loss

Cats enrich our lives. For those of you who have a cat, or multiple cats, you already know this to be true. Our cats are incredible creatures full of affection (each in their own way).

Yes, they're all adorable but they're so much more than that. They bring us endless joy. The moment you see them after a long day is an indescribable joy. We adore feline friends so much, it's difficult to put into words more often than not. When you really think about it, these animals have been by your side for countless years. They've been there for you, through hard times and through good times. We love them like family.

That's why it's always painful to say goodbye. But our pets are never gone forever, they live within our hearts. To all those who recently lost a beloved pet, our hearts are with you. They may be physically gone, but never forgotten.

Once a week, we like to honor all cats. 

Cats. We can't get enough of these beautiful felines, whether they may be physically in our lives or not. We can't help but fall in love with each and every cat we see and/or read about online. We can't help but get personally attached to each one. 

Cats provide us with endless joy and warmth. They make our lives more full, bring us comfort when we need it, bring us laughter when we need it, they are constant entertainment. Oh, not to mention, they're cute 125% of the time and completely irresistible. We could talk about what cats mean to us forever and it'll never do it any justice. 

Cats are a part of our lives, and sometimes that part leaves us and it will always feel like they're leaving us too soon. To all those who recently lost a pet, our hearts are with you. They may be gone but they will never be forgotten. 

Cats, cats, cats. We can look at photos of cats all day long! Some photos are simply hilarious, so funny that you can see the picture quickly becoming a viral meme template. Some cat images are breathtaking. Some cat images will make your heart burst due to cuteness alone. And some cat images tell a story, a story of love, a story of survival, a story of kindness, or a story of mourning and loss. 

Each cat photo is utterly precious to us and we're here to honor them all and share their story! Speaking of sharing stories, if you have a pet and wish to share their story, be sure to check out our newest Facebook group, 'ICanHas Storytime,' a community of animal lovers sharing their stories. 

We would also like to take a moment and think of those who have recently crossed the rainbow bridge. To those who have recently lost a pet, our hearts are with you. They may be gone but never forgotten. 

It's been quite the year! Not just for us, but for our pets as well. 

They've gotten to see more of us this year than ever before. We've bonded with our pets, our connection stronger than ever. Our animals have saved many of us this year and we couldn't be more thankful for them being in our lives. 

This is an appreciation to all those cats out there. You'll discover moments of happiness, moments of wholesomeness, and moments of heartbreak. To those who recently lost a loved one. our hearts are with you. They may be gone but never forgotten. 

This is for all cats everywhere -- we love you all! 

All cats are beautiful! Every single one of them, even if they're missing an eye, missing a limp, or born with a rare defect. We celebrate all cats here at I Can Has Cheezburger and dedicate each cat medley to them. 

Once a week, we gather up a bunch of adorable and gorgeous cats doing what they do best - being cats. Some photos feature humor, others may share mourning and loss, but all have an undeniable beauty. It's always a heartbreaking and devastating moment if a furbaby crossing over the rainbow bridge. Those animals were such a large part of our lives, hearts, and ourselves. 

Our hearts go out to all those who have recently a beloved one. They may be gone but never forgotten. 

Cats, cats, and nothing but cats.

It's refreshing to take a set back from life and focus on the joy and love cats bring to our lives. They're obviously all adorable to look at and make our hearts scream "aww" itself, but there's more to cats than just their adorableness. They are so wildly funny without trying, having a cat is like having a live show on all the time. Cats can even be funny when they sleep, and they are most definitely always cute doing so.

Besides cuteness and funnies, they also just fill that hole in our hearts. They are our best friends, we love them unconditionally and they show us their love in their own individual ways. It's never easy to say goodbye to that love but it's a part of life and we're here to honor that life, all lives of cats everywhere. To all those who recently lost a loved one, we send you our love. They may be gone but never forgotten. 

Where would we be without cats in our lives? Don't answer that because we don't want to know. Cats bring us so much love and joy, they are our loves, best friends, and more. 

Whenever they leave us and cross over the rainbow bridge, it's always devasting but try to remember that they are not forgotten, even if they are gone. Our weekly cat medley features all kinds of cat pics, some of which as sad but most of them happy. It's a blend of life and it's real. We honor all things cats, from start to finish. 

To all those who recently lost a pet, our hearts are with you. 

Cats, cats, and cats. Nothing but cats and that's how we like it! Each week, we love to collect the best cat pics and stories online and present them here. 

Each cat picture, or video, tells a different story and has a different set of emotions behind it. That's what makes this gathering a medley of a variety of things, number one being adorableness (which, granted, all cats naturally have), the second is the much-needed balance of humor, and the last being anything that tugs on the heartstrings (good or bad).

In this case, we have both. We have heartwarming stories of glow-ups and transformations. Yet, we also have heartbreaking moments of mourning and loss. We wanted to take a moment and send love to those who had recently had a pet cross the rainbow bridge. Your pet may be gone physically, but never emotionally, and never, ever forgotten. 

It's all about being there. Through it all. Being there with your beloved pet is love.

We've got a big list of beauties to share with you all. Each week, we take the top posts from the subreddit r/cats and share them here with all of you. 

This week we a lovely assortment of cute, incredible glow-ups and sadly, cats who have crossed over that rainbow bridge.

We wanted to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of all these cats and remember those who have recently left us, they may be gone but never forgotten. 

And if this list hits you harder than you'd like, we have another medley here that may ease that pain. 

For those who are going through the loss of a beloved pet, we send you our love and condolences. 

We love everything cats. We love their endless cuteness and their adorable funny quirks. We love how love transforms them into the beauties they always were. We love everything about our furry friends and when the time comes to say goodbye, it hurts. 

But with great love comes great loss. It's something we're all aware of but doesn't make it any easier. The only thing we can do is love and give a life we think is grand. As we searched through the most liked cat pictures on the subreddit r/cats, this week, we collected another blend of emotions. Emotions ranging from hilarity to mourning and loss, and we're here to share all that love with you.

We wanted to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of all these cats and remember those who have recently left us, they may be gone but never forgotten. And we wish a loving recovery to all those healing (cats and humans).

Welcome back to another hearty collection of cats being cats! Special thanks to the subreddit r/cats, for always delivering such magic! 

The pictures all have one thing in common, and that is, of course, cats. However, that's where the similarities end. 

There are images of glow-ups, hilarious cats being hilarious, adorable-ness (naturally), and mourning and loss. It can't always be sunshine and rainbows, sadly... with love comes loss.

This is so beautiful. It's like when you're having the worst day imaginable, just downpour rain and all of a sudden you see it -- a rainbow. A rainbow appears and you can't help but smile because you know things will get better. 

And if you recently lost a loved one, you know they're looking down, watching over you. That's how we choose to see it, anyways.

Twitter user, @LLedgeway, recently lost her beloved dog and later in the day, saw an image of her beautiful dog in the clouds. 

And we totally see it, too! Twitter users soon began sharing similar experiences and our eyes are just so weepy. 

We believe in all these signs, anything that brings comfort in such a time.

Losing a cat (or any beloved pet) is never easy. It hits you hard and lingers. Some people don't seem to understand that losing a pet is more than just that -- it's losing a member of your family, no matter the duration they've been there. 

The love and the strong bond you both built throughout the years, that's a relationship. That's love. And it's always hard to say goodbye.
