Sorry to hear that. It's never easy to lose a furry family member.

She had complete renal shut down. Her kidneys just quit working. They couldn't even find a vein to put the sleep chemical in. They had to inject it into her abdomen. That takes longer. I held her until she was gone.

That's rough, went through something similar with our Anatolian Shepherd a few years ago, he had kidney and liver issues, just stopped eating one morning, few hours later he was gone.
So sorry, bud. Prayers your way!
So sorry to hear this Rob.
I know she loved you!
I know she loved you!
Very sorry for your loss. They take a chunk of your heart with them.
I lost both my Shih Tzu in 2024. I held them both while they went to sleep. I had to be there for them but it was a horrible thing to go through.

Sorry Rusty.
Losing our pets is the most gut wrenching thing we can go through. We become so attached to them, and they are such a huge part of our lives. I know you will grieve for awhile, but also look forward to meeting the new one to heal your heart.
Take care Bud.

Thanks yall. This is especially hard because she was decidedly my cat. She would be curled up asleep on me right now. She and Baby Pink Nose usually fought for space. lol

Losing a pet is the worse. So sorry to hear this, Rob. Just know you gave the best life a cat could ever ask for.
Almost same story here with Judy, our Belgian Shepherd. Granted she was old, but she seemed to be just fine in the morning. But by later afternoon....
She was very much afraid of the Vet her whole life, so we had to do an emergency house call, and I held her as she passed. I still have both of my parents, and thus to this very day putting down Judy was the hardest thing I've ever had to do/go through.
So sorry for your loss.
Sorry to read of the loss of your Pussy... Cat
Tiger is the small one eyed cat on the far side. This is how all three usually ended up in the evening. They all know something isn't right.
Tiger and Baby Pink Nose normally cuddled together in front of the electric heater. Baby Pink Nose is wandering around looking for Tiger. She'll go lay by the heater for a minute or two and get back and walk around.

The other cats know that Tiger is missing, sometimes that is the hardest part, seeing them grieve the loss as well.
When I had to let go of one of my dogs about 20 years ago, one of my other dogs that had been very attached to her would look for her every time we went out for a walk for months after, that really broke my heart.

I'm very sorry for your loss Rob. Y'all gave her a good life and she gave back lots of love, I'm sure. No matter how many times we lose one, it never gets easier. 
R.I.P. Miss Tiger.

That's some sad news. Critters are the best therapy, but when they leave the hole left behind can be tough. May the Cat Gods send you a suitable new resident to fill some of the vacuum.

Sorry for your loss my friend, I've had a lot of them little buggers come and go in my 67 years and still think of all the good times with every single one.
Yup. I always tell Kitty that when we meet someone that doesn't like cats, they're off our list. LOL
That’s a great picture of the 4 of you you’ll always have her in your heart and I know she will always love you even after she’s gone to the rainbow bridge
Oh no, I'm so sorry for your loss, Rusty. Saying goodbye to our furry friends is really, really tough. You and Kitty have my condolences.
So sorry to hear this, my condolences go out to you & Kitty. She looks exactly like one I lost in 96, one eye and all.

The loss Leaves a little hole in your heart. I have had the pleasure of owning many animals through my 63 years and it never gets easier when one of them passes, but I know I gave them a good life. I still miss our chickens even.
