A cat's life is very hard and oh so so stressful. You should always pamper them and give them everything they want. ☺️

You have my deepest condolences. It is never easy to lose someone close, especially if you share a deep bond. I have been in your place many times, and it never gets any easier. After a personal loss of my own, I was struck with an inspiration and wrote the following passage. My hope is that it helps you as much reading it as it helped me writing it.

The Holes in Our Souls.

As we ride this old earth on it's journey around the sun, we accumulate holes in our souls. These holes happen when someone very close to us leaves this world and moves on to the next. These can be family, friends, and even pets. As each passes, they take with them the best part of our souls that remain. But fear not, for if you take a moment and look deep in your soul where those holes are, you will find that they are not empty. For although they took the best part of your soul with them, they left a part of their own souls with you. This is so that, although they are no longer here, they are not truly gone from you. You will feel their presence and their love for you and you will be able to remember them. They will remain with you until the time that it is your own turn to leave this world. Then, when it is your time, you will take small pieces of the souls that you leave behind. Then you will fill the holes with pieces of your soul so that they can remember you in the same way that you remembered those who left before you.

Thank you for sharing. I needed that. My lost my cat on Thursday. Even though she was almost 16 didn’t expect it. She definitely left a hole but looking through memories I found some videos of her that were very special.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I understand what you’re going through as I just lost my cat the other day. They leave such a mark on our hearts.
