A Short Post for a Sad Reason

[unforth]

I wasn't going to post anything today. Okay, that's a complete lie. I was going to do a long post, but then some fricken Changeling thing came up, and I spent 45 minutes writing an e-mail instead. Grumblegrumble, that's not how I wanted to spend my morning. Anyway, I no longer have time to do a long post. But I wanted to collect some condolences for a ...sort of... family member.

This morning, my uncle's cat Mustard Seed had to be put down. She'd been ill for a while, and had had a leg amputated a few months ago. She's was the sweetest little fluffy black cat I've ever known, and I spent many happy mornings with her curled up on a pillow next to my head. She was 10 or 11, I'm not sure which.

I'm surprisingly sad about this, considering I haven't seen Mustard Seed in about 8 years. It's weird. And my uncle is apparently quite sad, so...ah well, I dunno. :)

Hope folks have a good day...

I'm sorry about your uncle's cat. :(

And that was an awesome e-mail! ^_^

It's very hard to lose a kitty. My condolences for your uncle. My parents are still mourning Hestia, and she's been dead nearly a half year. I still expect to see her when I go home. Pets are the best family members (except for the inevitable, unfortunate sofa incidents).

Well, I'll just echo what others have said about the email. It read quite well. As to Mustard Seed, I understand what it is like to lose a family pet, even one you've not seen in a while. It sucks ass. You have my condolences.

My condolences on the loss of Mustard Seed. I really understand and sympathize, if I think about my cat too much (I put her down two years ago, she was 16) I start to cry.

I'm so sorry -- poor kitty! I like the name Mustard Seed. I think my favorite kitty got eaten by a wild animal when it got outside, so that was quite sad!

I'm sorry. I am preparing myself for the loss of my kitty...she is 13/14, and really getting skinny and old. :(

Hope everything gets better!
