I am sorry for your loss of your long lived cat. She sure had a very full life!
Yes dear Liebling.. Sussi wasn't a cat for you. She's your furdaughter. I can see how you and your hubby grieve Sussi. She was a training furchild for you both before you both had your own skinchild.
Hang in there Liebling. It's going to be hard especially when you lose your heart cat.
For your feline to reach 22 years of age, as many have said already.. It's a rare sight to see and often says something about the owner.
You most likely must have treated your cat with utmost respect, care and kindness in order for it to live a long healthy life. The average human age for a cat is in the 10's.
Even from your pictures that you've posted around on alldeaf.com with your cat(s), one can observe that Sussi enjoyed living a full life under her master's care.
She will be awaiting you for the next life. Or perhaps you may encounter her again!

I know what you mean. I was given a book about losing your "forever kitty" after I lost my most-recent one, 1 1/2 years ago. When I get home next (tomorrow, probably) I will post the words from that book. It may bring comfort to you, Liebling, and everyone else.
Please do share the words AlleyCat.
When I lost my heart cat girl Ashy, I thought my world ended. Days just dragged on and on. My heart cat boy Mosey knew my pain because he was suffering the same.
It will get easier Liebling.
I'm really sorry to hear about your cat. I know how you feel as I had to euthanise the last of my rodent companions. I felt terrible for having to do a thing like that but she would have deffinately suffered if I hadn't. I guess it was the lesser of two evils.
