Putting My Cat George to Sleep
I had George fifteen years. A long time to love a pet. He was loved. He was a playful kitten who turned into a handsome, furry and affectionate adult. He got sick one day. Neurological they said. I was not ready for him to go. But he was. His eyes told me good-bye.
He's missed.

Post a CommentSorry to hear this! It's never easy to lose a pet. Also, sorry I've been missing in action lately...life is very hectic! I try to catch up when I can.
I feel your pain, Julie. Pets don't live long enough. Take time to heal and maybe you'll be able to adopt another loving pet.
well written - thank you
Hugs and more hugs. When those times happen, it is hard to do the right thing.
so sad Julie. So sorry for the loss of your longtime friend
I am so sorry. I feel your pain, and I can certainly relate.
Adorable cat. So sorry!
Julie, it is always hard to lose a loved pet! I will be thinking of you!
