Monday night I lost one of my cats, Edgar
We brought him and his friend Lazlo home in November of 2009. He was 6 and Lazlo was 4 when we got them. For the first few days they were very skittish, mostly hiding under and behind things, but gradually getting comfortable and spending time with me. In the 11 years since, he has become my constant companion and snuggle buddy. He gave me a lot of help in my knitting
And was also enjoyed helping me work from home
and relaxing in the sun
Our other two cats, Lazlo and Punky, have been wandering around today, sniffing all the places he mostly hung out over the last few days and looking lost. I know exactly how they feel. I miss him terribly.

I’m so sorry. Losing a friend is hard especially one who has become your co-worker. When I lost Hazel, Morgan was deeply affected for quite a while. We lost the kitten part of Morgan permanently. By the time we lost Mollie, I think the cats knew she was really sick. It seemed to be easier for them.

Thank you. I think the others knew Edgar was not doing well too. They’ve been very subdued, and I think they’ve been looking around for him since we came back from the vet.

I’m so sorry!! I lost my cat Sam a couple of years ago and I still miss him. My dog Leroy passed away recently and it’s been horrible without him. They’re not just pets – they’re family. I completely understand what you’re going through. Hugs!!! 🤗

That’s sad news. A friend lost one of her cats a couple of years ago, his sister the week after sat on their lawn and meowed disparingly every day. She was obviously lost without him despite the bickering they often had had. Luckily for my friend and her remaining cat they had each other and lots of cuddles helped.

Our cats squabbled sometimes too, but the other two are very subdued and are looking for him. It absolutely does help to have the others around

He was a great “helper” 🙂 He did have a loving home with us. He and I gave each other a lot of snuggles and had good years together.

It is always so sad losing a loved pet. And I don’t care what anyone says – animals miss their companions just like we do.
