This is a tangent to this post, but...

I happen to have a cat named Kiki who looks rather like the mascot for this project. Her health is failing, now. I just spent the night on my living room floor next to her. I'll, likely have to put her down, today.

I might use this project to make a memorial page for her.

Oh geez -- we went recently through this with our tuxedo, who sadly passed a few years ago. I am glad you'll be able to give her the peace she needs.

The kiki this software is named after, is an extremely rambunctious rotten kitten whom we adopted after our tuxedo passed away.

I'm sorry you're dealing with this. I had an orange tabby also named Kiki for most of my childhood through early adulthood, 16 years. He suffered from kidney failure and it was a sad day when we had to put him down.

May you have peace during this time.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. She’s very cute.

Dedicating a project to her sounds like a great idea.

If you use Reddit, I can also highly recommend the r/petloss subreddit for a bit of “group therapy”. It was very helpful for me a couple years ago.

I'm sorry to hear about Kiki. She's very beautiful, thanks for sharing.

She reminds me of my tuxedo cat Bob who recently passed. I remember laying down all night in the comfort room before he had to be put down and sobbing knowing how much pain he was in. It's really hard.

I think a memorial site is a lovely idea, I created one for my cat as well: https://bob.duchastel.com

May her passing be a gentle one.

For what it's worth, a random person on the internet just shed a tear for the both of you.

Wishing you peace during this time — and thank you for cherishing Kiki as much as you have. A memorial page is a nice way to honor her.

That sucks, sorry about Kiki. Nothing sucks more than losing a cat.

I'm so sorry. Sending you and Kiki love today.

Oh man. That really stinks. Losing a pet is hard. Hang in there.
