It is almost a year now since my boy cat died. He was poisoned. I am very, very upset about it.
The hospital tried to save him but it was no use. And the staff were amazed at how gentle and friendly he was. Even though he was in agony, and dying, he still kept trying to make friends and cuddle people. I got a lovely lady vet to come and help put him down at home. And I know I did the right thing. But it really hurts.

wow, that has to be hard, dealing with your own grief whilst also trying to help another furbaby grieve too. i really don't have alot of advice, but i did google "grieving pet natural rememdies" and there seemed to be some interesting information and products out there that might help (i don't know the rules about links to other sites, so just gave you what i searched). understanding how pets grieve might help and also natural products can often be quite effective. i know we have a qualified vet who is also trained in various alternative treatments in our area, so maybe you might too. our vet hospital sometimes also uses homeopathic rememdies, acupucnture and a chinese herbalist as an adjunct to their standard medical treatments.
i wish i could just give you a magic answer because it sounds like it is taking it's toll on you both, but all i can do is let you know you're in my thoughts and i hope you find something that can bring you both some relief. take as gentle care of you as you can -------------------- "There is no right way to grieve, there is just your way."
