Heartbroken and destroyed further.


Found out a cat named Ollie that I fed and trying to get off the streets for many years ...


Was hit and killed today or maybe last night....


And they left him there....


Maybe he was still alive afterwards....even if he wasn't..they left him.


I just spent time with him yesterday....if I had known....I would have tried to spend more or something....


I had someone coming to collect his remains to bury him... Unfortunately they couldn't get here in time and the garbage collectors came, bagged up his remains and threw them in the truck....


Like he was nothing...


He wasn't garbage.


He hated and was scared of plastic bags...smh.. now he wind up in one...


I wish I could have saved you Oliver.....


It's all my fault..


Can't stop crying and further spiraling.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Ollie, and I can only imagine the pain you must be going through right now. It's clear that you cared deeply for him and did your best to help him. It's not your fault, please don't blame yourself for this tragic event. You showed him love and compassion, and that means a lot..

It's natural to feel overwhelmed with grief and sadness, but don't hesitate to reach out to friends or a support network for comfort during this difficult time. Ollie was lucky to have you in his life, and the bond you shared will always be a special and cherished memory.

Take your time to grieve and remember Ollie in your own way. You are not alone in your sorrow, and there are people who care about you and understand the pain you're experiencing. Please be gentle (don't beat yourself up!) with yourself during this time. 🫶
