Cats get a bad rep for being antisocial but my cat is anything but. He loves atention and has to be near me any time I am at home. He egarly greets me at the door meowing until I pick him up after a long day of work. He messes up my typing by forcefuly rubbing his forehead against my hand while I typing ims and posting on 4chan, and disrupts my sleep by curling up on my chest or the small of my back while purring liek a motor boat.

Cat's can be very sociable and friendly animals mine is the proof!

Your cat looks and acts a lot like mine did.

Mine had feline leukemia, developed lymphoma, and died Sunday night.

Hope your luck is better than mine was. :/

I've had several relatives and family friends die and I didn't feel much. However when we had to put my cat to sleep, whom we'd had for 13 years (he was 15 or so) I cried for a week afterwards, and it hurt for several months. I still miss him. =\

I BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW'd for a good half week.

Full story:

She was three years old, which was longer than the average lifespan of a FeLV+ cat, so we were obviously doing something right. Kept her confined to the room my fiancee and I share, since there are other cats in the house that we have no authority to kick out (long story short, a housemate's), kept her fed and watered and attended to practically 24/7, basically gave her the best life we could. Anyway, Wednesday night she snuck out of the room when I went to the restroom (she sped through the closing door while my back was turned), and a minute or two later after I was done in the bathroom, I heard a catfight. Since there was only our cat, the housemate's cat, and the housemate's kittens in the house, I assumed that our cat was involved and hunted her down. She was hiding in the kitchen.

Anyway, took her back to our room, and she spent the rest of the night sitting in the corner of our entertainment center in the dark. This wasn't really unusual for her, since she had a tendency to find weird places to sleep, but the next day she was still there, staring off. We scheduled a vet appointment and got her in Friday morning since she was acting weird, and that's when they diagnosed her with lymphoma and a bacterial infection and said she probably wouldn't make it. They prescribed antibiotics anyway, and we took her home and BAWWWW'd for a bit. That night when it was time to give her her medicine, she threw it back up. We waited an hour or two and gave her a smaller dose, which she took.

Saturday, she was relatively okay. Ate less than usual, and spent most of the day resting, took her medicine calmly, and we were getting our hopes up.

Sunday, she wasn't eating or drinking at all, and seemed to be having difficulties breathing. When we tried to give her her medication that night, she couldn't swallow it at all, and she was breathing as if she had fluid in her lungs. We knew that she wasn't going to make it through the night, so we held her in our laps for an hour or two, saying our goodbyes and making her comfortable (she had her eyes closed and was purring most of the time). We took her to the emergency vet a little bit after midnight, and they gave a grim prognosis. We cried for a good long while when they told us it would be best to euthanize her. As much as we loved her company, we didn't want her to suffer any more than she was (she seemed to be in pain at this point, though she kept purring and loving on us).

It was the most painful thing in my life to put her down. I've been tearing up and crying since Sunday night, and spent a good majority of Monday in bed mourning with the missus.

Loved that cat so freaking much. Was the first cat I've actually been able to call my own (well, technically she was the fiancee's cat, I've never owned my own cat before this one), was a weird little bundle of joy... I miss her so much ;_;

Rest in Peace, Tesla.

149501 still here, forgot one thing.

This week hasn't been any better. Yesterday, our dog was acting weird (she's about 2.75 years old), making noises like she was in pain and having difficulty walking. Took her into the vet, and she's got pressure on her spine from something like a slipped disc. After bringing her home from the vet, she lost use of her hind legs completely. We brought her back in, and they tested her for deep pain reactions, which she still has, so she has a good prognosis still. She will hopefully walk again, but may never walk quite the same.

I BAWWWWWWWWW'd a bit about that too. Two-hit combo'd. -_-

I have you all beat. My mom died unexpectedly when I was 16, my best friend had died a month before. A week later my cat who I'd had for 10 years or so got mauled by two neighbors' dogs and died. I wonder why I was depressed for so long.

149501 here. We're thinking about it - the housemate has a litter of 5 kittens, and we're especially attached to two of 'em, but we're not 100% sure we want to get one so soon after Tesla's passing.
