    Im sorry you are feeling down, Miro. I know how you feel. I lost one of my dogs in January and she was an absolute sweetheart. I still miss her so much and would love another hug from her (she loved hugs). She was bigger than most dogs of her breed and I loved this because there was more to hug!

    We get so close to our little furry friends and it its horrible when they are old or ill. Just think about the lovely life you have given her and how she has enjoyed it. Give her lots of fuss and love and then when she does pass away you will know you did everything you could for her. Hugs ((()))

    I still miss my cat which died in April. I always will.

    Animals can mean as much to people as humans, some people don't understand that, but it's their loss.

    She's had a happy life. The most laid back living creature i've ever met. Can probably count on one hand how many times she's got a little agitated by something or someone and even then it lasted a second. She will be spoilt to the very end.

    It is a terrible loss losing a pet.

    Blind cats are amazing and so loving

    I wish I was half as brave as her. She knows her way around and is enjoying the extra treats she is having.

    Sorry to hear about your cat miro. Sad that their life seems so short compared to ours.

    My mum's cat gets cystitus when she eats dry food so mum has to keep it away from her. Not sure whether that helps any, as I know she has other health problems.

    I know it's hard but can you see another cat in your future at all? Not a replacement but as an extra comfort? There's so many cats at rescue centers just waiting to be loved.

    The cat that has Cystitis loves her dry food, but also her wet food. She loves her food :o She seems to be better today, but probably won't last.

    Well, still have 4 at the moment, was 5 before April, so when the ill one passes, still will have 3. When down to 1, may consider a couple of new additions. Hopefully not something I have to think about for a while :o

    Erm i've read that thread myself and several people on there have given you some very very good advice on how your little boy (and i use that term because that is the way your treating him) should defend himself.

    You seem to be very good at picking fault with everyone else but your little boy. Perhaps he should grow up and fight his own battles because mummy wont be able to do it for him forever.

    and now if you dont like my advice then well tough. i dont care!

    Typical troll behaviour to follow someone around the forum in order to have a go at them. Funny you say you don't care and then join the depression thread just to start an argument.:rolleyes:

    I'm not surprised that thread has gone - it really did turn into a complete slanging match, and then they started searching through all the other posts by CCStar looking to make more trouble - completely unnecessary in my opinion.

    I haven't been online this afternoon so I don't know if I missed anything, but it was horrible for CCStar on that thread.

    In the end there was no point CCStar posting anything because the other posters would just have used whatever she said against her. It can be nasty down on Discussion Time. I have posted on different threads myself and ended up being picked on. I try to stay aloof from it because it is after all only an internet forum - these people don't know me personally. It can be upsetting when people are having a go though.

    Hope you are ok, CCStar.

    I will agree that it was pointless CCstar posting anything - she just didn't listen to the very sensible advice other people had given her so may as well not bothered posting at all.

    If people do not want to hear advice and suggestions i suggest they do not post on a open forum. Not everyone will say things that the OP will want to hear, however often the truth hurts.

    Goodnight folks!

    I 'm sure ccstar did listen to the sensible advice it is the posts like yours calling her son a waster ect that were the problem.It is just YOUR opinion that her son was skiving only the truth as YOU see it,even though ccstar stated her son was very ill with a high temperature,from your posts anyone would think you were on first name term with her son you seem to know so much.

    So why do you have to keep picking on someone who you must know is suffering from depression? That is just bullying. The 'job' thread is totally irrelevant here, and while CC may have been oversensitive to criticism (such is the nature of depression), a lot of what was said to her there was unnecessary.

    Just because someone posts on a depression thread doesn't mean they are depressed. i have previously posted on a pregnancy thread - doesn't mean i'm up the duff now does it?!?!?

    Oh and i also notice that the person who PM'd me hasn't had the decency to reply to my PM.
