My cat Morgan is being put to sleep tomorrow morning. He's the best cat ever. I'll miss him. He's 15, so it's OK.

I'm sorry.
Losing a pet can be really devastating.

Just so sorry....losing a pet (friend) is hard.

Wrong Planet inhabitants tend to love our animals......seems as if Morgan had a great life - to 15 yrs old.

{{{{{Hugs to Morgan and to you}}}}} This is hard. Cats to me are on the same level as people. I have been close to more cats than people. I am so sorry for your loss.

My cat died last summer. She died in her sleep I believe because my dad came out to feed her and he thought she was sleeping and when he touched her, he saw she was dead.

Kidney failure. He's been so miserable this last week it's heartbreaking.

Thanks for the support everyone.

Ohh dear, they're such good friends, so forgiving and full of unconditional love.
Very hard to have to put animals to sleep, but if they are in suffering it is actually the most loving thing to do.
Knowing that doesn't make it hurt less to lose and miss them.
:cry:
Kathy and I definitely feel for ya.
Grumman, MoMo and Smokey Jo would too.
Prayers and love to both of you.
