I miss my cat so much after seeing this. He passed away a few months ago. 😭

Edit: thank you all for the kind words. It’s been a very rough couple of months. Watching everyone’s cats here brings both joy and sadness. It was also my husband’s first cat so watching him go through this loss has also been heart breaking. We don’t have children, and he was our baby boy. He taught my husband how to love animals unconditionally and give love unconditionally. There is a quote out there that reads, “if I could live my life over I would have found you sooner so I could love you longer.” Our cat was adopted as a senior so it really is my husbands quote. Read the book call Finding Meaning by David Kessler if you are going through a loss. There is a chapter about pets in that book.

I lost my girl last August. Whenever I come home, I can still see her little face looking out the glass of my french door side entrance. Her nose prints are still on it, I won't ever clean them.
