I feel this big time, I had to put my old lady cat down yesterday. Now all I feel is empty

Edit: Thank you all so much your kindness and sympathy, it means a lot to me to still see that people can be capable. To those of you who lost your pets as well you have mine as well

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 03 '22

So sorry for your loss. I hope you find peace in knowing that you gave her a good life full of love and care.

Don’t listen to the trolls, you did the right thing by allowing your cat to die in a dignified way, I am sorry for your loss

u/JamesBrunell May 04 '22

Wish we could do that for our loved ones too.

You murdered your cat for being old.

u/Black-Hippy May 03 '22

Who pissed in your cornflakes this morning?

u/[deleted] May 03 '22

How sad and empty inside do you have to be to be this kind of a bully to people? Like, how pathetic is your life that this is what you do for fun?
Get help you absolute weirdo. Maybe then you can surround yourself with good people and get some positive attention, rather than.... whatever the fuck this is.

u/BryleC May 03 '22

I'm going to assume positive intent as I suspect your comment is a joke. Still, that humor is far too insensitive for this situation.

u/paiopapa2 May 03 '22

lmao so you’d rather the cat suffer needlessly?

I am so sorry for your loss. We are right there with you - My wife and I had to do the same to our 18 year old cat JellyBean last week. I miss you JellyBean! We all do!

9

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 03 '22

Rest in peace JellyBean! I'm so sorry for your loss. My cat is about 12 years old, and I absolutely love her to bits. I suspect she's starting to get arthritis, it gives me anxiety every day, but I hope she'll be okay. Thinking of you and your family.

2

u/buffaloburley May 03 '22

Thank you for your kind words! It is sincerely appreciated!

2

u/Dolblathana May 03 '22

Thank you and I’m sorry for your loss as well

u/Esse2420 May 03 '22

I had a cat named Jellybean too! She was such a queen somehow made it too the ripe old age of 21!

u/crankdatsouljahboi May 03 '22

They are so small but they leave such a huge gaping hole in our lives. Hugs.

22

u/Dolblathana May 03 '22

It’s the little things you don’t think about, like getting up to feed them.

20

u/ktsb May 03 '22

I regret not taking him out more. I mean we went out plenty but we could have gone to a park and hiked more.

12

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 03 '22

I'm sure he loved being cozy, lazy and comfortable at home just as much as going on hikes and walking in the park.

You loved him dearly and cared for him, he felt that and I'm sure he was a very happy doggo. And that's all that matters.

20

u/Dolblathana May 03 '22

I took mine outside and let her walk around the yard before I took her. Don’t be too hard on yourself, we all have things we wish we’d done better.

8

u/Scarlet-Fire_77 May 03 '22

Man this reminds me of when my dog died. I used to always save her some of my eggs after breakfast. I caught myself putting the leftover bit in her bowl a couple times. The realization "oh...right" was hard.

13

u/Left_Debt_8770 May 03 '22

I feel you - my dog Jack had to be put down last Wednesday. The first few days were brutal; now it’s very slightly less so. Be gentle with yourself and feel all of the feels ❤️❤️

I’m sorry for your loss. 😢

Your welcome. They will never be gone because they’ll always be in your heart and mind. ❤️🐶

u/serity12682 May 03 '22

Sorry for your loss 💛🕯 I will hug my old lady extra tight (and she’ll protest most strongly 😂)

I’m sorry for your loss.

And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

- Gibran

I bet you and your cat buddy had lots of sweetness in your friendship.

u/im_racist24 May 03 '22

i know that feeling. it’s going to be really hard for a bit, but i promise it’s gonna start feeling better. in the meantime, try and do things that make you feel better, even if they’re tiny things. don’t be afraid to feel the emotions it brings; burying them only makes it worse. i am so, so sorry for your loss.

2

u/InspiredBlue May 03 '22

I’m so sorry for your loss. Had to put my dog down March 18th. Still miss that little guy a ton.

2

u/Tired4dounuts May 03 '22

Go get a kitten. It'll help with the grief. You'll feel good for rescuing another cat. It helps. I'm sorry for your loss.

2

u/elohasiuszo May 04 '22

The first anniversary of my doggie’s passing is coming up next week, and I’m already heartbroken. It will get better with time but this wound will never heal fully. Take your time mourning and don’t be hard on yourself. Sending you lots of love

u/folkdeath95 May 05 '22

She will be there at the end.

u/anateal444 May 03 '22

u/shift4338 May 03 '22

We just had to say goodbye to our 10 year old cat Hobbes exactly a week ago. It's been incredibly difficult for us, we miss him so much. I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

1

u/xboxhaslag May 03 '22

I feel similar but different situation, my aunt had a dog and it was her only dog for the longest time and a few months ago it passed away, the part that stings the most was that the dog in the photo look a lot like my aunts dog

1

u/cassidy026 May 24 '22

I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing a pet is, in my opinion, one of the most gut-wrenching feelings a human being can endure. I hope you’re doing better. Know it’s okay to let yourself grieve for as long as you need to. ❤️

1

u/Dolblathana May 24 '22

I’m doing better now, thank you for the kindness though. The world could use it

u/SLUUUUURPPPTT May 04 '22

Can someone explain what this means????

