Re: OT: Sad day
Tell me about it...
Been there, done that.
Had a Siamese cat a long time ago. If you know cats, then you know Siamese cats are usually one-person cats. Well, I belonged to him. No matter what I was doing, he had to be on me...supper, TV, bed, computer. Washed me all the time.
He got old and sick. I'll never forget giving up on getting him well and let him out in the yard to eat some grass, put him in the car and took him to the vet to be killed (for some reason, I prefer to call it what it is). They saw me at the front door, unable to go in and tears in my eyes. The doctor motioned for me to go around to the back. I'll never forget his eyes shutting slowly as he looked at me.
Took me about 5 years before I ever got another cat.
So, yes, some people DO know what you mean. You have my sympathy.
