I lost my best friend today

He was a 4 year old Chantilly-Tiffany cat who we rescued as a kitten and he was my "Little Buddy".His name was actually Salem but I didn't call him that unless he was in trouble.A car had hit him and he was dead when we found him and it was a horrible thing to see.I had for the past few months letting him roam around outside at night since I believed our usually empty neighborhood was safe for him to explore, he had always returned after only 2-3 hours unharmed until around 11:30pm 10/21/2020 when we found him.There is miles of area for him to roam around in but tonight he had decide to cross the nearby highway(which is usually quiet most of the night) somehow he had lot his reflective collar and I'll never forget this lession.NEVER allow any animal you care about be alone outside no matter what.It only ends in tragedy.The only thing keeping me going now is a strong belief I will see him again...Rest in Peace Little Buddy I will always love you.

Funeral is in 1 hour 50 minutes he was so cuddly and sweet,really need to tell everyone about him.He was a chubby chonk and loved food.He usually sleeps on the living room sofa or on the kitchen table but when the weather grows cold he sleeps in my bed beside me.He's been sleeping with me this past week and it feels wrong not having him here.Every morning like clockwork he'd tap the back of my my head or face with his claws out just enough to scare me.He'd do it anytime he was hungry which most mornings was multiple times.I'm glad I have this place and some others to talk about him.I will never let any animal outside on their own again and I should have stuck to his harness training instead of letting him go off alone.Please everyone who has an outdoor or indoor/outdoor cat keep them inside and never let them wonder alone no matter how safe you think they are.I hope this blog will help people reconsider if they allow cats outside.
 
Funeral was rough and I know he deserved better, never did make time to give him enough attention because I'm selfish and lazy.I'm changing that from now on.Everything feels so raw and I keep looking out hoping to see he's back and it was all a misunderstanding.There is another cat out there every now and then that I mistake for him even though it's less fluffy.He was the best cat anyone could ever ask for he was chatty and a snugglebug and would chatter at the dog instead of hiss because he's funny like that.I'll keep venting here for a long time and think of my buddy every day.

This whole experience has brought me closer to God and I ask everyone who reads this to consider believing in Him.
 
Also for everyone who drives please keep an eye out for any animal pet or not because their lives should be important too.I can't imagine putting anyone else though this pain.
 
It has been 5 days since I lost him, been keeping my routine almost exactly the same except I take better care of myself now and sometimes get out of bed earlier.I think I'll keep using this blog like a diary instead of making new posts at least for now.
 
Tonight will be the 11th day since I lost him,been awhile now since I really broke down.Sending a good morning and good night prayer every day helps so much.
 
*It'll actually be 12 days since it happened,11 days since the funeral but I count the night he left instead of the next day.
 
Tonight will be Day 15,finally went back to his resting place for a few minutes the other day and I don't plan on returning there for many years.Buried a toy mouse close to his spot because I wanted to he only ever knocked it off his nightstand once.It's his night stand because he would eat and drink there. ^_^
 
Dawn of the 22nd day-Still some tears now and then but I know it'll be easier as time passes.I'm lucky to have such a great family and good friends.
 
Afternoon of the 29th day-On the 15th I found a black kitten alot like him and have adopted the little guy.He's a boy and his name is Lazarus.I believe this sweet kitten was sent to me and we all are in love with him.I cried quite abit when I found that kitten. :']
 
Final entry for this particular blog

My life is finally fully back on track now, I know for a fact my little "Laz" played a huge part in my healing and I'll always be thankful I met him that cold windy morning.Here he is on the 2nd most of the time he wears little sweaters mom makes for him to keep him warm since or home can get pretty chilly since its an old house.

    @K3Nv2 I got some cheapies at wallys, that are pretty good, already have lost a few expensive ones (one falls out and gone, can't find) while cutting grass so bought some cheap ones, and of course never lose these cheap ones. (Cheap meaning only $35, compared to air buds which I only have 1 of 2 now)
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    They need to add air tags to they airbuds..

    You would think, esp using bluetooth, not GPS, like a "your getting hot-er" meter on your phone.

    I think they should tie up diddy, and let all the victims come and abuse him, we'll make a holiday of it every year. (jk, maybe)
