My kitty Bootsie Jane got very sick and I had to make a tough decision yesterday to put her to sleep. My heart is breaking bc she was my very best friend. My head and eyes hurt from crying. I’ve been binge eating for some reason all day even though physically I don’t feel well either. I’m a broken mess .

She was a 17 year old queen of the house cat that I raised from a kitten. This house seems so empty without her. I keep expecting to see her.

I don’t think I can ever truly heal from this.
