Boyfriend’s cat died unexpectedly

Anonymous
Any words of wisdom on what to say/do here? Cat was not sick.

I’m so sorry for your sudden loss. Then I’d say nothing else because I hate cats.

Just be supportive. He’ll be grieving.

Is he the one who choose the cat over you and your infant?

OMG. I had the same thought.

Say something like, "I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved friend" because that is what this is. I would do something extra nice for him also.

My husband had a little cat when we met, and when Angus died, he cried every night for a week. It's a horrible loss, especially when it's unexpected.

I'm so sorry. Just be extra kind to him. That's what people need when they are grieving.

Be there for him.

I am an animal person and do OK when I have to out one down that is expected, but an unexpected loss adds shock to the equation and it is much harder.

Please don’t say this. You are not a generic Hallmark card. Agree with the rest. I swear ChatGPT could script better than DCUM most of the time.

Just be there for him. Do something nice for him like get his favorite take out and watch his favorite movie. Know he may be sad for a little bit.

Don’t worry it will come back as another cat or a demonic spirit.

I said the last sentence to explain why I wouldn't say anything else about it. Hence the word "because."

You could have just said the first sentence. Why would you say I hate cats on a pet forum? You don't have to share every thought!
