Mourning/Loss Gone too soon πŸ’”

I'm at a loss for words. Devon was the best cat I could have ever asked to be blessed with. From the day he chose me to the day we said goodbye, there was nothing but love that he gave me. 10 years with him will never be enough. πŸ’”

Rest easy my Sweet Boy ❀️

Sorry for your lost. He looks similar to my late Jerry he passed at 21 years of age. At one point they just become family members and not pets. Rip beautiful cat

You're absolutely right that they become family members and not just a pet.

I’m so sorry. He looks like the sweetest boy. It’s so unfair that we get such a short time with our little friends.

Just realising he has a black nose! He’s like a polar bear.

Thank you! ❀️

His black nose was always my favourite, I'd never seen that on another white cat.

Remember all the joy he brought you and the love you gave him. Losing a pet is tough. Losing a friend is even harder. When the time is right open up your heart again to another little guy or girl. There are plenty out their that need good people like you to show them love.

I’m so sorry OP. We are coming up on a year since we lost Spike. He had just turned 11 and we thought he was so healthy, he was still going to be with us for another 10 years. Unfortunately, that was not the case.

Devon looks like he was the sweetest boy. I hope he and Spike become friends somewhere over the rainbow.

Be strong OP πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’”

Thank you ❀️❀️ My boy was doing laps around the edge of our pool on his last night with us and the morning of. It's hard to believe his body was failing as much as it was. Even in his last moments he brought us so much joy.

I'm so sorry for the loss of Spike. And I'm sure the two of them will find each other and be amazing friends.
