I’m drunk. So sorry if this isn’t spellchecked, gramatically correct or interesting to you, but I thought it was nice and worth sharing.
I had to put my cat down today. He’d been my buddy for 13 years. We were very much a team. Nobody in real life knows me without knowing Dresden. Han & Chewie, Ray & Dresden. That kinda thing. His health was in decline for the past couple years, but he still ate and drank regularly and came to me for attention several times a day. I wanted to keep him around as long as the majority of each of his days was happy. Yesterday his health took a severe nosedive.
Tonight many friends and a surprising amount of slight acquaintances from the past 13 years met to celebrate his little cat life and to wish me condolences. It was really very nice. That so many people Showed up to show love and support over something that probably means little to nothing to them in their daily lives and with nothing to gain for themselves and with only hours of notice on a night that they certainly had other things to do… it’s left me quite overwhelmed. It the best way.
People can be really cool.
Good job people.
very sorry to hear this. I’ve lost multiple pets in my life. I know how it feels. You have my sympathies.
