Pets are pets and cats suck, but....

I just lost the coolest cat ever, who was with me from 19-35 years old. Cat thought he was a dog, played fetch and all. In a week he went from himself, to lethargic. Last day, his belly got distended. He never showed pain. At 6am yesterday he cried out for the first time. I woke up, along with my SO and we petted him as he fought for about 2 minutes, then silence.
Aside from my dad, my big cat (fat arse and happy) has been a part of my entire adult life. I am fine at work, but coming home and seeing his spots, without him, is hard. And the other dog and cat seem a little off kilter. Really sucks. Just saying...

It does suck. Sorry for your loss. And your other pets will grieve and look for the deceased pet for a while.

Sorry to hear that man.
Cats get a bad wrap but they can be cool.

I'm very to hear that. I also have a cat that thinks he's a dog and is amazing and I can't imagine how sad I'm going to be when he's gone.

Some cats are cool (had one that would fetch as a younger one but then got lazy) and some are the devil.
Sorry for your loss. Pets can be like family members.

Cat thought he was a dog,
No they don't, I've never came across a cat that acted even remotely like a dog.
Also they try to play up being cat owners against owning a dog but will do it by saying their cat acts and thinks it's a dog... Da frick?

Despite the anti cat meme that's so popular (and funny) they can be awesome. My parents have a cat that is cool as shite. Be happy you had such a great time with him for so long.
just have to let time do its thing making you feel better.

Cats can be awesome. Sounds like yours was.
No surprise that the other pets are taking it hard. A member of their pack is missing.

My parents have a cat like that. He's awesome.
Sorry for your loss. 16 years is a hell of a good run though.

BC I have a cat that acts like a fkn CAT. Not dog-like at all. My big boy was as close to a dog as possible. I just lost a friend of 16 yrs so back the frick up.

If loosing a pet doesn't suck, then there is something wrong with you or your pet. Love the people and pets still in your house. It will get better.
