My cat was just killed and I just buried her...

I'm a college student (at my parents house for the summer), and after getting home from my summer job, my mom told me my cat as run over by a car (we had a chip put in her - we got a call from the animal hospital down the street). 

Now I'm not looking for a pity party, but I seriously have not been this upset in long, long time. She was 8 months old, a little black cat I named Jiji (from Kiki's delivery service) I adopted from a friend who couldn't take care of her (when she was just born). These last two semesters I've been so busy and kind of down honestly, and she was my one little friend that I always could count on seeing every day. 

I'm not the type to cry, almost ever, but I just cannot stop. When I picked up her body in a box from the animal hospital, I just lost it, and had to make a quick exit to avoid embarrassing myself. I went in our backyard and dug a hole to put her in, and that was that. it's been like 6 hours, but I still can't stop crying. I just miss her so much.

 .. Dude I feel closer to animals than most humans. It hurts man :(

Sorry to hear man. I felt that same heavy feeling in my heart when I lost one of my cats years ago.

Its crazy to think that we bring these animals in our homes to live with us, and its just a dog, or its just a cat right? How attached can you get? But then when its gone its incredibly sad. Pets can attach to you in remarkable ways. -Fromage-

I'm at least glad I got to spend some time with her the night before. She came up to me and did her usual figure 8 between my legs while puring. I can't picture that without out choking up...

I don't know if it helps, but you're not alone. I lost this guy just last year.

Sorry to hear that... I do have to say though your cat looks remarkably like mine (mine was quite a bit smaller though). How old was he?

sorry to hear that. we lost our oldest cat a few years ago, his back legs stopped working one morning and died a few days later and i had to bury him. i dont want to even think about losing my cat. my mom was a wreck when one of our dogs died. 

practically had him since birth, should be 9 years old in a few months.

Yeah sucks man I know how you feel. Cancer took my dog and in the moment of his death he was gasping for air as his heart stopped beating. I just hope your kitty did not have to suffer at all.

Thats sucks I know how it feels. My 12 year old chihuahua was hit by a car and died 2 years ago. I still miss him and think about him all the time.
