Spice the cat-sadly passed away

[peaceandquiet1]

I posted recently about Spice when he was reluctant to eat and got lots of help and advice. Sadly despite the best efforts of family and vet Spice succumbed to his heart disease yesterday and is now buried in the garden near his brother Sugar. We are devastated to lose him and he has left the most enormous hole in my heart. I loved him so much, as did my husband and three children. RIP Spice gone but never forgotten.

Thank you all so much, really helps reading all the posts, and so sorry to all others for their losses. I am utterly devastated at losing him but I am also grateful for the privilege of 16 years of love from a cat which was almost human. Have never cried so much. He was a larger than life character, a charmer, with "cattitude" as the vet put it. So hard to sleep when he is not there under my arm or at our feet.

Oh i am so sorry. It's devastating to lose a beloved animal, but remember he's at rainbow bridge now. Every time I see a rainbow I always think "they've all come to say hello", and I have a little chat with the gang. I've got tears welling up now.

Huge ((((HUGS)))) and RIP beautiful Spice. xxx

Sorry to read about your loss, OP. Huge hugs for you and your family. I lost one in August to kidney failure and the gaping hole is awful, I know. xx

 

[Cavalier]

So sorry to hear of your loss. They become such a large part of your life and leave a gaping hole when they have gone. This does eventually full with all the good memories and you will remember him with love and happiness rather than the overwhelming sadness you feel now.

The children want another cat, and I suppose, so do I, but Spice was so much a one off, I am scared of having another, because it feels disloyal (daft I know) and also I am afraid it won't be like him. We had such a routine, a cuddle every night, then he would sleep at our feet, and often come back in for a cuddle during the night. I would hear his little feet padding along then he would just launch himself onto the bed and purr so loudly. During the day he would distract me constantly by wanting affection. The sadness has been totally overwhelming, as all of you so obviously understand. Please let him be at peace happily purring somewhere lovely. Oh Spice you were so much more than a cat to me.
