This is one of the hardest and most heartbreaking posts I’ve ever had to make. 💔
Please, if you have totes with lids—especially the airtight kind—be aware of the danger they can pose. One of my personal cats, Attie (short for Attitude, because she had plenty of it), somehow got into one of our airtight food containers while I was in the hospital. I was gone from Tuesday morning until Saturday afternoon, and when I came home, I found her… she hadn’t made it out.
I am devastated beyond words. Please, I ask kindly—no negative comments will be tolerated. This is already unbearable. I’m sharing this only in hopes that it might save another life. If even one person rethinks leaving an airtight tote accessible, then maybe some good can come from this tragedy.
Attie will be cremated in a couple of weeks when we can come up with the funds. Please take a moment today to hug and kiss your furbabies a little tighter—you truly never know what tomorrow brings. 💔🐾
