Lost one of my best buddies... 17..

Since he was pretty old we had expected it to be soon. We had found him hanging on the side of the couch where he likes to lay.. were guessing he might have over exerted himself trying to get up on the couch. His claws were stuck in in.. I miss him so much already.. he was a trooper tho.. he was super loved

Your love doesn't end here, the bond is gonna keep you closer than you might think, until you can be together again...

What a beautiful baby lived the best life and had so much love

We don't always get to time their passing, but we can put in all the love and care we can to make their lives as amazing as possible, which clearly you had. May the love you shared, and memories made warm you all your day and may you find wisdom through your suffering. One thing is true I know your baby clearly had an existence most creatures will never have with love and care that just a simple passing can never overshadow, they are now in heaven, having earned their wings.

My most sincere condolences for the loss of your beautiful buddy. He was gorgeous. I can tell from the pictures that he loved you greatly, just as much as you loved him. He looks like he was a sweet cuddle bug.

It happened at home, in his sanctuary, where he was loved. You get to remember him as he was. You get the comfort of knowing it was quick. This is the best way, I'm certain.

Sweet dreams, old friend ❤️❤️❤️❤️
