Ashley,
It is always sad to lose something that we have cared for and nurtured, whether it be a dog, cat, bird, hamster, or even a frog. And to lose Cream in such a tragic way makes it even harder. Our dogs (who we love dearly) got to one of our hamsters once while we were on vacation, and we lost our Evelyn. But I knew in my heart that they were doing what comes naturally, as was your cat.
I'm sorry your heart hurts. Mine hurts for you. I hope today will be a better day.