1

u/SpoppyIII May 12 '22

What what means? Are you joking around?

2

u/SLUUUUURPPPTT May 15 '22

I'm not. Does putting it down means ending it?

1

u/SpoppyIII May 15 '22

Yes. It means to humanely euthanize an animal.

12

u/Elle-Capitan May 03 '22

This hits me in the feels.. I'm just staring my own bakery and learn today that my dog is sick and doesn't have long.. Would love to do bake for/with her, so I'm just going to do that tomorrow!

4

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 03 '22

Congratulations on your new bakery! And I'm so sorry to hear that. On the brighter side, at least you still have time together to make some great memories and eat some delicious baked goodies!

Also maybe consider having a little photoshoot in your new bakery with your doggo. 💛

u/spook0627 May 03 '22

Had to put my cat down last month just shy of his 10th birthday. It fucking hurts.

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 03 '22

So incredibly sorry for your loss. 💛

u/RunningTurtle06 May 03 '22

Put my dog down 2 weeks ago it's still weird not having him run up to me when I get home :(

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 06 '22

So so sorry for your loss 💛

u/[deleted] May 08 '22

I had a really sweet and beautiful cat I truly loved, who helped me get through the hardest and most painful parts of my life. I still cry when I think of her, I still dream of her, I still think of her when I hear certain songs, even though she died 16 years ago. Rest in peace Daisy...

2

u/ConsiderationFar2038 May 09 '22

Rest in peace sweet Daisy 💛 One day you will be together again 🌻

u/MarcAlmond May 03 '22

I don't know her but she looks like an amazing person

277

u/Quizlibet May 03 '22

She's the host of a YouTube Japanese cooking channel, Cooking with Dog. The dog Francis passed away some time ago but she continues making great recipes.

98

u/ss0889 May 03 '22

the dog was the host of the show, if we're getting specific

38

u/Quizlibet May 03 '22

Still is, to be even more specific

9

u/MarcAlmond May 03 '22

And it has a thick japanese accent.

5

u/Quizlibet May 03 '22

I mean

It is Japanese

1

u/MarcAlmond May 03 '22

Japanese dogs are the best, just see Tofu-chan

17

u/ONOMATOPOElA May 03 '22

I heard they rebranded to Cooking without Dog.

u/[deleted] May 03 '22

Fuck you for making laugh out loud

u/MarcAlmond May 03 '22

Angry upvote

u/Onironius May 03 '22

Nooooo.... I thought it might be, but I'm going to miss Francis's voice.

1

u/Quizlibet May 03 '22

Francis still narrates the videos, last I checked, but he's an animated mascot now

0

u/money_loo May 03 '22

They really needed a comma for that show title…

4

u/Quizlibet May 04 '22

It's very clear what they mean from context, why should they have to tiptoe around antiquated racist stereotypes

0

u/money_loo May 04 '22

What?

No... It's about the image of cooking dog that I don't want to think about, way to reveal yourself though.

1

u/Kaiawathoy Dec 22 '25

No one thought that but you

1

u/money_loo Dec 22 '25

Ack, necromancer!

And that’s not true I actually asked a few people since this happened, what they would think a YouTube channel called “Cooking With Dog” would be about, and most people were disturbed and thought it meant someone was cooking dog in a variety of ways for the shock value clicks.

I’m not sure why anyone brought up racist nonsense except to expose themselves.

I only had the literal English title in mind.

“Cooking, with dog” is just more semantically correct.

u/COCAINE_EMPANADA May 04 '22

She taught me how to make a Bento box :')

u/SkORpONOk_HuNTR May 03 '22

It’s called “Cooking With Dog” and now there’s no dog? That’s the saddest thing I’ve heard all week.

u/AtomicKittenz May 03 '22

My wife was a big fan of the YT channel but said it was really hard to watch afterwards

Great Japanese recipes made simple though

u/MieuFX May 04 '22

I still watch it, it's bittersweet but now Chef does short Vlogs at the end that make me happy

u/Crxeagle420 May 04 '22

u/monkeyhitman May 03 '22

RIP Francis. Such a good pup. Watch some of Cooking With Dog's older videos for outtakes.

