It's Been 3 Weeks And I Had Another Set Back Today

This will be the 3rd week since I had to euthanize my cat Roxy. I've been keeping busy but for some reason when I got up this morning I was terribly sad and missed her a lot. I had received an envelope from a pet loss centre last week and hadn't opened it yet so I thought that might help. It was very sad to go through it, it brought back all of those feelings. I want to feel them though because I don't want to forget my cat. It suggests putting there tags on your key chain so I think I will do that. I'm still trying to locate a good picture of Roxy so I can have a nice one framed.......
I did finally have a dream about her. In the dream she was sitting on the couch behind me with her paw on my shoulder as she would do every night when she was alive. I took peace with this dream because I felt it showed she had no hard feelings against me.....

Thank-you For Your Kind Words...

I want to thank everyone for there kind words about euthanising my cat. I'm not sure how to work the site properly but have been reading everyone's stories and think it's a great place were we can share our stories, grief and kind words to each other........thanks again Lori

I Also Euthanised My Cat And Now Feel So Terrible.

I registered on this site to talk about my feelings.
Last Wednesday I made the decision to have my cat put down. She had a behavioural problem which had gotton worse this week.She had been peeing on the rug. She had also been throwing up a lot. I had just been laid off work and find it difficult to be cleaning up everytime I turned around. It was either pee on the rug, missing her litter box or throwing up.....
I was not in the financial position to have a lot of vet bills.
She was 11 years old, I thought I had made the right decision but the next morning I was beside myself with grief. I wished I hadn't done it.I wished I could take it back.
She rode on my lap to the vet, being so good in the car. She trusted me and little did she know where we were going.
I miss her a lot, she used to follow me around and lay on the couch beside me while I looked for jobs on the computer....
Her name was Roxy and she was a beautiful affectionate little cat. She looked like she was wearing a little suit with a white shirt and white mittens, I loved to pet her little paws and soft white shirt area.
She loved to be petted and she loved to be brushed.She would throw herself down in front of you so you would have no choice to bend over and rub her belly....
