I think i may have killed my cat…?
ok first off… please take me seriously. i don’t want BS. so back in july on just an ordinary day i went into a room to find my cat. i thought it would be funny to put a cup over his head to see how he would react. he ended up being frightened and running under the bed. then he jumped back up onto his perch and moments later he cried out. i went yelling for my parents and he was dead by the time we got him to the vet. i miss him very much and can never forgive myself for this. i didn’t mean to hurt him. i always used to goof around with him. i do admit it was stupid that i did it. another thing is he did have heart problems, but did not know to what extent. maybe i triggered a heart attack. please help this has been taking over my whole mind for the past half year. should i tell my parents what really happened… perhaps a few years from now. i don’t know i’m just a mess. i also want to make it very clear this was not intentional i love animals very much. and i really miss my sweet cat. he was a good cat. and i also want to know will God forgive me if this really was my fault? and about the rainbow bridge? will i be reunited and will my cat forgive me?

Once upon a time, I would have been horrified and judgemental. That was before some bad things happened to my foster kitties. All of the bad things were the result of accidents or ignorance. In some ways, animals are wiser than we are. They know humans make plenty of mistakes. God will know if you are sorry and will be able to forgive you. Assuming you and your cat had love for each other before this happened, he will be waiting for you when you get to the Rainbow Bridge.
If you’re not ready to tell your parents, please, Please, PLEASE consider talking to a counselor or therapist. Maybe you can figure out a way to honor your cat’s life instead of focusing on his death? Some options may include adopting a homeless pet, making a donation to a local rescue organization, or volunteering to help at an animal shelter. You sound sincerely regretful. Your cat wouldn’t want you to be grief-stricken.
P.S. One thing that most people on Earth don’t know is that some people get to Heaven before their pets make it to the Rainbow Bridge. Your cat is a companion to someone who is waiting for their cat to finish out it’s life.
it was an accident, beaner
tell your parents u will feeel much better…do not blame it on yourself…if u r really sorry God will forgive u
I think telling ur parents will get a load off ur chest, and make u feel better about what happened. I’m sure god will forgive u.
i am an animal lover, and it doesnt seem like you killed him. It seems like a coincidence that the accident happened and it died when you put a cup over his head. It doesnt seem like you killed him, probably the heart problems did. Don’t feel bad. if it keeps bugging you, you should talk to your parents.
sweetie,i kno0w that u didn’t mean to,but you suffucated your cat.Mine have died that way by getting into the trash and getting their heads stuck.The only thing that u can do is to move on and forgive yourself.And,most important—don’t do something like that again-k-? Just strive to do different.Get yourself a new kitty and love & spoil it–Don’t just play around. You will b ok.Good Luck
Just tell them. I can tell you feel awful! Of course God will forgive you. It was an accident.
Good luck!
You killed your cat by giving him a heart attack. He won’t forgive you because you killed him. God might forgive you but you killed an animal. You will never ever see your cat again.
hmm… u did make a mistake… but since it was unintentional u may have an excuse…u can tell ur parents… and maybe they can understand… if u really didnt mean any bad intention, God will forgive u… and idk if humans get reunited with their pets… lol
You were playing with him as usual and something happened. The cup may have startled him or it may just be a coincidence. Beating yourself over the head will do no good. You don’t even know if you had anything to do with it. From what you describe, it doesn’t seem like it. You were good to your cat and loved him. He had a good life and enjoyed your company.
His heart was weak and this you could do nothing about. Just because he was "frightened" by the cup, it would not cause a heart attack. Assume it was coincidental. God and all we love, are always with us, don’t forget that. Best wishes.
If you knew your cat had heart problems, even if you didnt know how serious it was, you should of never have horsed around with your cat, because even the tinyest thing can cause a heart attack, which most likely would be the cause of death , or something simular. Just have faith that your cats spirit is with you right now, and that God will forgive you if you tell the truth to your parents what really happened, and you will be reunited with your cat, that is, if your cat wants to.
I know cats can die very suddenly from heart problems and most of the time without warning. My friend came home from work one day to find her cat dead in the living room from a heart defect. It’s best to not cause any added anxiety to animal with heart problems, but you shouldn’t stay so hard on yourself since you obviously weren’t intending that to happen. Animals are very forgiving and so is God. I’m sure your cat would be very excited if he were to see you again.
