Rest in Peace: My Cat, Mr. Red, my best friend.

[Saiyaman]

Well today me and my mom took Mr. Red to the Vet since in the last two months it went downhill pretty quickly with him, he didn't eat anymore, became really skinny, had difficulty just walking around and basically wasn't himself anymore.

The doctor said that it was kidney failure and that there was nothing he could do other than to put him asleep since letting him die the natural way would be too painful for him

Mom then told me since I was his owner that it was up to me and as I stood there with him in my arms at the vet's office I had to decide. I gave him a hug and told them that I needed a moment alone.

I stood there outside the office with a heavy heart before making my decision. I walked inside and told the doctor "Go ahead, I don't want him to suffer anymore." Mom asked me if I wanted to say goodbye, to hold him one last time but I couldn't, I just couldn't. I told her that I'd be walking home and said with my voice breaking "Tot ziens gekke kat, ik zal je zo erg missen."

I'm sitting here in that same chair on the pictures, there's a little pluck of his hair still there and the realization that he's no longer there is just so painful.

I'm deeply sorry.

I recently lost a cat to kidney failure, too. It's never easy to lose a friend or to make the decision to end their suffering, though you made the right decision under the circumstances. I'm sorry for your loss.

With sympathy.

I've had to make that decision, too, and I know how much it hurts. So sorry.

He looks like a sweetie.

 

[Saiyaman]

He looks like a sweetie.

Thanks for your support guys I means a lot.

If you want to know what he was like, look at the third picture of him looking at the camera. That pose shows him how he truly was.

A lovable goofball.

Saiyaman,

So sorry to read you've lost a best friend. It is hard, but the pain will fade and only happy memories will remain.

R.I.P. Mr. Red

{{{Lots of hugs for you.}}}

Saying goodbye to a furbaby always hurts, but relish the memories you made with each other and know that he is waiting to see you again at the Rainbow Bridge.
