My Skye girl was only 4 years old. I adopted her at 1 year old. When I got her no one had gotten her fixed or taking her to a cardiolog

ist for her heart murmur. I did both asap. Her heart murmur ended up being heart disease stage 3. She fought and made it three strong and filled with fun years. Today she went up to her favorite spot to take a nap and passed peacefully in her sleep. I can’t help feeling horrible for her passing by herself without me there with her. I feel like I should have been there. I can’t stop thinking I let her down by not seeing it coming. I wish I had been there for her. I don’t even know how long she had been up there and had already passed. I just thought she was upstairs enjoying the heated room for the afternoon nap she always has. I know she’s got her kitty angel wings now and isn’t suffering, but it’s hard not to be selfish and want her back with me. I don’t know if I will ever find another cat like her. She was so smart and in tune with me. She would even be able to wake me up for work if my alarm didn’t go off. She slept on top of me in bed every night. I can’t imagine sleeping without her now.IMG_3814.jpeg

(Sharing, My Yodaman gained his angel wings on his own terms in his sleep too. I share in the same emotions. I know the shock and hurt. Our babies gained their wings at home surrounded with all the energy of our love in our homes).

For I will whisper into their hearts

I just am….forever and ever and ever."

So sorry to hear your baby is gone. Her last on earth gift to you was to not have you make the decision for her. What you had together will be forever and ever. My others grieved horribly despite my giving them extra loving. It took time, but eventually they showed me the way to adopt another Sphynx. Be the kindest ever to yourself. It was not in your hands to change things. Try to breathe in our Lair-love and find some peace. We all know how it hurts.

Im so sorry to hear of your heartbreak. Try not to be hard on yourself, right now you are the one who needs TLC . It is not selfish to want someone back who brought you love and happiness ( my Wilson gained his wings in 2023 and not a day goes by without me wishing for him warm little presence next to me) . Skye passed peacefully and on her terms. She knew only your love and will never really leave you but live on in your heart and memories . Sending you comforting hugs
