My cat Tom is approaching the end of his days and I don’t know how to go on. I’ve had this cat as long as I can remember, I was 7, he’s 13 now. All my memories include him in some shape or form, we’ve been inseparable. He’s been declining steadily over the past three months, not eating as much, losing weight, etc but today was by far the worst it’s been. He spends most of his time sleeping on my bed, but today was different. He was weak, tottering around and was barely able to get onto the bed. He stayed in the same position all day, never drank or got up to use the litter box. He did perk up when I brought him a bit of chicken (his favorite food) but as soon as he ate it he fell asleep again. I’ve been holding him in my arms all day long, and I kept crying, unable to think about what will happen when he goes. He’s been my best friend, always there to comfort me when I feel alone. And now that it’s my turn to comfort him I can hardly bring myself to. I said goodbye to him tonight, I’m terrified of going to bed or leaving him alone and coming back and he passed and I couldn’t say goodbye, or that I loved him. And now I’m sitting here in my room crying my eyes out and unable to go back into that room with him and the other cats. I sat with him for an hour and just talked to him about how much I love him, and how good he’s been to me all these years, and that I’ll see him again some day. It hurts so much. I don’t know what to do and I’m so, so afraid.
