Our Ancient Street Cat Passed Away
Переглядів 3,636,451
2 роки томуHello friends! Unfortunately, we come bearing some sad news - our ancient ex-street-cat Crusty passed away a little while ago at the ripe old age of 21. So we decided to make a little memorial video for him here, as a celebration of his long, dusty life and how much he impacted ours. We met him back in 2015 on the streets, he was there when we started our channel - he judged my ugly clothing and lounged in a giant beanbag - and when we moved across the country, he came too. Tyler & I loved him like crazy, and we're gonna miss him like crazy - and we know that a lot of you guys will too.
A huge thanks to Shelby & Sandy for the really sick art piece - you can check them out here!

I really feel that. My older cat (I have two), who we adopted when she was 3 months old, is very smart. I came home one day feeling upset and just had to cry and she rubbed against my legs at first and then settled on my lap. I felt better almost instantly. She’s always up to something mischievous and I often complain about her antics but I really love her and don’t know what I’d do without her 😢

There was another cat named Dewey who lived in a small town library in Spencer Iowa in the 90's who was also a rescue like Crusty And he ended up passing away in 2006 from a tumor. There's a book on him as a joint project of another author and the librarian who raised him, that is to me, an extremely underrated bit of non-fiction

Absolutely. There's a lovely poem that is indeed about a dog. But tbh it applies to all pets it's called just a dog. And it talks about how dogs are special and people who say it's just a dog, Don't understand and Never will. It's a lovely poem. The same sentiment can apply to a cat a rabbit or any animal. No animal is ever just a.... They're family, they're our furry friends and companions and sometimes all we have in the darkness.

I am so grateful for people like you two who have love in your hearts for an animal that a lot of people wouldn’t have wanted, simply because he was old, unhealthy (at first) and “Crusty”. I subscribed to your channel tonight just because of your love, compassion, and gratitude for Crusty. What a wonderful gift of love you both gave to him that he returned in full to both of you.

Laughing, is a very positive way to cope. She tried not to cry, to be positive and light. I don't think its wrong to cope that way, In fact, it's a very healthy way to cope. I don't think crusty would be happy, to see his parents crying and completely broken. Instead we should celebrate that his in heaven, playful, and exicted there. Its so nothing is sad, heartbreaking, and difficult.

Fr. The things like "how are you still alive" are simply coping mechanisms. I hate that people pretend they know exactly how you should be feeling and say when they've only seen glimpse of their lives through a screen. I lost a cat to a fatal disease. She was a strong little angel when she pushed through the "1 day left to live" up to a whole week and during the whole time I was just wondering things like how is she still alive when she's already so frail. It's all just to cheer yourself up. We know our relationship with our family more than anyone do.

@Mothman_In_a_T-Pose 2 роки тому
Agreed! Pets are never "just a x". They're our family, our friends, our companions. They are a constant safe space and provide us joy, contentment, and love. When my dog passed away, it ruined me for a few weeks. It was a natural, expected death and he went out in his usual considerate way (this was the kind of dog who would only poop near trashcans on walks; we never trained him to do this), and it was objectively an "easy" death. But my dog had been my rock and my home for so long, it was like losing a piece of myself. He was like my unofficial emotional support animal, who had gotten me through so much. My entire life upended when I lost him. He wasn't just a dog; he was my family.

The people that have never bonded with an animal will never understand it, but those of us who have loved and been loved in return by another creature will always understand wholeheartedly the feeling.

You can cherish that, knowing that he chose you to spend that time with. Both of my cats were strays, and chose me, and I think that makes me appreciate them even more. Having also lost numerous pets over the years, I can understand how hard it is to say goodbye. I loved seeing all the footage with Crusty, he lives on in the digital world.

If I may - Crusty is not “just a cat.” He’s your cat and you loved him and he matters. You don’t owe any of us an explanation or justification for how much you love & miss him.

@sloanjulia17 2 роки тому
exactly. I think the hardest thing for me to comprehend with the pet/human relationship is that our timelines are different, that’s about it. They love as hard as we do, they get as sad as we do, they’re a part of our families as much as any person (my mom considered our dog Mike a sibling 😂, she even called him Michael when he needed to be scolded and he definitely learned that when his “full name” was being used, he was in trouble). They’re so much more than an animal and I don’t think anyone who says otherwise has even been as attached to a pet the way I have been or the way Saf and Tyler are to Crusty

I had a cat buddy for years, all through college. Then my family took him on when I couldn't bring him with me. He attached to my brother.

My wife and I lost our cat of only 6 years yesterday. His name was Astro, he came to us when we had started dating as well, and he was the sweetest cuddle bug that only wanted to spend as much time as possible with his two moms. It hurts so much to come home and not see him there, but to constantly be reminded of where he used to be. Watching this video helps us out a lot, focusing on the good memories and processing and accepting our loss. We've always loved your content and Astro would even sit on the couch with us while your videos were playing. I hope you know how much your content means to us. Miranda & Jen

Loosing a cat or any sort of pet is equal to loosing a family member. People may disagree with that but it’s true. People can break down mentally when an animal that they love dies. I am so sorry about Crusty and know your pain, because I’ve had a cat that I love taken away from me and though he’s still alive it’s so unbelievably horrible. I also think it’s very brave for you to tell his story to millions of people on the internet since I know that must of hurt.
