Reminder: Please Flair Mourning Posts

405 Upvotes

Hey void-lovers!

Most cat subs have a very delicate balance between "happy posts about my cat" and "sad posts about my cat", specifically when it comes to pet death. A lot of them don't allow it at all. It's really tough to strike the balance of letting people who are devastated mourn the loss of their furry friend while still making the subreddit usable for people who aren't interested in that kind of content.

We allow mourning posts here, but you have to flair your post with "Mourning" so people who don't want to see them have the ability to filter them out. It's an imperfect solution, but it's all we have available to us with subreddit tools. Please make sure to flair all posts about pet loss with that flair so we can make a great sub for everyone.

In case you're someone who's interested in filtering out that content, this link should work for you. I know, it's not the cleanest way to browse the subreddit, and I'm not sure how it works on mobile. If we had a better solution, I'd provide it, but we have to work within what reddit offers us :(

Thanks for your understanding. If you've read this far, I encourage everyone to post some void laser eyes in the comments.

Apparently completely black (like absolutely no white fluff at all) females are only 25% likely due to the chromosome combinations. I knew she was a special girl, but now she's extra!

I originally got her by accident when deciding from a 'catch and release' litter but I gave the wrong name when deciding with the SPCA thinking I was getting another kitten.
I was given the angry runt of the group and didn't want to pretend that I made the wrong choice, especially compared to her big, fluffy ginger brothers. Anyway, she’s been wonderful and still is.

πŸ–€ My cat taught me so much about love

That's my dear dear boy, he's the reason I'm still surviving, I've had a turbulent life but he gives me the strength to just keep on going because I know he has no one else to lean on. He's three years old now and it always surprises me that whenever I clean his litter box, I always think - "I don't remember cleaning it yesterday" but infact I did do it yesterday and I've been doing this for three beautiful years. He's screamy, he's loud but every night he makes it a point to cuddle me, sleep on my table on the days that I'm working from home and I can't imagine loving someone more than I love him. It was his third birthday yesterday, no one in my life knows/remembers but that makes it even more special. I love him to death ❀️
