My best friend’s cat Bun had to be put to sleep today. It was unexpected. I’d known him for 17 years, since he was a tiny kitten. RIP, Bun. Such a sweet kitty.
I don’t want to make the day shittier by thinking about MRAs.

Rest in peace Bun 🙁
She’ll just have to decide on her own when it’s right for her whether or not she’s ready for another animal. That’s a deeply personal decision. My first cat, Maxwell Smart, died from the tainted pet food in early 2009. I had a second cat at the time, but it was still just too lonely without him there so I went and adopted a kitten from Angel’s Wish (local rescue) just a week later. Now I have three! But I know my boss still hasn’t recovered from having to put her dog down a couple of years ago. They still haven’t gotten another animal.
Poor Bun. I’m sorry, David.
I’m sorry, David. I’ve lost two cats and each time was horrible.
I’m so sorry, David. It’s tough to lose a kitty. Heartfelt condolences and much love to you and your friend.
Sorry to hear it dude. Lost my dog 10 years ago n I still miss her, so I feel your pain.
David, I’m sorry to here that you and your friend are going through this. I recently had to put down one of my two rabbits…its tough.
I wish you and yours peace.
I’ve been a long-time lurker and never a commentor, but I took the plunge today.
I’m so sorry honey. I hope all these well-wishers can clear your day a little bit.
Keep up the good work.
Sleep well, Bun. And *hugs* to any of Bun’s loved ones who want them.
That’s so sad, losing a loved one is a terrible thing, be it a person or a pet. My condolences to you, your friend, Bun’s litter mate and everyone else involved.
I’m sorry for your loss, David. *virtual hug*
My family actually has to get our beagle, Bud, put to sleep later today. We’ve had him since I was in first grade (I’m twenty-three now), but lately he’s been in such pain, barely eats his food, and won’t take the pills to help him.
Oh Amnesia ): sorry to you, too. Sorry to everyone grieving for a pet.
I think you made the right decision, David.
It’s hard to lose a friend.
Best wishes.
Amnesia, I’m so sorry to here that. Best wishes to your family.
Sad news. I had a cat when I was young and when we had to put her to sleep, we regretted it after. It’s always a sad thing.
That was usually the hardest part of working at the vet. 🙁
Condolence, which is all I can offer.
I’m sorry to hear about the kitty. Losing an animal that you care about really hurts.
That’s awful. I’m sorry that happened…
I have two cats. Both are turning 11 this year, so they still likely have quite a few years left, fortunately. I couldn’t imagine living without them at this point. I’ve literally grown from a pre-teen into an adult alongside them (I got them when I turned 11 and am currently 21).
I’m sorry to hear that David. RIP Bun. <3
Amnesia, I’m sorry.
I’m so sorry to hear about Bun, David, and Amnesia, I’m so sorry about your beagle. It’s so horribly hard to lose a pet.
*hugs to all who want them*
I am so sorry for your friend’s loss, and your as well.
“When there was room on the ledge outside for the pots and boxes for a cat, the cat was there – in sunny weather – stretched at full length, asleep and blissful, with her furry belly to the sun and a paw curved over her nose. Then that house was complete, and its contenment and peace were made manifest to the world by this symbol, whose testimony is infallible. A home without a cat – and a well-fed, well-petted, and properly revered cat – may be a perfect home, perhaps, but how can it prove title?”
Mark Twain liked cats, too. This is from Puddinghead Wilson.
Amnesia, I’m really sorry.
Amnesia, I’m so sorry. Hugs!
And thanks again, everyone. We’ll be ok, I know. It’s just going to be sad and weird for awhile.
donsie, thank you so much!
