Slick,
I know all too well the feeling of the empty house. The habits that develop with senior kitties, and prescriptions from the pharmacy still coming in. The silence of my house after Binx left me was so impossible to handle that I stayed with my mother for a week. I can still remember the little oily stain on my counter top from Tex's medication.
Frankly, I am not sure hearts ever heal from these types of losses. I know the pain diminishes somewhat (though at this very moment, it is hard to believe my own words) with time.
Like Gary said, sometimes I wonder if my cat herd is so that I can never feel the total silence that a passing brings. But, even with so many, I feel the loss deeply, I might just be fooling myself.
Be kind to yourself, in any way possible. The world needs you and your heart. There is much work still to be done.
Slick, I just saw this and want you to knwo that I am thinking about you and hope you realize that what you did was in his best interest.
You gave each other the best possible love and companionship.
Hugs and slugs.:(

Be gentle with yourself, take whatever time you need to grieve.
*hugs* *hugs* *hugs*
I'm very sorry to hear this news. :( Max was a very special cat, and he will be missed. Rest in peace Max. {{HUGS}} to you.
I'm so sorry about Max. He was a handsome boy.
RIP Max. You were such a handsome man. Run free and play hard at the bridge :love:
I bet Sir Max is already on the lookout for the perfect kitty for you too. I know he wouldn't want you to be sad. He loved you so very much too you know? :love:Quote:

Hang tough.:love:
Slick-
I'm so sorry to hear about Prince Max. I just read your post about him passing and how it went. I'm at work and I have tears in my eyes. Just reminds me of my Anika passing and it's so hard to deal with and it's been 1 year and 2 months now. It does get easier but you still miss them. I'm glad Max was able to go at home. My prays are with you during this hard time. If I can be of any help or anything just let me know.
Melissa
I'm just now catching up with this thread and I am so sorry to hear that your beloved Max has gone to the Rainbow Bridge.:(
I know how empty a house can feel when a cat is no longer there after so many years with you. I am sure that Max will help you find a new kitty to love like my Samantha helped me find my two girls.
I know he his. Story to follow but for now I want to thank you all again for you heartfelt posts.:love:Quote:

Just before Christmas I heard that she passed away from bone cancer :( and her five cats are looking for their second furever homes. There is one cat by the name of "Max" and he is a MH red orangie boy - extremely friendly I'm told. Hmmmm, could this be a sign??
I would think dear friend, that Prince Max would not want you to wait one more day to give the same solid loving home to another kitty. Absolutely nothing - nothing - can ever replace Prince Max - but there are so many wonderful kitties still with us that need loving care and a good home.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could find homes for every single one of them. What a great world that would be - all of that love going around!
Everyone would respect your decision.
:love::love:
What Gini said. :love:
Just one? ;)
Maybe this Max has a kitty buddy there that he was really close to.
