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.

    Damn, sorry for your loss 😔
    I had a cat named Momo too, she got FIP which was 100% fatal at the time (vaccines for it didn’t exist back then) and passed away. Hope they’re snuggling together in kitty heaven ♥️

      Oh no. I’m so sorry for both of your losses. Coincidentally one of our current cat’s name is also Momo.

    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…

    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.”

    My Nemo, momo, was last year. Something about them. Special little ones. God bless.

    Sorry for your loss 😥🩵I hope you’re okay. Momo is beautiful!

    I, too, have a toy-carrying chirper! Her name is officially Violet, but we call her Gubba. She has a stuffed fish she is particularly vocal over. We always know when she has it in her mouth, be cause her chirps take on a muffled, more variable and “conversational” tone. For example, she’s usually more, “brr-brr” for attention, but with her toy, she’s like, “uh-owwwwlll! Brrowww!” Finished off with some modulations caused by her chewing.

    Here she is, chirping to let me know my lap needs room for her impending jump:

    … And what usually follows the jump:

    “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.
