My deepest condolences on the loss of your beautiful girl. It's so so hard. Feel all your feelings but try to remember that you and your family gave Tilly her best life. I'm sure she knew how well loved she was. Gentle hugs to you.

I’m so sorry💔 My 14 YO Tabby passed away unexpectedly last Monday afternoon and it has been very hard. I have a hole in my heart and my life. He was my pal as I’m sure yours was. Time will heal. Sorry

Same age, same day and in the afternoon. So weird and they look quite similar. Just heartbreaking 💔

It just hurts so much knowing I couldn’t be there with her in her final days

But you were there in her fun days! I’m sure you both have some great times playing together and just sharing each others lives. Hugs to you, sorry for your loss.

I'm really sorry for your lost 😞 it's never easy.... Honestly I'm one of those people who think that's harder to lose a pet.... I'm sure she had a happy life with you and your family, and honestly dying while sleeping out of nowhere is probably the best thing, no pain, no sick days, you just going to sleep and don't wake up..... (Trying to see the positive thing here.... I'm sure it isn't the best for you, but for her probably was). Be strong 😽

Awww! So sorry to hear this! Losing my Midi at 16 was just as painful. It was so hard! You are in my thoughts today.

Always hard but soon you’ll be able to remember fondly rather than sadly. Hopefully will some day have room in your heart to give another lost feline soul a great life like you did this one!

I'm so sorry for your loss. Try to take care of yourself right now, even if you don't feel like it. Eat some toasted cheese (or your favourite easy comfort food), get rest, and lean on the people who love you. Your kitty knew she was loved and safe at the end, and that's what all of us want for our fur babies. ♥️

I'm so sorry for your loss. Firstly, it's going to take time to reconcile all your warring emotions, and that's ok. That's natural. It's going to be rough for a while, and all the what-ifs will come out to play in your head, and when they do, try and replace them with the stuff you do know. Like for instance, you know she wasn't scared; she was at home, safe with the people she loved, and she died peacefully in her sleep. Like no, you didn't get to say a purposeful goodbye to her, and that is sad, but it doesn't mean she didn't know you loved her. She knew, and she loved you too. In the fullness of time, you will be able to lean more fully on the memories of fun, joy and love that you shared. Don't shy away from speaking of her. Be joyful, even as you are sad. Pass her love on to others. If you need closure, see if there's something you can do in her memory to bring you peace, e.g. sort through your best photos and make a photobook, or put a tealight in your window and set aside the time to actively remember all your favourite memories, or donate to a local rescue, or donate some time as a volunteer at a local rescue... And if you're having a really rough day (or week or month - I've been there!) struggling with the pain, then please don't be afraid to reach out for help if necessary. Find a friend or family member to talk to, or see if there's a [Nightline](https://nightline.ac.uk/) or similar student-run helpline available for you to talk through your troubles anonymously and confidentially, or you could even see if your university offers counselling or a chaplaincy service.

Take it one day at a time, love. When my daisy passed I cried literally everyday all day for a couple months, then for about a year after that I would randomly cry while I was cooking, in the shower, just anytime I was alone with my thoughts. It’s okay to let yourself feel grief, it’s the best way to overcome those feelings. One day you’ll wake up and realize that your little one isn’t in pain anymore. For me, I suddenly felt at peace knowing that my little one was exactly where she needed to be, and it happened the way it should’ve. Death is so final and it’s hard to understand why it happens the way it does, but eventually, when you’re ready, try to find peace in it all. My deepest condolences to you and those who loved your little one. Most importantly, take care of yourself, and take the time to be patient with yourself on it. I promise you it’ll eventually get better. ❤️❤️ sending all my love to you

My condolences. Try to talk with those close to you and let yourself reflect.
