Last night we said goodbye to the Goddess Athena, my 17 year old kitten. She is on Olympus now.

Thank you. Hug and kiss your pet extra for me today.
I will pet both my kittens (also named after Gods (of destruction)) ❤️
17 years! you must have given her such a wonderful life
My entire adult life has been spent with her. She gave me so much comfort over the years.

Eyes bright,
claws sharp,
tail held high.
Go keenly into the mist, young warrior.
Valhalla waits for you.
Their lives are too short!!
Indeed.
What a beautiful girl. So sorry.
3 white socks (one got lost in the laundry), a perfect bib and raccoon tail. Thank you.
Sorry for your loss, she will be awaiting you in olympus.
My sincere condolences. I lost my 16 year old cat to cancer this year. Try to remember the good times.
This was a large growth that was likely cancerous in her bowels. Operable but not without great pain. I am focusing on the great times and pictures I have with her.
Remember the good, and bad (all times with pets are good really).
Athena Rules!
Long will she reign in your heart.
My girlfriends dog, Athena, died this morning. Complications with a tumor in her organs.
Lost my cat to cancer this week, too. They give us so much, don't they? Whenever I come home and there's no cat to trip over, it hurts.
I adore the handsome cravat Athena wore. How regal!
Im sorry for your loss OP... I just recently lost my siamese to renal disease. I shared 17 years with her as well. She was my friend and my sister and i will miss her a lot. We will all meet again at the End of time..
I'm so sorry. Most of my cats lived to be 20 but one of them passed very unexpectedly at 9 years due to cancer. You'll heal from this and the good memories will be with you forever.
