My 19 year old Kitty died :-(

**bensgirl1222** · 05-22-2006, 10:32 AM

She was my baby and I love her very much. She lives at my mom's bc thats where she has been for forever. Well, my mom went away for the weekend and when they came home, Alexa (my 3 year old little sister) found Baby Cat not breathing in the laundry room near her food bowl

It's so sad. I miss her like crazy and can't stop crying.

I used to do this thing where I would kiss her head and smell her at the time. I have always remembered her smell and now I can't do that anymore

I didn't even get to say goodbye. I hope she knew I loved her even though I left her at my mom's when I moved out.

And I have this blanket that I have had since I was a baby and it was the only blanket that she would "knead" like bread with her paws. I wish she would have got to do that one last time.

I want to say a nice poem or prayer for her when I go to visit her grave tonight. Any ideas?

TIA.

Jess

I am also upset that she died alone...with no one home to comfort her. Poor baby

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Maybe you could read the Rainbow Bridge poem to her? I know many people find that comforting.

I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty. {{{HUGS}}}

So sorry for the loss of your kitty

She was obviously very loved, and I am sure she knew it!

Oh, I'm so sorry! I can tell, though, that she had a very good life.

I'm so sorry to hear of your baby's passing.

I hope my kitties live to be 19 years old

I'm sure she knew that you loved her when you left her at your Mom's. That's why you left her there, you did what was best for her.

I'm happy that your kitty got 19 long years here with you and your family. I'm sorry you had to lose her so unexpectedly without anyone around. I'm sure she knew she was a part of your family and very loved. I would also recommend The Rainbow Bridge to read at her grave tonight. Although, it is a major tear jerker for me.

You and your kitty will be in my thoughts.
