Life comes with no money-back guarantees or warranties, hun. It's not fair, but that's how it is.

I hope you eventually feel better and get past this dark cloud, Ichi.

And that's not me belittling your loss.
Our own cat, Sugar Plum is 13. I see the changes old age makes in her, and I remember when she used to tear the place up as a kitten.
I've lost so many animal members of my family, I've accepted the fact that I'm gonna lose everyone I care about in my life at some point. None of us have to like it, but we
do all have to accept it.
