Today my little buddy was put to sleep. Last fall she had some weird symptoms and when she went to the vet they said it'd be thousands of bucks just to diagnose the problem and also she got incredibly stressed out when she went there. So we figured we'd just let her ride it out. Then recently she started getting bone thin and wasn't eating well and was getting weak. So before things got too bad, we decided to have a vet do in-home euthanasia.

Dis my girl. She bossed around the dog and the rest of the house. In her spare time, she loved to cuddle and she was the best purrer I ever met.

Im so sorry. Even when its the right thing it hurts. I put down my dog Achilles in July of 2019. Coming up on 5 years and still hurts. My girl Athena has been gone 11 years and it still hits me. Itll be pretty tough for awhile.

This is her when we first found her fourteen years ago inexplicably wedged under the front door.

And here she is sharing a hoodie with me and silently wishing me dead.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is one of the downsides of pets/life. I also lost some beloved family members recently. One was a 15 year old dog, but the other was only about 7.

One day the 7 year old was energetic as always jumping, and spinning, but had a little cough, then the next day they were almost lethargic so we took them to the emergency vet, but they could only put them down. They both died within a week of each other.

Then a few days after that a family friend a very nice older man who would talk to me when he walked his dog died suddenly too. It has been a very depressing few weeks.

rest in peace, chica. i'm sorry if it's been hard for you, but it looks like she had a good life, and it's honestly better not to hang on to your pets too long. my grandma couldn't come to terms with her dog needing to be put down, and he got really bad out of nowhere, it catches up with them like letting go of a rubberband

That's terrible. I'm sorry for your losses as well.

My grandma died in December and my mom and I are still sorting out her estate. She had some kind of cancer and couldn't eat solid food for a while, so Chicky's issues with eating this past week were painful to see for that reason too.

Yeah, that was our fear. That she was suffering already and that it was only gonna get worse as she slowly wasted away. I'm glad she got to go out snuggling and still able to purr.

Idk why, but I've heard the same thing. It's like how almost all calicoes are female. Most male cats will have two colors at most or something like that.

It's not super rare, but they are less common than males.

The ginger gene which produces the orange colour is on the X chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes and so need two copies of this gene to become ginger, whereas males need only one.
This means there are roughly three males to one female ginger cat.

RIP Kitty.

condolences for loss. i had to have my cat put to sleep years ago too (abdominal cancer). would be too costly and i didn't want her to suffer

soon enough my dog will face the same fate. she's still going strong despite being a medium-large breed at age 13 (only has arthritis).

RIP to your kitty. They really do become part of the family; judging by that relaxed pic she was lucky to have a good home. She was a pretty cute one, not that they aren't all.

It's such a rough go when this happens. I'm sorry for your loss.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. And thanks for looking at my pretty baby. It's weird not having her around hounding me for pets or snacks. It's peaceful, but I am gonna miss the sound of her purring.
