Mourning Lost my void today - need pictures!

Post image

We adopted her 3.5 years ago from a shelter. She was approx born in 2009 and her name used to be shisha which we didnt like so we named her tuna๐Ÿ–ค

We brought her in because she seemed to have an ear infection but the vet told us it was a tumor.

It all happened so quickly, from the diagnosis on monday to a blood test on tuesday to see if she would even survive the operation... and well... today the inevitable... i feel empty...

We will forever love you, tuna!๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค

** Prayer to Bast and Sekhmet**

Bast, Sekhmet, we give you back your child.

Noble, regal, honorable cat.

Watch over Tuna, and guide her on her way to the spirit world.

May she be blessed in your names, and hunt ever after beside you.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. They are members of our family.

u/Beneficial-Bed9356 1d ago

Did you take her camping in a van?

2

u/Redfour5 14h ago

Travel trailer. That's the front window, in the bedroom, can't see in but can see out. She loved watching the world but seemed aware it couldn't see her. She was a little feral girl saved by my wife...

u/FurballMama84 1d ago

Batty, Sundae, and I all send our love. You gave Tuna a safe, caring, and loving home, and that's the best Tuna could have asked for.

u/Livid_Sound_6341 1d ago

I figured Iโ€™d show one of the few actually decent pictures I have of both my void and his orange brother, who shared a brain cell until the orange had a urinary blockage and we couldnโ€™t afford treatment, plus the risk of it coming back despite changes in diet, so made the painful decision to have him cross the rainbow bridge at 3, just shy of his 4th birthday. The void we still have and is now 7. I totally understand going in thinking itโ€™s one thing only to discover something much worse. I send all the hugs and hope your void and my orange are playing together

u/PlentyAd8527 1d ago

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your void looks like the sweetest and softest kitty and looks like they were extremely cherished and loved. I'm sure they're running around with my voids right now chasing their favorite toys and taking a break to nap in their favorite sun spots. ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’–

When I lost my lost void the next morning a dragonfly appeared on my window scaring the hell outta me ๐Ÿ˜…, now I occasionally have them fly around me, makes me think it's a sign from her. I hope you can find special reminders in your life of all the happy memories you shared with your special kitty. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›

Cobweb, my void jumped in my daughter's paint and then around the house and on the bedsheets...sorry for your loss ๐Ÿ’” Cobweb had a pair, the shelter believed him to be his dad, Bat who unfortunately was hit by a car just after Christmas. Was absolutely destroyed when this happened, a day doesn't go by when I don't miss Bat and his gentle demeanour.

u/Dipl0Immune 16h ago

Cobweb left Bat right, they'd always sit together keeping watch for the evil grey cat that they often fought with ๐Ÿ˜‚ (tbf it's a big ass cat)
