"There is something about the prescence of a cat that takes the bite out of being alone"
I woke up yesterday feeling tired but thats not exactly unexpected as im the worst person to get out of bed in the mornings, but one thing i didnt expect to feel that day was sad. I didn't expect to have to say goodbye to my cat, i went downstairs gave her a stroke as i always had done i knew she was going to the vets and i saw her go but i just expected her to return that night with a shaved belly and feeling sorry for herself because she was gonig to have to have a cone around her head.
This however wasn't the case after i got home from the doctors my mum said the vet had rung and said the cancer she had was untreatable and it was probably nicer to just let her go :(.
It sounds so silly but i woke up today and my house was completely empty, the beanbag she always slept on was there but it was empty there was no silly jingle of her bell or even the annoyance of being woken up by her this morning, it just felt so lonely. I don't think we realise just how much of a bond we make with animals, like animals are always there, they have ears they can isten but unlike humans they dont communicate in the same way, i think this often comes as a benefit for the fact we all talk to our animals whether it be in a silly cute way or just mumbling about the general problems of the day but they can't repeat what you've said they can't judge you they can't bitch about you or decieve you.
I think the worst bit about her dying was that i wasnt ready for it like there was no warning that morning, they day didnt even have a funny feel to it it just felt like any other day i guess its taught me a lesson that be it day or night human or animal we never know when were gonna go and we gotta be grateful for what we have whilst its here.
