Taking care of yourself will let you be there for Elton in the best way, no pun intended. Absolutely. I feel good about my decisions here.

Reputator Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I lost my cat of 12 years this past Monday. He was deteriorating rapidly and after a three day vacation, we came back to find he had gone totally blind and was completely disoriented. It was a hard decision to decide to do what was best for him, but ultimately that's what was most important. You still have a fuzzy friend to come back to. It's something even to strive for. With hard work on yourself and your situation, you'll be reunited soon. Look forward to that! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll definitely remember you a year later. He may be an angry kitty for the first couple days but then he'll shower you with affection and be super clingy for a long while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogs will remember their owners for years, which is why you see all those heart breaking videos of soldiers returning from duty and getting reunited. Not sure how long cats remember but I am thinking it's something similar. When I was in high school my uncle was moving around a lot so he ended up leaving his two cats with my family and they most definitely remembered him whenever he showed up. If you think it will make you feel better to see him I say visit when you can. If you think he's made himself a home in the new place you can always leave him there, but nothing wrong with saying hi to an old friend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I came home from Crete, we were gone for a month, my kitty avoided me for a few hours. But then I woke up with him basically sleeping on my face, he doesn’t do that, and he was attached to me, not my fiancé, for a week. They know. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well reading what you guys ate saying, I will in fact visit him and maybe even take him back when I move again. 1 hour ago, TUFKAK said: Last time I came home from Crete, we were gone for a month, my kitty avoided me for a few hours.

Let me make it clearer i often joke he loves her more than me, mainly because he spends more time with her. She’s wfh, I’m healthcare so I leave for a long time, plus I ruined our tradition of me cuddling him when I’d come from work, he’d meet me at the door, during the pandemic as I was too worried to pick him up until I showered. But after a mutual separation he’s more affectionate with me than her. He definitely remembers all our past, I’m sure your boy will too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Well, after 2 months I'm doing much better emotionally, physically, and mentally. The financial burden has been lifted so I'm slowly paying things off while saving some money. My eating habits completely changed and I'm so much more healthier now. Being around my parents and their dog has helped me out socially and I don't feel alone anymore. Things are finally feeling better just in time for Christmas and then my birthday which is New Years Eve. Now, I just have to keep saving and keep up with therapy and things will get better. My ultimate goal is to eventually get back out on my own and establish a relationship as soon as possible. I need companionship and a woman in my life. I'll be 41 so I'm not getting any younger. Elton is doing pretty well. I've been in touch with my buddy who took him and he sends me updates and pics. I knew Elton was an alpha male, and the stories I'm hearing confirm that lol. He now lives in a much bigger place with so much more things to do. He is living with 5 other cats and he is the king of the manor. He is in complete control of the food, litter boxes, and from what I hear, all the cats follow his lead. I ultimately decided that I will never take him back. His life is much better now and I don't want to fuck that up when I move. I still tear up when I see pics of him and I really miss him still. I loved that cat more than any other animal I've ever had. Anyway, I figured I'd update this and I appreciate your support everyone! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
