Bringing the box inside I immediately began to regret not signing up for the Crazy CatLadyBox which included goodies for cats as well as cat ladies because Truffles was so interested in checking out the box. In my defense, Truffles was never that into toys, so I figured it would end up being a waste of money, but I planned to give it some thought before renewing my subscription.
What I didn't know is these would end up being the last photos of Truffles I would ever take. Less than 4 days later she would be gone and my heart would be shattered into a million pieces.
The next morning she started acting a bit "off", and even though my concern grew as the weekend went on, never in a million years would I have guessed what was to come on Monday night.

I will be joining you, of course!
Oh Mudpie and Melissa it really hurts to hear how son she went. Bless you both * and a hug for Mom *
Truffles was something special and I remember when I started blogging!
Hugs as you remember beautiful Truffles.
We'll be joining you. And sending hugs.
What a bittersweet memory. Truffles was such a special kitty, and I'll never forget that sad, shocking day when we learned she was gone. Sending you big hugs.
Hugs.
It is shocking how suddenly things like that can happen. It is good that you took these photos.
The last photos that I took of Chuck are still in my phone, and I'm not sure I'll ever remove them. I wasn't expecting them to be the last ones, so I know how you feel about that.
WE will be here. I understand the heaviness in your heart.
I honestly don't know how you've managed. My Kitty died over 10 years ago and I still question myself, the doctors, etc. I'm not saying you should question yourself ... I just know that's the natural conclusion when you lose a kitty like that. As much as we LOVE Miss Mudpie, we would've loved to get to know Truffles better.
ps - on Tuesday, you asked what sticky note Bear would put on Mudpie ... this is Bear's answer ... ""Once ... twice ... three times a tortie. And I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE you!"
Aw, so sorry, Melissa. Truffles was well-loved for sure, and I know she had an awesome life with you.
Oh my gosh, how special these photos must be to you. ❤️
How heart-wrenching to look back at these photos. I never knew Truffles but I’ve read the story of that fateful day and my heart broke with yours. Sweet photos of her that I hope brings some comfort. ❤️😽
Whoa! Such joy tempered with such sad memories.
I will be here for your tribute to your beautiful angels. XO
Bittersweet memories......
This is so profoundly bittersweet. We will certainly be here with you to celebrate the lives of your beautiful angels Tara and Truffles. Hugs to you.
Your pets become part of your family. I remember our Kia last day with us. She was laying on her favorite blanket not able to get up to eat so our Luna she grew up with Kia would go to her bowl of food and bring it over to Kia. She knew what was happening. She layed with her all night with her paw on her. It was the saddest day and night. We all cried for days. Luna was lost I think she still looks for her favorite sister.. Hugs to you and your family. Tina
It breaks my heart to see these photos, Melissa, but I know that precious Truffles is always by your side. Hugs!
I am struck by how pretty and sweet and petite your angel Truffles was. Ok, the tears are flowing now...
