Oh LH,
I am so, so sorry for your loss.
I am 1000% certain that I would not have survived the past 18 months without my pets. On my darkest days, they were my only reasons to smile.
I am so sorry Eva was taken from you so soon and so senselessly.
I know how painful it is and can only pray that your grief will pass gently on its way...

She isn't just a cat. She was family. I refer to my cat as my son. I would be lost if I lost him. I'm so sorry for your loss...
He cheated. I divorced him. He apologized, I took him back, only to have him cheat again. I could not be more done. The love is gone.

Oh, I'm so, so sorry for your loss...and in such a heartbreaking way. All of us with special pets...the ones that really "understood" us, understand.

Sorry for your loss. I know how painful it is - we lost our beloved kitty when he was only 18 months old to heart trouble. It was just awful seeing him suffer, and devastating to lose him.
Eva looked like a beautiful kitty. I'm sure you have many happy memories

Thank you for the overwhelming support we have received here.
LH is devastated. So am I. We loved he so much. She was so tiny, yet so huge in the house. It seems very empty here, despite having another cat and two dogs. She was unique, and made memories everywhere.
It was her second birthday today.
happy birthday my darling, rest easy. Catch all the birds, voles, rabbits and slow worms you like. Xxx
Missing her so much.
I lost my Grannie whom I love very much this year. I was sad, but I understood. She was 87 and lived a tremendous life. She was ready to move on, next to her husband.
The grief of losing eva is totally overwhelming. I feel bad that I grieve more for my cat, but it seems so unfair. She was not even 2 for christs sake. God I miss her.
Just expect her to break in through the cat flap with a jingling bell and noisy MIAOW wondering what all the fuss is about.
My other cat is an older boy. A solo flyer that was so tolerant of her. He's just sat and stared at the cat flap.
This loss stuff sucks real bad.

I am so, so sorry for your loss! I literally wouldn't have survived the last 10 months without my beloved dog, so I fully understand the deep and powerful support a pet can provide during traumatic times. My heart is just aching for you.

I find these kinds of posts to be among the hardest on SI. Not just an animal, but a beloved that has done so much, and deserves so much more in return.
Your mileage may vary... in accordance with the prophecy.
Do not back up. Severe tire damage.

Man, that is just heartbreaking. What a beautiful girl, with such a beautiful name. I am so sorry for your loss, and what you had to go through with finding her in that condition, LonelyHusband and OktoberMest.

That cat literally saved my life.
Just when I thought I had developed healthier coping skills for dealing with loss, it turns out I am still a fucking disaster. I'm sitting here in floods of tears, bawling for my little baby girl. I recognise myself flying around the stages of grief from denial to bargaining to anger, but recognising it doesn't seem to help me cope any better. I just want my kitten back :(
I recognise this pain all too well. My heart is broken.

Apparently not an appropriate reason for coming home drunk at 2AM.

Eva was never just a cat.
She was your family.
Rest in Peace, Eva.
She will be waiting for you, LH and Oktober, at the Rainbow Bridge.

There are degrees to which you let people back into your life and degrees to which you let them back into your heart-which, of course, are not the same thing

Someone once told me to post a picture to the web (which you just did) to honor them and release their joy to the world when my own cat of 15 years passed away.
This same person said they will be waiting for you and meet you at the gate of heaven (or whatever your religion believes) when your time comes.
Hold onto that. It helped me.
Stop expecting loyalty from people who cannot even give you honesty.
He stopped being my husband the first time he cheated. It took me awhile to understand that I was no longer his wife.
