I thought many of you could empathise for my loss of a pet. But I only had the cat for less than a year. In the posts above some had their pets for over a decade.

I'm pleased I didn't discover my cat injured because there probably would've have been anything I could've done. & if there was it would've cost $$$$.

Some people just don't understand the Loss of a Loved pet.

I'm still having trouble understanding myself. For example cats don't talk, don't have a sense of humour, are uneducated.... yet they can be funny, & entertaining company. What is with the human condition that we relate to these animals? Now to get real philosophical the reason we get attached to their animals is because we imprint ourselves onto them. We anthropmorphise pets & attach feeling & emotions to pets that they don't really have.
Anyway, I've largely recovered now. I've just got to get used to the fact I don't have to leave my window open anymore. Not sure if I'll get another cat, but one may just turn up.. you never know.
