We lost our 17 year old Tomcat about 2 weeks ago, so can really sympathize.
Notre Père qui es aux cieux,
Que ton Nom soit sanctifié, que ton règne vienne,
Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donne-nous aujourd'hui notre pain de ce jour.
Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont offensés.
Et ne nous soumets pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du mal.
Car c’est à Toi qu’appartiennent le règne, la puissance et la gloire,
pour les siècles des siècles. Amen
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

Condolences, LonePalm. We have had to put down several cats. When the time is right, get yourself a rescue cat. Sooner rather than later.
I am so so sorry. ; (
So sorry to hear about that.. Pets are so dear to our hearts!!
Not a cat person, but my condolences.
I know how it feels to lose a family member, two legged or four legged.
What a beautiful cat!
My little calico girl kitty will be 17 next month. She’s still in excellent health.
I’m so sorry about your loss.
I’m sure she will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge, like so many of mine are.
What a beautiful kitty. I’m so sorry.
Words cannot convey the sorrow you are feeling. I can only offer my deepest condolences on your profound loss. Please be comforted in the knowledge your Patches loved you and you will be reunited on the other side of Heaven. Big hugs and much love from Texas.
I love cats...so I, too, understand.
We grieve with you. I have lost so many dear friends of the kitty variety. I said I couldn’t take another loss ... but Miss Kitty, the Tuxedoed princess came into my life anyway. God wnts us to love and these little creatures are sent for our souls. He is in the business of raising us up in the way that we should go, and loving is a big part of it.

Condolences on your loss.
I’m sorry. It leaves a big hole. Had to put down my oldest (19) last October. I’m mostly stoic, but that was very difficult. They are our companions.

Sorry to hear that, LonePalm. My wife and I have had about 12 cats and 4 dogs in the 40 years we’ve known each other. It’s never easy seeing them pass. We still have 3 cats and a dog. Thanks for being a great pet owner.
Sorry for your loss. I’ll give my cat an extra hug tonight.
I am so very sorry for your loss. She was a beautiful cat. I know she will be waiting near The Rainbow Bridge. Take confidence at how happy you made each other. I have 3 cats and 4 dogs and many that went before them. (see tag)
Over my many years, including nearly 20 doing wildlife rehab, I've had the company of well over a score of cats: strays, lost kittens, injured, left for dead, and a couple of wild ones who decided to sample the food and then stay for the show. As you know, every one leaves a hole in the heart when they go. Holes heal, but slowly.
They say shared joy is doubled, and shared sorrow is halved. You have so many FRiends here sharing your sorrow, I hope it is similarly reduced.
I offer a prayer on your behalf and on behalf of Patches, and God Bless.
I am so sorry for your loss. Our fur babies are family and their loss is deeply felt. Prayers for you and yours.
Sorry to hear about your Patches. Patches has gone to a better place and will be waiting for you at the Heavenly Gates. Remember Heaven is not just for people. =)
