This is my cat Stripey. He slept on my legs in bed every night for fifteen years. He went to heaven last Christmas. Putting him to sleep was the hardest thing I ever had to do in my life. In that time I went through four homes, twenty cars, five jobs, four bankruptcies, and eight girlfriends. Through all the hardships and good times, he was the only constant in my life. It may sound crazy, but I can honestly say that without him, I wouldn't be here today.
I never want to feel loss like that again; but I've realized that the more you hurt when your pet goes to heaven, that means the more you loved them. There are alot of cats out there that need a loving home, and I'm willing to hurt more in the future, so another cat can have a wonderful life.
