our big black neutered tom, shadow, has gone

We were hoping he would just go sleep one day instead of that dreaded trip to the vets.He started to look old and worn out and then started to be ill-could still climb up the 6ft garden fence though!

Cant complain, he was about 16-18 years old, we had him a a rescue cat from cats protection and they had guessed that he was about 3 years old when we first got him.
Ruled the house from day one-and conned us into picking him when we were looking for a cat, he was all fussy and loving in his pen-got him home and he sat on the electric box with his back to us for a week!
Really was my dads cat and hes devestated and the dog cant understand where hes gone, even my 2 girls are quiet.

sorry to hear of your loss,as a pet is always 1 of the family.

at least you can take heart that he had a long happy life(if thats any consolation to you)

Aww sorry to hear about that Paws. 16-18 years old? thats a ripe old age that, good for a rescue too, he was clearly enjoying life

Two of our rabbits went over the Christmas period, both due to old age but we still have their three children

which makes it a little bit easier I guess but will still miss them.

sorry to hear about this. i had a cat like that. he was huge cat (just muscle) weighing over a stone and was scared of nothing. every dog to walk past the house when he was there would run away scared!!

Probably the most difficult decision any pet owner has to make that... but then we let these fuzzy beggars into our lives knowing that such a day may come.

When all's said and done, they're worth it though.
