Edit: I want to thank everyone for their kind comments. I had a few good cries reading them. My family and I are heartbroken but we will be okay. We have for other cats to continue loving. It all happened very suddenly so please pay attention to your furry ones behavior to try and catch stuff before it gets too late.

    My condolences. She looks really happy and well-cared for in that pic.

    I have 4 cats of my own, two of which are sisters and approaching 15 years of age. They’re in good health still, but I dread the day…

    It sounds like she had a lot of fun in your home. I try to remember things like that when I’m feeling a loss like this.

    Sweet dreams, Momo. May you have all the toys and chirp to your hearts content in the beautiful land you now belong to. You will be missed and loved, but you’ll have your people again some day 💖

    Is Momo a reference to ATLA? she’s beautiful, and I with the chirping I can definitely see why she’d have that name if it is

    “The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That’s the deal.”

    - CS Lewis

    It’s so hard to lose someone you love, but it’s written into the contract from the moment you let them into your heart. I’ve lost a couple cats now, and when I feel myself getting sad while thinking of them, I allow myself that moment to process, but then am sure to remind myself of how lucky I am to have had something in my life that was so great that it could still make me feel that way, years later. It takes time to get there, but I think it’s what they’d want.

    My condolences to you, Momo is a true beauty.

    My cat Ascii has already informed us that she isn’t waiting for us on the rainbow bridge. Something about, “you guys can catch up later. I got places to be.”
