Put a cat to sleep yesterday. Feel like I'm being a massive fuckoff inconvenience for booking in some annual for the next couple days, yet I know it'll be worse if I go in.
Not sure what the point of this comment was, but fuck it, sometimes you've gotta vent.
So sorry to hear that. Lots of hugs. Good on you for taking the time.
My condolences β₯
You just lost a member of your family. Take time off to grieve and vent all you need to
It's the hardest decision to make. Vent away, we understand. And take the days off too. Grief is not limited to losing human friends and family, these furry buggers are more family than my blood relatives.
Really sorry to hear that. It's rough.
Take the time off without guilt, the loss and grief are not small things even if others might think it shouldn't matter. It's better to give yourself the time and space than to force yourself through. Condolences for your loss.
Iβm so sorry
My deepest sympathies. π Take the time without guilt.
I'm really sorry β€οΈ
Oh Iβm so sorry - itβs just the hardest thing to do. We had to do that a while back and it was just awful. Kept expecting her to pop up around the house for ages afterwards.
