'm like a zombie. I take a lot of drives to where I can be alone and then I cry and cry. This always makes me feel better, but the pain in my heart is very intense. That morning my cat was 100% healthy - nothing wrong with him and that afternoon he was gone. He never even knew what hit him and for that I'm very thankful. He didn't suffer.

Poer-Woer, 1998 - 2005
I love you...

Dear Susany,

I am so very sorry that you lost your adorable Poer-Woer. What a cute name! I'll bet he had the other cats laughing when he arrived in Heaven and introduced himself! He sure is a pretty boy!

Grief is a path that does not have time constraints and does not fit neatly into categorized stages. It is different for everyone.

It's so hard to understand why we have to lose our precious fur babies in such tragic ways. Fate certainly wasn't kind to you. But then we cannot see the full picture, the entire spectrum of the universe and it's events. One day when your heart is not aching so and the pain has slowly loosened its vice-like grip, you'll begin to allow the wonderful memories to come flooding back. Like Poer's spirit, they are your's....forever!
No one can take them from you.

You will be with Poer-Woer again one day. Such a pure, love-filled creature as your cat will surely be with us again for all eternity.

I've believed this since I was a small child and nothing I've experience thus far in my 56 years has shaken my faith. God created Poer and lent him to you, albeit for such a short time. However, God loves all his creation and I'm sure Poer has returned to God, safe, happy, and racing around Heaven with great joy.

Hold that image in your mind and your pain will slowly slip away!

Bless you, dear friend!
