Your Pet Loss Stories

'You're Missing My Beloved Cat'

by Clair
(Kansas)

I don't know what to say. You left me with no regrets.
But everyday I regret letting you go.
You were a part of me, a part of my soul. You still are.
It's hard to believe you're really gone,
That your never going to lay in my arms again.
Sometimes I feel like I see you. In the corner of my eye.
But it's never you.
It never will be.
Never again.
That's the worst part. Knowing you're gone.
I can't even look at your picture
It hurts too much.
Just saying your name fills me with sadness.
You were my everything.
We got a new cat, her name is Gracie.
I love her, but she will never be you.
How am I supposed to get over you?
Everything in this house reminds me of you.
From my ponytails. To the kitchen couch.
I still don't know why you had to leave me.
All I ever asked was that you would be okay. But that way never granted.
I sometimes think there is no God.
What is the reason for taking the thing that means the most to a kid?
I didn't deserve this. No one does. But here is my goodbye, the one I could never say,

Snuggles, my baby girl
The thought of living on without you is just too hard. I've done okay so far but I miss you so much. I know you're in a better place. But god I wish you were here with me. You will always fill a part of my heart, as long as I shall live. And we will meet again, on my final day. Until then, goodbye my baby girl. You will be loved and cherished forever and always.
