Title Trier / Germany: Last breathes on a sunny afternoon
Description Hello all,

this is one of the last pictures of our beloved tomcat Moritz. He suffers from an incurable cancer and will soon rach cats´heaven... maybe this week already.

Fortunately the sun came out during the last few days, so he can do, what cats can do best: Snoozing on a warm place.

Dear Moritz, we already miss you deeply

Trier / Germany: Last breathes on a sunny afternoon

Hello all,

yesterday, on Good Fryday, we buried our beloved family member Moritz.
Rest in Peace. Our love is with thee and we shall not forget you.

May you lie down in a sunny place now forever.

Geko, you'll always have these sweet memories of Moritz. Sorry to hear he is no longer with you!

Geko, so sorry to hear of your family's loss. As I look at your photo of Moritz, I look up, across my living room, at portraits of two of my own cats whom I laid to rest in recent years. I can feel how much you miss Moritz in the depth of my own feelings for Ringo and Madhu. My deepest sympathies to you and your family. I'm glad you had the chance to take parting portraits, too.

Thank you all for your suppot and words of comfort.

I had never thought before, that one could miss his pet so deeply. But I had to learn, that you are fallig ionto a deep hole, that you have to struggle out.

Thank you very much, this consolation is of great help and is deeply admired .

And yes, it is good having shared these last days together.....

Georg

A month ago my beloved little dog Leyla went to dogs' paradise. She has followed us from Costa Rica to Colombia, France, and now Senegal, a perfect partner for the last 14 years. I didn't know either that it would affect me as much. A great photo says it all about love, thanks for sharing! Cheers, Grégoire.
