I got Casey as a kitten when I was 24 yrs old. I had just moved on my own from Canada to the US to start my career. She was with me through several moves, more animal additions, a husband and two kids.
My 13 yr old has always been very attached to her.
Other then being arthritic and deaf she was doing well. we were on vacation last week. two days after we left I get a call from my MIL. Casey was in distress. She brought her to the vet. vet called me and told me she was in CHF and they couldn't get a temp reading. it was time to put her down.
My sweet MIL held Casey's head as she passed. We are back from vacation today. My heart hurts and I can't stop crying. she was my sweet baby for 19 years.
Casey was a wonderful cat. We always joked we wanted to clone her.
RIP Casey
Hug your fur babies for me:)

I'm so, so sorry. It's so hard to lose our furry friends, especially when we've loved them for so long. Maybe your Casey will find my Buster at the Rainbow Bridge and they can play and be friends. We had to put our boy down in June - he would have been 15 this month.
Take care...

I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like she was a wonderful part of your family. My family just got 2 kittens and I hope they can enrich our lives like Casey enriched yours! I cried for days when my 20 year old cat Whiskers died. It is so hard to lose a beloved pet!

I'm so sorry. My Rocko has been with me through every major life event, but at 16 I know it could be any day she goes. It's so hard to lose those special friends after so many memories.

19 years is a good long life but I know that doesn't really make the loss any easier.

RIP Casey I lost my 16 year old cat last year. I got him when I was in college in my first apartment. As the irresponsible pet owner I was at 19, when I moved out of that apartment I brought him home to my parents. He lived there in the lap of luxury for the next 15 years. When I moved home with my parents a few years ago, he started sleeping back on top of my head as he did as a kitten. He had a great life, and I miss him

Hugs to you! Holding my 20 1/2 yr old kitty as I respond. She is doing just fine but I can't believe she as many months left. I dread what I know is coming. I also have a 15 1/2 yr old lab so she is on borrowed time too.

I'm so sorry! That is so hard! Especially with the amount of your lives you shared together. That is a very long life for a cat and she was obviously well loved and cared for.

RIP, Casey cat. It is obvious that she was very well loved and lived a wonderful life with you. I know that doesn't make your heart hurt any less. Sending hugs to you all.
