Time a healer?

[Emsy75]

New to here.

Had my cat, Pancake, of 20.5 years put to sleep on June 13, 2014. I was a wreck for a while then got better but this last week has been so hard, emotionally. It doesn't help that it fell on a Friday. It's like every Friday 13th is a reminder of the great loss I experienced. She was my best friend. I am lucky to have two other cats who are unique in their ways.

Just had to get that out to others in my situation. Wish I found this site ages ago.

Sorry you have to miss your friend, Pancake. You are taking a good positive step. Write about it. We all been there where you are standing at one time or another.

Hello and welcome

Time is a great healer. But that doesn't mean that time must be a few days, weeks or months. Neither does it mean you won't have bad days.

As Jill says, it helps to talk, even if though a forum like this. Most of us have lost a cat at some stage so have an idea how much you are missing Pancake.

Don't be too hard on yourself x

Thank you both.

My other half was thinking maybe getting another kitten/cat but not ready. Plus my other two have settled quite well since she's been gone. She did rule the roost, even with three legs

It is a huge decision whether to get another cat. You will, of course, never replace Pancake. She was unique. A one-off. That doesn't mean that you can't ever love another cat. Your other two will hopefully accommodate another friend into the fold if introduced slowly and with care.
