BitMaster Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) I had to put my beloved cat Paul to sleep yesterday :( The best Wingmen I ever had, the best friend one could hope for. On more than one occasion he walked across my keyboard and hit the space bar while engaged and locked on, achieving the first cat-made air combat kill in cat-history. Paul, I will miss you Love & Peace Lars "Bitmaster" Edited August 26, 2014 by BitMaster Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Sapphire Nitro+ 7800XT - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus XG27ACG QHD 180Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X

RagnarDa Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Yes it's horrible losing a friend like that. Makes you think it isn't worth it to go through it again by getting a new friend. But it is, and there are so many cats that needs a home. For a cat, Paul probably had a very good life. RIP Paul. DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs.

mig29movt Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Mein Beileid.... Our cat 2000-2012, never returned back home... Our beloved Border-Collie 1999-Sep. 2013, lost his will to be alive within a matter of days... I was born in 1990, they were friends and companions during all this time. It's amazing how one can relate with his pets. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Waiting to build a F/A-18C home-pit... ex - Swiss Air Force Pilatus PC-21 Ground Crew SFM? AFM? EFM??

BitMaster Posted August 28, 2014 Author Posted August 28, 2014 Thank you all ! The hardest part for me, was to decide ... I may not be God and rule over life & death, but as a friend you have to make decisions for the best of your friend and not hang on to ones own wishes and dreams that will not be reality. That, is the hardest part in taking responsibility. I once heard a very wise native indian chief saying: "A warrior, who has lost the capability to cry is no man, he lost dignity, respect, love and empathy for the world he lives in" Paul Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Sapphire Nitro+ 7800XT - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus XG27ACG QHD 180Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X
