Our relationships with them are a gift.

That's so true... Izumi impressed me every single day of his life, and I really consider my time with him as a gift.

Thanks for your kind words, much appreciated.

Thank you for sharing your story and your kind words... I won't be the same indeed, but I guess that's part of growing up means...

Indeed... it's especially poignant when flipping through the family album on the TV, noticing he appears in nearly every photo, a constant presence among us.

Yes, they are more than just animals; they are so intertwined with us that they become, to some extent, extensions of ourselves!

Yes definitely, I don't really want to have another one right now even if cats are parts of my life since the beginning... weird feeling, but I don't want to go against it, time will heal.

Thank you for sharing your story and your kind words.

Definitely, yeah. Thank you for your kind comment.

Thank you for sharing your story and your comforting words. I'm not the only one, and it's comforting to see that I was not the only one to feel what I feel. TBH, I discovered a part of myself I didn't know, I didn't know I was so sensitive. The phrase "Grief is the price we pay for love, so cry as hard as you loved them and understand they’ll be waiting for you on the other side.", is what I will remind forever, could print it ! The quote from Lewis is also amazing.

I wouldn’t worry about finding a new cat. I believe they seek you out when you’re ready.

I guess that's what's going to happen, yeah... Thank you for your kind message.

Thank you... <3

Oh so sorry to read this :(

The house feel so empty without him right now, but I simply cannot resolve to have another cat right now... even it would be nice for my other lonely cat crying almost everyday around the house looking for his friend. But nope... that's too fresh, that's too soon, I need to forget a bit and time will help.

Thank you...
