Mourning/Loss Give your babies a little extra love tonight.

Our 7 year old baby Loki had a sudden onset saddle thrombosis. 😢 he was in so much pain and had to be put to sleep. He was my wife and I’s first cat and was always so full of love and ready to cuddle. He loved to go on walks when it wasn’t too hot or loved going on vacation and hiking. He had a grumpy face but he loved to cuddle with his younger brother and sister. They were looking around for him when we got home. He was the bestest boy.

We just lost our boy Finch, who was only 8 yo due to cancer. It was sudden and unexpected. And painful for us! It’s sooo hard!

That hurts. My cat is a tabby boy I got off the streets of San Diego. I would die for him, because he means so much to my spouse and me.
