I was with her every minute of her last day. She made it to 18 years and her kidneys failed. We are so so sad.

I know that cats often search for a secluded place to die. But I believe / hope it was comforting to have her humans at her side.

Who else has this special experience of being with your cat in the final moments?

I did and I'm still impacted by it a year and a half later. Can't move on.

Well, you don't have to. But you are allowed to.
