My blackie Boo is sitting on my lap right now as I type. He's 18. I know how lucky I am to still have him. I rescued him and his sister Peeka together and she died at the age of 14. Age 6 is way too young to lose them but you did everything right and all you could to give Blackey a good, loving home and the time that he had w/you was quality time for sure. It's never easy to lose one of our furkids no matter their age, I know. Boo lost his girlfriend and best bud Pidgie just last week. I had to have her put to sleep and she was 21 1/2 years old and Boo hasn't been the same since and neither have I. You're right, the house just isn't the same. I feel so bad for you; I know how you're hurting and the only thing that will help to heal the hurt is time. Just know that you did the last act of kindness for Blackey and he loves you even more for it b/c you didn't allow him to suffer. RIP, sweet Blackey and peace to your humans.
