This is my cat Belle, this specific photo is about 3 years old. She is currently 17, but today had been diagnosed with very aggressive lung cancer. She will not make it to Christmas, and we have decided to put her down tomorrow to spare her the pain of what is to come.
I don’t know why I’m posting this. She’s spent the whole day with me in my bed since coming home from the vet. She hasn’t left once, not to drink, not to eat, not at all. Her breath is becoming more labored, and a part of me wonders if she’ll make it through the night. I suppose that doesn’t really matter anymore.
Thank you to whoever read this, it means a lot.

I’m so sorry.
Poor girl, she is absolutely adorable in this picture. I hope she gets some good cuddles and pets tonight.
Lots of love and hugs to you both.
I’m so sorry for you both! What a sweetie. She is lucky to have such a great human by her side ❤️
I’m so sorry. Belle is beautiful. We can never have them for long enough can we? They come into our life and want nothing but to be a part of it and forever would be too short of a time to keep them. She’ll be waiting for you over the rainbow bridge.
I had to do the same for my cat. I was just petting him for about 2 hours straight, and I even had all of my friends say a proper goodbye to him.
I’m sorry, buddy. Be strong. One day the sorrow will go away and you will only remember the good moments with your friend. Hugs.
2nd. I’ve been there. I still miss my boy, but now I think of happy things when I remember. You can do it. It’ll be okay. The love you share is worth it.
I’m sorry to hear this 🫂
Eyes bright,
claws sharp,
tail held high.
Go keenly into the mist, old warrior.
Valhalla waits for you.
I lost my dear friend over 20 years ago and it still hurts. Sorry for your loss.
Beautiful cat, sorry you are having to deal with this. I lost my 2 year old husky during a surgery 6 weeks ago. Just have to remember all of the good times that we’ve had with them.
Give her lots of love and be with her for the last moments.
Big hugs to you and Belle. I hope you take comfort in the fact you are with her in her final moments.
This happened to me 2 years ago, so I know it’s really really tough. We put our old boy Stanley down on Christmas Eve and it was devastating. He was a long haired tuxedo that looked almost exactly like your sweet Belle.
I hope you take comfort in knowing that her last moments will be right by your side, where she likely feels the most at peace. And I also hope that you take care of yourself, take the time to grieve, and lean on your loved ones when you can.
I’m glad Belle found you. I’m sure you loved each other, and that means everything.
She will remain with you in spirit, forever. She will merge within your toroidal flow under the form of memories, and her vibrations will be felt in your heart every time you remember her eyes and soft fur.
Rest in peace Belle.
