I’m heartbroken. We found out he was FIV positive shortly after we got him, but that doesn’t make the loss any easier. He was only 1.5 years old. Hold your cats close for me tonight.
Edit: I fell asleep, so I’m sorry that I didn’t respond to everyone. I’m very thankful to everyone for the kind words and support.
So sorry ☹️ Adopted and cared for even after such a diagnosis. He was lucky to have had you.
=[
My girl is getting older, pushing 9, and I dread it everytime I think of her not being there.
He looked like a good boy. Sorry.
We lost our sphynx very dramatically two weeks ago, and he was only 10 years old with no prior health issues, so I know how it feels.
You’re not alone.
Me and my partner are still devastated and find ourselves sobbing uncontrollably every day.
It was like losing a child.
Life is on auto pilot these days.
I hope I’ll see a good day again.
Sorry to hear that:(
Im so sorry to hear that. I lost a cat to FIV in the past as well.
Very sorry to hear this. I’m sure you gave him a wonderful life for the time he had with you.
Hugs
I’m sorry you lost your boy.
I’m so sorry for your loss :'(
He is in a better place, hunting and cuddling in purrhalla
I’m sorry. He’s beautiful and looks so nice. It’s such a hard thing.

I’m sorry my cat dying offends you. Kindly fuck all the way off my post.
I’m right there with you. Today I held my 16yo dog for the last time. 😭
Sorry to both you of you. 😢
I’m so sorry. I hope he went peacefully, knowing he was loved.
I’m so sorry to you both. Losing friends is incredibly hard!
Condolences on your pup 💔😞 hug your pillow extra tight tonight
That’s so sad but 16 years is a hell of a run! Lots of memories in there for sure.
And she wasn’t slowing down at all until this weekend. She just shut down.
I’m so sorry you had to go through that. Here’s our gray cat making our pup feel trapped.
Thank you. I see a lot of similarities between your cat and ours. I hope you have many* more years with yours.
I’m so sorry! My first cat had FCOV/FIV just as Covid happened in early 2020. His death really affected me but taught me a lot. I hugged him until the end. I know your pain.
Thanks for the reminder of impermanence and cherishing our family and pet family! I struggle with imagining my current pets’ future deaths.
I’ll add he is super cute! I can tell he was a very good boy :)
Since I saw someone else shared a cute photo I will too:
Thank you! I’m missing him so much right now. He should be in my lap, and he’s not 😭
As I believe with my cat, both we and they are lucky to have chosen us to go through this disease. He got a loving home. He must have felt very safe to sit with you such. And you got to take care of a special animal in need of love and care.
I’m so sorry! That is such a sad feeling.
Thank you so much ❤️
