Title: Star has died
Post by: Catcrazymum on June 18, 2008, 22:30:26 PM
I've posted in the past but not for quite a while I have (had) 2 female kittens aged 11 months old they recently got spayed (at 6 months) and I have been letting them out in the past month or so and Star (my gray furry princess) didn't come home last night and my neighbour found her today in the field behind our house she said she was dead but didn't look injured, I can't stop crying so bear with me, my mum and I went to find her to bring her home to be buried and she wasn't there, we knocked on the door of a house that over looked the park and they had rung the council and they had got rid of her, but apparently Twinkle (my tortie princess) had been sat with her for hours they described Twinkle exactly, this made me even more sad as they are inseprable and sleep, play,eat do everything together,

Twinkle is so sad tonight and keeps looking for Star :'(

I am so sad and can't stop crying,  I've got to tell my 5 and 8 year old daughters tomorrow  :'(

So sorry to hear the sad news  :hug:  I remember when you first got them  :(   I know it must be awful to think of little Twinkle sat with her but it will help her to grieve as she will have seen her sister and known that she had gone.

RIP little Star, safe and sound at the Bridge until your Mum is ready to collect you  :hug:

Remember Our Love

I was chosen that day
I'm learning to fly
the world took me away,
but please don't you cry

And I chose you today
to try and be strong
so please don't you cry
and don't say that I'm gone

When you're feeling alone
just remember our love,
I'm up near the stars
looking down from above.

Remember our love
In a moment you'll see
that I'm still here beside you
when you're thinking of me.

i'm so very sorry to read this, it is hard enough losing our furbabes, but worse when it is sudden and unexpected. Make sure you give TWinkle lots of cuddles, you both need it. RIP little one.

OMG    :( :(  I am so so sorry for you loss. It will get easier but it will take time, the best times are when you think of her and smile at all the funny things and even at the naughty things she did. like peeing on the floor or sctatching the wallpaper, they are just trivial.

Night Night little lady - the brighest star in the sky.xxxxxxx

I'm so sorry to hear this, thinking of twinkle watching over star all that time brings a tear to the eye.

RIP beautiful little Star. I'm sure twinkle needs you just as much as you need her at this time, my thoughts are with you.

RIP little Star - may you and Twinkle light up rainbow bridge. The world is a little dimmer without your sparkle to make your human smile.....play hard at the bridge little one.
 :hug: :hug: Nothing anyone can say can lessen your grief - only know that we are all thinking of you, and that Star was a very lucky gilr to have you as her cat-slave :hug:

Hi again everyone I've just got back from work and Twinkle is all over me wanting cuddles and her neck tickling!

Just reading all your kind words has made me cry again, I don't think I'll ever get over the loss of Star but I have to try to be strong and be the best cat mummy I can to Twinkle

Its making me really sad as Twinkle keeps looking for her....I don't think she realises that Star isn't coming back  :'(

Post by: Catjane on June 19, 2008, 20:44:06 PM
Oh how awful - I'm so sorry  :(  Perhaps Twinkle was there with her to comfort her when she went to the Bridge.  Poor baby. 

Play hard at the Bridge, little one.  Watch over your meowmy and Twinkle til you meet again.  :hug:

OMG I'm so sorry for you, your family and of course poor little Twinkle.

You may find the following article of interest / help : http://www.fabcats.org/owners/euthanasia/bereavement.html

I can't imagine how you must be feeling at the moment and I'm sure Twinkle is just as sad and confused as to where her sister is.  She will be looking to you for comfort and suport as much as you are to her.  Cats (even little ones) are very sensitive to human grief and she will want to make you happy again ... let her!  Tell her how much you love her and explain to her that her sister will be watching her from the bridge and remember kitten fur is great for soaking up tears.

We are all here for you hun.

Love and  :hug:

Sam, Foxy, zephyr and Rossi xxxx

Ive just been to the supermarket and treated Twinkle to a new cat toy, cat milk and whiskas temptations

She looks really sad today (or am I imagining it??) she is following me around everywhere I go which is unlike her she normally only does this when she's hungry

In reply to Yvonne I don't know if I'll get another cat, I could'nt ever replace Star, but on the other hand Twinkle seems so lonley as she has always had Star to play with, sleep with and she was always grooming her! The only other problem is I have Honey my 3 year old labarador who is really soft-  the kittens took a while to get used to her and now they are fine with her (sorry -Twinkle is fine with her) so how would a new kitten/cat cope?

Post by: Kirst on June 20, 2008, 15:40:39 PM
You can never replace a furbabe who you have had the privilege of being owned by........................but you can give a loving home to one(or two!) who desperately need it!!

Gizzy and Jerry could never replace Oscar , but they are little darlings in their own right and I'm sure that somewhere Oscar is looking on and purring!

Beavis was obviously lonely after we lost Oscar , and he has in general been fine with the new boys , even cuddling up on one occasion.

Honey and Twinkle may need some time to accept a new kitty , but I am sure they will be quite happy with a new friend to play with eventually :Luv:
