Worst day of my life...

We had to get our cat put to sleep today... she went missing on Saturday and me and a few of my friends found her sitting next to a tree in the woods behind my house, and brought her back home, the next day she stopped eating and drinking everything, and just kept getting worse and worse and more pathetic by the hour... At first we thought it might have been worms or something, preventing her from eating, but it turns out that she had EVERYTHING going wrong with her at once and she was basically just dying in front of us... We didn't even know it was that bad.... By the time we got her to the vet, she couldn't even see anymore..
I didn't go into the vet with them, and I'll regret it for the rest of my life. I was expecting her to come back out with the cat and she didn't... and because I was in denial about how bad she actually had gotten, I never even got to say goodbye.. The last time I pet her she got up and stood on my lap and stared at me, then lied up against my leg.. and it didn't even dawn on me until now that she was saying bye to me.... and I never got to say goodbye to her..
She didn't get lost in the woods, she went back there and laid next to that tree on purpose... because she knew it was coming, even though we didn't. After we brought her back in the house, all she did up until we left this morning was try to go back outside...
The cat was older than me... This is literally the first day of my ENTIRE life that she hasn't been here, and I can't stress enough how much it's the worst one I've ever endured.
I'm not going to be around for a while. I hope you guys can understand. <:3

I'm gonna hate seeing my dog go because we bought him the same year I was born, so he's 16 years old too and I can tell that he's not the same playful dog he used to be =(
One thing that helped me when my dog passed on is to remember each and every one of your happiest memories together, because those moments are the ones that mattered the most.
There's a sad truth behind owning a pet, and that is they will never be with us forever. But if you keep those happy moments in your heart, your cat will never, ever leave you.
My cat actually ran off somewhere into the woods when he was about to die though. He never did come back. And he was an inside-cat too... :<
I hope things get better for you. u_u
Thanks, I really hope so too... I've never been so depressed in my entire life... And it's not so much about the fact that she's gone, because that was inevitable, it's the fact that I was in such denial about how bad she was that I half-expected her to have something less severe wrong with her that I didn't even go into the vet with them.. I feel like the most horrible person in the world right now... She was around for the first moments of my life, and I didn't even have the decency to be there for her in the last moments of hers... and now for the rest of my life I'll have to go on knowing that...
(I'm not that great at comforting people but i really hope this helps.)
