I feel horrible for my dh, who had to see it happen. He was really her special human; she would try to lure him into the bedroom so he would lie down and let her sit on his chest. I have four other cats, and I’ve lost countless others--to disease, car accidents, or just old age. This is the first I’ve lost to a dog. I’m angry at the dog, even though it was just following its instinct. I’m angrier at the owner for letting the dog out, or not securing it properly.

Anyway, she will be missed. She had ridiculously large paws, claws that were way too sharp, and the softest fur. She was also very grumpy and fussy, but that’s what made her so special to us.

It may seem like too little too late, but make a report to animal control. Especially if you know where the dog lives or who owns it. It won't do a thing for Angel, but it may save some other cat or small dog.

i remember when my cat died, well murdered.

my druken stepdad took her to the vet one day when we were not home and had her put to sleep. his excuse... she was ****ting, and pissing everywere. which was not true, he was the one getting drunk and pissing everywere. and my cat only went in the litter box.

yet another reason i am going to end his life. that drunken bastered.
