My cat of 12 years passed this morning about 2 am. She was showing signs of being sick a few hours before. I thought maybe she was just a bit under the weather. I gave her some milk and figured i'd check in on her and if she was still down i'd take her to vet early morn. After about 2 hours and checking on her often. She passed away. Right now i'm in such a dark place. I feel sooo bad for not taking her to the vet when she first looked sluggish. I miss her already.. Was one of the toughest things i had to go threw. I never thought this far ahead or ever of her passing. My best friend is gone and i'm having a really ruff time. I'm trying to keep my head up but .... it hurts alot.

I am so sorry for the loss of your cat.

We all know what you're going through and this soon after the loss, not even 10 hours ago, it's only normal to doubt that you did everything you could for her. The "what ifs" will drive you crazy if you let them; it sounds to me like your cat may have just passed away due to age. It doesn't sound like she was in distress or hurting... she passed away in the home of her person, warm and safe, and when you think about it we should all be so luck to have our passings happen that way.

We're all here for you... we're a family here, bound together by a love of animals and the pain their passing causes, and we're here to hold your hand in your grief journey.

Welcome to the family, and please let us know how you're doing... when you're feeling up to it we'd all love to see some pictures of her.
