Topic: Sad day for me today. My sweet Orangie is gone.

Additional Comments:

Orangie had a severe stroke late yesterday.  He had just eaten and was heading for the living room and suddenly he stopped and just got limp.  I took him in today and had him put to sleep. He couldnt hold his head up or stand.  Out of the 4 cats we've had over 40 years he was the sweetest cat.  

Here are some pics from the first week he came (12 weeks old) to keep Nermal company and the last photos I took of him enjoying the warm sunshine.

Serialmom, I'm really sorry that you've lossed your precious little friend.  I know it really hurts to lose a beloved animal, esp. suddenly like that.  My parents just had to put their black lab to sleep after 15 years and they took it hard.  He was around longer than most of the grandkids, went on vacations with us and was always there for the Christmas gathering, LOL.  Hope you feel better in time!  My sympathies.

Oh, I am so sorry.  How sad for both of you.  I had an orange cat once.  His name was Murray.  He was so different than any of the other cats I ever had.  Seems his orangeness gave him an attitude!

So sorry for your loss, I'm an animal lover too, and they really do leave their pawprints on your heart. May you find comfort in your memories of your friend. My thoughts are with you.

I am so sorry to hear about your little friend Orangie. That little face in those photos is gorgeous. He was very lucky to have found you, and I bet he had a great life with your family (that is why he was such a sweet cat). It is always hard when we say goodbye to our animal friends. They ask nothing of us but kindness, and give so much in return. I know you must be feeling sad, but think about the good times Orangie had with you. He couldn't have asked for more.

I'm so sorry, serialmom.  I've been through the same thing a few times.  I would love to have a pet, but at the same time I don't know if I want to go through that again.  My dogs were my babies and  it was horrible when I had to make the decision to have them put to sleep.  I do know how you feel.

Thank you everyone for the kind and sympathetic words.  I know many of you have some little critter that you love, not in place of humans but in addition to them. I put his young pictures in because that is what should be remembered, that cute face and those pink toes.  He was so slim I called him a little snakey.  Who knew he would ever be 20 lbs of sweetness.   We take them in and plan to give them the best life possible.  It seems to work just the opposite.  They enhance our lives. 

Thank you again.    You people are the best.

OMG I am soooo sorry. The loss of a pet is a loss of a family member. I know how sad you must be. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,love leaves a memory no one can steal. May the wonderful memories of your sweet little friend comfort you.

Aww I am so sorry.   He looks alot like my Taylor who died before Christmas.   It is such a shock to have it happen so suddenly, I feel your pain.   Looks like Orangie loved the life he lead from your pictures!

Serialmom, I am so sorry.  Orangie was certainly a love of a cat and he had a wonderful life that you provided for him.  He was blessed to have you as his 'mom.'

SM, I've certainly been there.  Still miss Ingy and Bertie like crazy even though they've both been gone for years.  I'm so sorry about Orangie, I can see from the pictures what a wonderful companion he was.

serialmom, I am so sorry about Orangie.  What a beautiful cat!  It's so sad to lose a family member.  Our first cat, Samantha, had three strokes...bounced back from the first two, but the last one was too much for her, and we had to have her put to sleep.  That was 11 years ago, but we still miss her so much.  I've always wanted an orange cat, but ended up with another gray one.  Take care.
