i lost my cat name patches 2 years ago. i miss her dearly. that same day i put my dog diva down and it was horrible. patches was a lovely an sweet cat. i cry every time i see her picture. we had adopted dive from the spca and she was a 10 year old german short hair. well one morning at 6 a.m. i was woken by my mom screams and i was not expecting this. diva had gotta a hold of patches and shook her violently and cracked her skull fractured 3 ribs and punctured her lug. she was still alive. i pulled diva off her and grabbed patches and ran inside mom an i were crying i wrapped her in a blanket and laid her in a basket mom called the vet and they said they would open at 8. we waited for a hour then we left. i hated the fact that i had to keep her suffering. at 8:30 i had to put her down. i lost it when we got home i went up stairs at got my dads gun i loaded it i was about to shoot the dog. but i couldn't. we had her put to sleep that day. but to this day when i see her picture i cry. ='(
