It’s killing me I’ll be moved out of this house in a couple weeks and have to leave my friends Klaatu and Chauncy in the ground here.
I’m overprotective of my cats even in passing. A couple years ago a local utility company was moving their lines and someone was showing me where they would be trenching through my yard.
“I’ve got a cat buried right here”
He chuckled like I was making a joke.
“No, I’m serious. If that gets desecrated; It will be a bad day for everyone involved.”
They steered clear. (Sorry, I’m just sad rambling now).
You know…years later and hundreds of miles, I swear I sometimes still hear a meow and catch the flicker of a tail out of the corner of my eye. Maybe in some small way, those of us who truly and deeply loved our pets, who made them family, never truly go forth alone.
Edit: Also, apparently I was flagged as a bot at one point. Which sorta diminishes this comment, but there you go. beep boop
I lost my cat of 16 years at the end of last year. I’d had him longer than I hadn’t. He was the coolest dude, a highland lynx. A major goofball with zero balance, and all the chill. I still routinely see him lounging somewhere out of the corner of my eye, only to realize it’s a random bag or something. Breaks my heart every time. Same with all the pets I’ve lost over the years. They’re special in a way that non animal people will never be able to understand
apparently I was flagged as a bot at one point
You don’t get “flagged” as a bot, it is a user setting in your preferences. You should fix it so that you are not marked as a bot.
That’s fascinating since I know I never selected it. Didn’t even know it existed. I appreciate the heads up!
Edit: Found the setting. Switched it to “On”, which I know based on other settings. Now not showing as bot. Weird bug, I’ll take it though.

Omg. Can someone with Photoshop skills plz add the Saddam meme to this instead of the cat?
Edit: while I’m here, seems therapeutic and everyone else is doing it
I miss you, Mimz <3
Cat tax:
Thank u this post was making me way too sad about my lil guy with renal failure. Now I can think about this lil guy with regime failure instead.
Repost this to a meme sub?
Idk I feel kinda uncomfy about having bastardized such a heartfelt work of art- something the artist very likely may have cried while creating. It exists now though, so you’re welcome to share it if you want!
ty frend
Photoshop seems like overkill for that
That’s what I was expecting before seeing the entire picture
Oh damn.
Thank you but damn.
Gotta go say hi to our passed cats when I get home in the morning.
My son is 3 and goes over to the pear trees where we buried 2 pets in the past 2 years.
Our cat Bruce and our bearded dragon CJ.
He still feels a need to take care of them. He was “in charge” of feeding the lizards so every one in a while he grabs lettuce from the fridge and tries to take it outside for her. While he’s over there he says stuff like “pspsps Bruce wanna play with me” and it fucking obliterates me every time.
Bruce was his best friend, he would do his bed time routine with us everynight and loved my son so much. I’m suprised he even remembers him since he was so young but their immediate bond was really special.
Bruce was the name of my cat buddy when I was younger. I still miss him so much. I’m glad you got to love a Bruce too!
Rigby, MoMo, Sauron, Tiger, Doug. I miss all of you.
Death is cruel.
Love with everything you can while you can.
I’m gonna put these onions away now.
Oof this got me I miss my buddy <3
I have that desk and huge books lifting my big monitor. I buildlt a keyboard extender to handle my flight stick and throttle. Not bad for 50 bucks.
Haha it did serve me well, after 5 moves the wood(?) finally broke to the point I couldn’t continue using it.
This wrecked me.

I hate how far away the cat is and how alone it seems that far down :(
I know dead beings can’t feel emotions but I can’t help it.
I walk past your tree every day my sweet Ganon.
Ganon looks so much like Roy, whom I rescued years ago, but had to rehome. I’m sorry for your loss.
Nebelung?
I’m 42 and have my first pet since I graduated high school and moved out, leaving our family dog with my parents, and I’m already dreading this. I love her so much and it’s weird knowing this is just something I/we all sign up for.
Damn, that was unexpected.
Neo passed almost five years ago and we still accidentally call his little nephew by his name all the time.
Boris, Tu-Ba-Bou, Miss Moneypenny. You were so very loved.
Whiskers, Salem, Boots, Telemain. ❤️