65

u/doudoucow May 03 '22

I remember binging these videos with one of my exes. The first vid that had the stuffed dog on our binge watch made me ugly cry like no other even though they go on cooking and teaching as always.

22

u/woobyumjin2 May 03 '22

Yeah, I still remember her first episode back - her voice breaking and trying to hold it together when talking about Francis. Heartbreaking

u/Cephalopodio May 03 '22

u/ilickyboomboom May 03 '22

Francis had no background in film or television before starring in the web series

Love it

33

u/TitularFoil May 03 '22

I was fine with the stuffed animal. I thought it was a sweet.

It was when I noticed her apron. Same dog, as close to her heart she can get it.

88

u/Jaisonk May 03 '22

Having lost a few furry companions in my life, I've always felt that the grief you experience is a reflection on just how much you loved your pet.

u/HandsomeShane May 03 '22

Francis :(

u/lewolq May 03 '22

One of the worst feelings in the world its missing a dog, it breaks me it's really rough

u/Roscuro127 May 03 '22

I still make my cat that died 8 years ago into whatever game I can. He sits in my pocket in tf2, he was my farm cat in stardew valley, and he was my palico in monster hunter world. You don't just get over a close, constant, comfort that was with you for 16 years. I'll never forget him.

1

u/Triktastic May 04 '22

The TF2 one is so freakin sweet to keep him close to you.

u/Dear-Thanks2756 May 03 '22

Lost my dog to old age two years ago. I still miss him today.

u/CitizendAreAlarmed May 03 '22

The first episode after Francis died… watching/hearing two people grieving for their pet was devastating.

u/MarcoRevolution303 May 03 '22

Why Is life so cruel

u/Alarid May 03 '22

We all know the obvious joke, but it isn't really that funny so don't make it.

3

u/_heisenberg__ May 03 '22

One of the hardest things about making the choice to own a pet is going in knowing that you are going to have your heart devastatingly broken one day. And no matter what, you can’t do anything to prepare.

I have two cats, brother and sister, who are just 2.5 years old. They absolutely love being around me and always want to be in my lap. Sometimes I really need to focus on work but I give in to them wanting to be in my lap. I have to remind myself that even though it’s over a decade from now, there is going to be a time that I’m going to fucking miss them wanting to be with me.

That’s love you cant find anywhere else.

That’s sad. I had to put my friend of 14 years down about month before my son was born. I think of him practically every day.

u/[deleted] May 11 '23

I see stuff like this and it rips my heart out. I have two cats now, my wife and I adopted when they kittens (BACKSTORY)

(I have always been a cat person, and after we moved to LA from FL, I left my cat behind, because long story short he made best friends with my SIL's cat, so eventually we decided to pull the trigger and get another cat. We went to adoptions in the area, until we found the most adorable kittens, I only wanted one, but they were in a litter of 3. One being the biggest, more independent one, and two smaller ones that we didn't know were "Bonded", it didn't take long for me to hold one of them, feel them purr against me and feel we had to give them a home, so we got both. However, naturally I was hesitant, this was TWO cats. Not just one. I've never had two cats at once, and I was worried about costs, we went to the vet, got them all done and checked out, got litter, toys, food, and I saw our bank account slowly dwindling. Also, them being kittens they would start to tear up our carpet, and couch, etc, They were wild, and I at one point start to debate getting rid of them, and giving them to a proper home that can actually take care of them. It took my wife convincing me and crying a lot to finally have me just... slow down and take it one day at a time. Little did I know these cats would become my absolutely favorite cats I've ever owned. One being a little girl who is skittish, and hides a lot, more independent and likes to sleep alone in hiding places, but occasionally comes out, and one being the boy who is just the sweetest, and loves playing, and LOVES cuddling, as well as playing fetch, and asking to be picked up and held, etc. The girl eventually broke out of her shell and now asks for pets, and plays a lot more than when she was younger, and now she's SUPER cuddly, and drools when pet. They both sleep with us nightly, and have a little routine they have fallen into. They just the BEST animals we have ever owned)

they are only about 4 human years now, but holy shit do I think about the day when one of them is found lifeless, or shows signs of slowing... I know I shouldn't. I know I should enjoy every second with them, and I do, but dear god I fear for that day when I lose one of them, it will destroy me.
I have random intrusive thoughts of walking in on one of them dead, and the other crying. Of both gone... of one living without the other and having a completely different personality now that their sibling is missing... It hurts, but I tell myself that isn't for a long time, cats live long lives. They are only about 4-5 now, and will be here for about 10+ more... they will be around when we move into a new house, they will be here when we have kids, and our kids will grow up with them.

But damn that thought randomly crosses my mind.
