The cat died, I gotta deal with a man child having a tantrum, I spent 90 minutes on the phone listening to a colleague who was upset, and I gotta go tackle the boss next week even though I know he'll never admit he's wrong.

Overall I think the cat thing is the reason for my low mood.

Fingers crossed for a better week next time.

Taken about a week before be died. He pulled my robe down to use as a bed.

That's a rough one. Even when they've lived a full life it's never easy to say goodbye.

That's a beautiful color, I don't think I've seen many chocolate cats

Thank you. I think he was a beautiful boy too, especially when cuddling!

I'm sorry about your cat 😩 how old was he/she?

[–] essell@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

He was 15, and he was loved and loving all the way upto the end.

As cat lives go, he had a good one. Definitely feeling his absence
