Will his heart break?

When all of us were gathered around Chance this morning, before Buds and I left for the vet, Yessa looked at me and said, “Will his heart break, you know, when they put him to sleep?”

I explained to her what would happen, but realized later, Chance’s heart wouldn’t break, but ours would…

Sweet, sweet, gentle, patient cat…my heart is feeling so achy.
