  • You're hanging your cats?

  • Need to find out what they weigh in order to get the dose of anti-flee stuff correct.

    Higgs 4.83 kg
    James 4.62 kg
    Tesla 3.31 kg

  • A terrible terrible awful accident has just happened and the little kitten is dead.
    I don't think I'll ever forgive myself.

  • What's happened?

  • OMG Miss Mouse. What's happened?

  • Oh no, what happened Alex?

  • Oh god what's happened!?

  • I have spoken to Alex and she is distraught; I have managed to calm her a little but she is devastated.

    The small kitten drowned in the washing machine. She'd already checked once and somehow it was determined and got back without her realising.

    I have told her not to blame herself, thIs is a terrible accident that could have happened to anyone - I know, (but there for the grace of god go I with my cat when it was a kitten).

    Sending huge ((((hugs)))) to Alex. RIP kitten,

  • Poor little guy :-( RIP kitten.

    Poor Alex, she must feel awful. A terrible accident, but it's so easy to lose track of where kittens get to. It could've happened to anyone.

  • Alex it's never easy when these things happen, but as everyone has said it was an accident. I had a similar thing happen with a kitten that my cat had many years ago.

    Don't beat your self up and let us know if you need to talk.

  • Ah mate! Kittens really will be stupid - despite the very best efforts of the people who look after them. Try as you might, you can't keep a daft cat out of trouble if that's what it wants to get itself into. What a horrible thing to happen to you. Poor kitten. x

  • Thank you all. I feel like a terrible human being. He has never to my knowledge gone in there before. I was rushing around getting ready to go in to hospital today. Would like to be shot right now instead. :(

  • Although nothing I can say will help you feel better: I would suggest that you go give Moses & Maia a big cuddle. They still need you & will both be waiting when you return from hospital.

    As will the rest of us x

    I would also like to add that you can't feel any worse than you do today, and if you feel at rock bottom the only way to go is up. Go into hospital and I am sure they will help you through this too. Nothing the hospital can do to you can make you feel any worse, so go with the flow and get better.

    (((Hugs))))

  • Alex, ah shit. :(

  • Know how it can feel to lose animals that you are caring for. Real gut punch. You get so attached to them.

    Chin Up Alex, dont let this make you feel bad. You gave it some love and it died in the joyous excitement of its youth.

  • Alex - ginormous hugs coming your way, keep your chin up xx

  • Alex.. Nothing more than a terrible accident.. Don't blame yourself.. Love.

  • Oh dear, that's terrible. No words.

  • Oh Alex, i cant stop my tears...this is horrible time, i know. It brings all the memories of us loosing our little girl. I was in so much pain I thought it will never go away. I know exactly how you feel. Be strong! Love you!

  • Thank you guys. I know I need to forgive myself, I know it was an accident, and hopefully I will in time. Trying to stop visualising the events of yesterday and muster enough strength to pack my things for a long stint in hospital, in itself, in different ways, several shades of awfulness. What a mess. :(

  • If it weren't for your ability to navigate mess you probably wouldn't be you. It's days like this when it all happens at once that make us question what it's all about. You're paying the price for being the type of person who gives a shit about the people and animals around you. Spreading yourself super thin while trying to hold it together in the most basic way at ground level. That silly, stupid, curious cat could have laid a stunt like this on you at any point - they do that - things like this happen to cats all the damn time. But noooo it had to happen yesterday. Straw that broke the camels back? I hope not - you don't deserve it.

    Daft kitty is kicking itself for being daft. Missmouse needn't beat herself up anymore. Concentrate on wellness. The capital's cyclists and future generations of feline idiots would prefer you in one piece. x

  • You must spread some reputation around before giving it to Wrongcog again.

    Brilliant post.

  • Wrongcog, amazing words. Helps so much. Thank you.
    Reading all the lovely comments above repeatedly to comfort myself.

    I am now booked to go in first thing tomorrow morning.
    Does anyone know whether you can buy Rapha hats and neck warmers in Brewer Street club? Not only did all my laundry get covered in [i can't bring myself to say it] but my fucking merino hat shrank.

    Then today my MacBook packed up too so I can't order replacements on line or fix it in time. I know it sounds insignificant - just panicking.

    Jesus, I'm not a pessimist or religious but I do wonder if I've done something in a previous life to deserve this amount of BS and pain. I just need to keep busy today so I don't eat up my head.

    Sorry if tmi. Just need to keep sharing right now.

  • Miss mouse, soo sorry to hear about the accident I know a little of how you feel as I broke a puppies legs playing with him when I was 18, I felt a like hell and that I'd nev forgive myself, it was an honest accident despite my good intentions, the pup was fine in the end but the day after he had completely forgiven me and slept peacefully in my lap for hours, we're still great friends despite him now being very old and grey!

    As a result I'm 100% sure the little kitten is looking down on you and sending its love with no hard feelings and nothing but love for you and appreciation of the lovely time he had with you, focus on getting better, kitty is in a better place :)
