Lost my boy today (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by darkdemize@sh.itjust.works to c/cat@lemmy.world
 

I'm heartbroken. We found out he was FIV positive shortly after we got him, but that doesn't make the loss any easier. He was only 1.5 years old. Hold your cats close for me tonight.

Edit: I fell asleep, so I'm sorry that I didn't respond to everyone. I'm very thankful to everyone for the kind words and support.

Thank you! I'm missing him so much right now. He should be in my lap, and he's not šŸ˜­

As I believe with my cat, both we and they are lucky to have chosen us to go through this disease. He got a loving home. He must have felt very safe to sit with you such. And you got to take care of a special animal in need of love and care.

Iā€™m so sorry! That is such a sad feeling.
