What a touching story; I have tears in my eyes. You honoured Robin in a beautiful way! Your cartoons are amazing, but your description of your tiny little friend was so inspired and filled with love that I feel as though I got to share in a little part of him!

I’m so sorry for your loss and you supported him in the most loving way possible.

El otro día estaba pensando que ya había pasado mucho tiempo desde que no veía contenido tuyo, y bueno apareciste, otra vez con una historia desgarradora 😰😭🥺 jeje.

A veces pienso que no siempre hay una lección detrás de todo, inclusive con lo malo que nos hace sentirnos tristes, que sólo sucede y “shit happens”... quizás me equivoco o aún no lo descifro. Pero en lo personal agradezco que nos compartas estas historias tan bonitas, felices y tristes, espero que la ausencia sea más ligera, abrazo 🫂 y gracias de nuevo 🥰

I’m so sorry for your loss and grateful Robin had you there to hold and love him in his final moments. You are the angel who saved him from dying alone in that awful giant mansion. This made me miss my little dog, Mavi, so much. She passed years ago and I still feel her absence. Sending love to you. 💗

What a beautiful tribute to this little creature that brought so much joy. Being with you in his last year was what he needed, all that love. I have two cats and we nearly lost one this fall. It has been emotional and we were told his problem could re-occur and it was really difficult to hear. Sometimes our little creatures have their time... and when the time comes, if we let them go with love like you did, at least they died in the company of the people they knew and loved the most! ❤️ hugs to you.

Oh my god! I have said goodbye to beloved fur children in my arms and know the anguish of what that feels like. And your pain is so much more raw beacuse Robin was still a kitten. What a beautiful and expressive story of love. Lovely. My heart is with you.

this is so hard. So so hard. Yet so brave and kind and tender.

You mutually brought love to each other. Priceless time and presence.

Pets always seem vulnerable but they always show us that we are much more than them.

I hope you're doing well right now.
