I was with her every minute of her last day. She made it to 18 years and her kidneys failed. We are so so sad.

I know that cats often search for a secluded place to die. But I believe / hope it was comforting to have her humans at her side.

Who else has this special experience of being with your cat in the final moments?

    I have a lot of pictures of my Chili on her last evening and last morning. Don’t look very nice though (she had her tongue stick out due to cancer) so I really don’t want to dig them up and post them. She was the purriest tiny little old cat baby though. <3

      Sorry for your loss! It’s still important to also remember the not-so-pretty moments. Good you have those photos.
