Our lovely cat Bart died this morning. I'd had him since he was a tiny kitten and he was getting on for 15 so he had been through so many of the ups and downs of my life. He'd been getting weaker over the past couple of weeks and today he just sighed and drifted off as H and I stroked and talked to...

I'm sat at my desk crying and my boss has told me (nicely) to go home.

    Thank you.

    I have come home and buried Bart under the apple tree in the garden and planted spring bulbs over the top.

    Hoping H might be able to come home early too.

    They aren't pets are they? They're family.

    I'm so sorry for the loss if Bart. I know he would have had a lovely life with you. At least he went peacefully with the people he loved around him. Xxxxxxxxx

    Oh lovely, did you have to do that by yourself? That’s really brave. I was a blubbering mess when our first bunny died, and we only had her a few days.

    It will be lovely to see the flowers come up every year in his memory.

    Xxxxx

    Have only just managed to get on Hitched today and this is sad sad news indeed.

    Sorry to hear this AC...even though our cats are only just over 2 years old, the littlest thought that they might not be here one day sets me off.

    Hope Bart sleeps well, and you get lots of hugs from H

    It was the last act of love for him.I couldn't not give him a decent burial and I couldn't do it in the dark when H gets home.

    So sorry to hear this ☹️ Bart will be up in the night sky looking down at you now, just look for the biggest star tonight and he will tell you that he got there safely. ️⭐️ I've loved and lost too many cats, and know how you feel. I'm sure you gave him the best 15 years of life ever. Much love to you xxx

    This has made me cry - we too had a cat called Bart he reached the grand old age of 17 before he had to go to sleep, was awful...

    It will take a while to stop feeling sad but you will get there.
