Since Kylie Cat first got sick last December, she was a real fighter.Do not go gentle into that good night,Old age should burn and rave at close of day;Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
We finally had to put Kylie Cat down, and we were heartbroken. It was the kind thing to do, as she had become pretty miserable, and we had foreseen it, but it's a gut-wrenching experience nonetheless. She will be missed. Every time I come home, I expect to see two sweet kitty faces at the door, happy to see me, and it's a very difficult adjustment to see just one. Such a funny little cat, full of personality.

Oh, I'm so sorry! It's hard to say goodbye to such special friends.
So sorry, Jodi. Thinking of you guys this week.
Jodi, I'm so sorry about Kylie. Best wishes to you.
So sorry to hear about your loss. They are such great friends and it's hard not to see their familar faces of comfort every day. I'm sure she would say what a wonderful life she had with you.
*BIG HUG*
So sorry to hear about Kylie Cat. :(
Poor cat, sorry for you Jodi :'(
Oh, no. :( I'm so very sorry for your loss. We lost our sweet Stewart in May -- I agree that making the decision to put a loved kitty to sleep is gut-wrenching, even when they're very sick. I know that no living thing can live forever, but it just feels like such innocent little creatures don't deserve death! Maybe Stewart and Kylie are playing together now, in a giant room in the sky full of laps and yarn.
I'll be thinking of you and hoping the little kitty-sized hole in your heart is healed soon.
I'm so sorry, Jodi. Losing a friend is so hard, even when you're prepared. I hope she meets friends along her way.
Oh, I'm sorry about your lovely kitty.
:(
It's hard to lose the spirit of the house...it's shocking how empty it is without them.
That's sad. What a wonderful life she had with her human family. I hope all those memories bright light to your heart as the days go by.
Peace~

Oh, Jodi, I'm so sorry. Thinking of you and sending hugs your direction.
This is the first time I've ever been to your blog, and my eyes are full of tears for you :( I love my two cats so much...I understand. They are such dear, sweet friends.
Hugs!!!
Jodi, I just found your blog for the first time and your Kylie reminded me so much of our dear beloved Miss Tibby, who we had to say goodbye to last year. Oh, my heart aches for you; it is such a painful loss. I am also left with one cat now, who seems lost as well. We try to honor her spirit every day and please accept all the wishes I am sending your way for comfort in Kylie's loving memories.

I am so sorry, Jodi. I know Kylie was a special kind of kitty! I still look for my Earnest often, though he will be gone 5 months on Tuesday - we are better to have known them:) Take care!

I'm really sorry Jodi. It's the hard part about loving our animals. I still miss Carson Kitty. You will always miss Kylie. She's part of the fabric of who you are.
