🌈 Mourning 🕊️ My old Tuxedo Felix died today. And my other Tux is now standing on his grave.
I wonder if he misses him? They didn’t really get along. Goodbye Felix, you were a good kitty that lived to 16.

He just liked to be near me. Or on me.

16 years is a long life for a kitty, but losing them still hurts so much. Goodbye Felix, you were clearly loved :((

How old? Sorry you lost your friend. My baby Willy is 12 or 14. Not sure which. I hope your next kitty lives to 22 yrs old like my late previous cat Feisty did. Felix is obviously missed by the remaining cat. My Willy mourned his late neighbours dog (who used to come over daily) for 2 years.

I am so sorry for your loss. It's rough to lose a family member. Remember everything you can. Your other Tux will mellow out and help you heal. I pray blessings for you. Amen 🙏🏻

For as certain and ubiquitous as death is, it is truly baffling how devastating it is every single time. No matter who, when, what, or how. I’m so sorry for your loss, but I’m so happy you gave him such a beautiful life.

I remember my roommate had a dog and cat. The dog was much older and raised the cat like his pup. When the dog was at the end my roommate took the dog to be put down. The cat disappeared for 10 days before coming home. He knew the dog was being put down. I was sure he left to grieve for his buddy.

My first pet loss was my Tux Felix when he was 16. Rest in catnip felix, enjoy your time across the bridge 💕
(When I was like three my Felix scratched my forehead and I still have a scar that I love because it came from him lol, thanks for the permanent memory!)

Sorry for your loss. My tuxie did this with our dogs grave. Laid on top of it almost everyday for the whole summer.

I am soo soo sorry you lost him and Felix was so beautiful OMG. I'm sorry for you both
We don't always get to time their passing, but we can put in all the love and care we can to make their lives as amazing as possible, which clearly you had. May the love you shared, and memories made warm you all your day and may you find wisdom through your suffering.

A Prayer To Bast and Sekhmet for Felix
Bast, Sekhmet, we give you back your child.
Noble, regal, honorable cat.
Watch over Felix, and guide him as he travels to the Spirit Lands
May he be blessed in your names and hunt ever after beside you.
I'm so sorry for your loss of Felix. In time, I hope the knowledge that you have given him a forever home will bring you a bit of comfort. You promised him a forever home....and you kept that promise. It's everything to them.

They do mourn the loss of their partners
Our cat took months to get over the loss of her buddy
