The most horrible thing happened last night. I was changing a load of blankets from the washer to the dryer and my adorable little cat (about a year old) jumped in the dryer before I could even notice or hear him. I had so much in my arms. He had never ever gone in there so it didn’t dawn on me to check before putting blankets in. I am horrified and heart broken. I keep thinking back to the moment it happened wondering if I could have done something different. I loved him so much, he was like my shadow, always cuddling with me at every second. I have been crying all day from guilt and the pain of no longer having him around. Does anyone have any coping advice? I do not know what to do without him. He was an angel of a cat and I know I will never be able to replace him.

When I was little my mom accidentally killed one of our cats this way. Lily was a beautiful white fluffy kitty. She was so devastated, and felt guilty for a long time. I’m sure she still does to this day, decades later. But trust me it was not your fault, these things happen.

my cat died in the dryer today
 so my cat, mochi, is 9 months and i’ve had her since may. she was the best kitty, so energetic, sweet and adorable. earlier i was taking a nap, my mom came in my room and told me and my brother that mochi is dead. she didn’t see her in the dryer, put the clothes in there and turned it on. she opened the dryer, and there she was… i’m fucking crushed, heart broken, traumatized, whatever. i feel horrible and sick to my stomach still and i can’t stop crying. she was so little and we had so much more time with her. i’m so insanely depressed that she suffered and that this happened to her. i just can’t even fathom that this is real. i just hate everything right now. can anyone please give me advice or something please
