my daughters 6 month old kitten went missing this morning, when he was found, he had fallen from the 9th floor window, died instantly, now buried in my back garden,poor Ginge xx
we had been buzzing about what we're going to do and where we're going in florida, then this, they are heartbroken!
the mother cat, (belongs to his mum) has just had another lot of kittens, should they get another one to keep the sister cat they have company? they wont be rady to leave for a few weeks yet, but should they or shouldnt they? they were their babies!!
its so sad[grouphug]

Thanx Karen, have just looked up an old site someone posted here last year about the death of a pet, started us all off again xx

Sorry to hear about their loss,its so sad when you lose a pet,i would go ahead and have another,nothing can replace the one that they have lost but animals are such a joy to a family,i lost my dog of 22 years 5 years ago but still keep his collar,and have another dog.Hope they do what they feel best for them

Sorry to hear about your sad news Liesa Anna,Shadow our cat is so much part of our familyand I know when we returned from holidays two years ago and Starlight had gone missing we were all heartbroken . Pets are great and unlike kids they never answer back.[grouphug][grouphug][grouphug]

As someone who has a much loved cat - Sid, I can only send my heart-felt sympathy. No idea what they should do regarding a "replacement"...nothing really will, but I would be very tempted to get another one to keep the other cat company.

I know how you feel, we had our cat for 4 years and he went missing new years day this year (my daughters birthday) he never came home we got another cat from the animal rescue 5 months later and he sits in the bath like yours!!
The kids still think he will come home, its the not knowing that bugs me[msnscared]

Oh Leisa, I am so sorry[grouphug]
We lost our cat of 12 years a few years ago, we then moved house and had a new caravan, so nobody to feed and look after a kitten if we had another one[msnsad]
I now have a few stray cats that come into our garden and I must admit, I feed them [msnscared] I know I shouldn't, the sad thing is now I feed these cats, if I did have a couple of kittens of my own, I don't think the strays would be too kind to them[msnmad]

If I was your daughter I definately would have another cat or maybe 2[msnwink]
Hope the other cat is ok.
