    I'm very sorry for the loss of your cat. He sounded like a great and important part of your life. If he was ok, then I really have no clue how someone could do that to their pet. Why wouldn't they let you and your husband take him?

    I'm terribly sorry for the loss of Cateeto. I lost my cat Smokey of 12 years about a year and a half ago. Wow, 19 years, that's a really long time.

    As for you mother, I got nothing. Sorry.

    R.I.P. Cateeto. Good kitty.

    That's the thing. I have no fucking idea. This huge dispute started. My dad got worked up because of my mom getting worked up. She just flat out denied us. We were going to take him before ANYTHING happened... But what the fuck! We went away on our honeymoon and that's when they did it...

    I just don't even know what to say...

    They say karma comes around I guess.

    For now, I've decided cutting ties with my family is necessary. This was the absolute last straw.

    I hope this doesn't sound childish.

    not at all.....no one needs that kind of negativity in their lives.....

    If the only time she acted like this was about your cat, then I would say it's a bit drastic to cut ties. However, it seems like she has a long history of this, so you have to decide if it's worth it to cut ties with her and your father. As for your mom, some people like to take happiness in other's mishaps and misery. That could be the sign of depression, as I have known two people to act like that who were labelled 'clinically depressed' after seeing a doctor. I'm not saying that is definitely the case, but that story just reminded me of them.

    Why wouldn't they let you and your husband take him?

    Complex answer. Kate's mother is a truly evil, sociopathic soul who will go to any lengths to make her own daughter feel miserable. Believe me, it started a scene when we tried to take him. Although it would have been no sweat off of their backs for us to take him, they insisted on keeping him. The vile way in which her whole family has treated her regarding this whole situation is completely inexcusable and unforgivable.

    I, for one, do not believe in euthanasia of a beloved pet unless he or she is mortally wounded. What makes someone think, for even a second, that they have the right to decide such a thing for a cat? Cateeto was a happy cat. He was not in pain. His murder was done out of sheer contempt and selfishness. He certainly did not have on foot in the grave. He was vibrant and playful right up until the last time I ever saw him.

    but it is not your fault sweetie. you TRIED to take him. you made an effort to at least get him. what i don't understand is why your parents kept him when ou wanted to take him and why your mom couldn't be straight up and honest w/you

    It truly got to the point were we were considering just taking the cat when no one was around, but we had no idea, first and foremost, if he even would take the 60 mile journey well, and also about the consequences it might cause.

    I'm sorry, but you'll have to put your mother down.

    I'm so sorry for your loss....my dog Keiko died at the beginning of the month and its the absolute worse feeling in the world....things are so empty without the little guy around and its amazing how much worse bad things feel when your pet is gone, it makes you realize how much they save you from. Which brings me to my next point; what your mother did is absolutely inexcusable and you should not forgive her until you're ready to do so, but in the meantime, don't let her take from you this time to feel for the loss of your pet by adding tension and anger to your life. Be with your husband and think about Cateeto and how much joy he brought to your life and how he has changed you. I understand what your going through and I hope you'll be okay...I know you'll be okay.

    Be well

    Well-played. I can just imagine the look on her face, in her old age, when the doctor comes in with a syringe and says, "well, you're getting up there in years. We're gonna have to put you down."

    Wow, what a sad sad story. I'm really sorry for your loss and your mother. We can't pick our parents unfortunately. It sounds like she needs help, but I'd say severing ties at least for a while would be a good thing. As someone else said, you certainly don't need that kind of negativity and reminder of what happened now. Also, as someone else said, it's not your fault. How could anyone even imagine such a thing? :( Sending good thoughts your way. :)

    Kate, You poor thing. I feel your pain from the loss of a loved one. You and me both are massive animal lovers, and I can say through experience, after owning at least 20 cats, 7 dogs, 2 horses and some Bulls, it does not get any easier when they go, even after having so many of them die before.

    What you Mother did was terrible. Although I do not know your story with your family in detail, I am pissed at your Mum for doing that. Its just not right, no rhyme or reason, wrong.

    I guess the advice I give to people all the time in regards to loss is to remember all the good times. Sure, you are definitely going to shed tears, but have a laugh inbetween those tears aswell.

    Now I must get off topic and Congratulate Yourself and Jon on your recent nuptials! CONGRATS!! t has been so long since I have joined in on a Girly AET session that im totally out of the loop! Im so happy for you girl! Doesnt being a "wife" feel great!


    And one last thing.... just to make you smile :)
