Woman Shares Pics Of Her And Her Cat In 1998 And 2018, And They Go Viral

A Reddit post recently went viral for how wholesome and sweet it is. A user known as Bellerose93 posted two pictures of her and her cat Fifi in 1998 and then in 2018. It’s amazing what a difference 20 years make. The post currently has 129k upvotes and a bunch of awards. The title reads: “Me and my old girl in 1998 and 2018.”

Sadly, Fifi is not with us anymore. She passed away in 2019: “She really was the sweetest old girl. Lost her last December, but we had 21 amazing years together so can’t complain,” said the owner in the comments.

“I didn’t know what life was like without my old girl—I didn’t really have any memories of living without her because I was so young myself when we got her.”

“I lost my mum when she was only in her fifties, and so it was just me and the cat for a while. It was hard when I lost her too, but it brought me a lot of closure and happiness knowing Fifi reached a good old age unlike my mum. She helped me deal with my loss so well, and she made both me and mum very happy for a very long time and I’ll always cherish those lovely memories.”

Other Reddit users were sharing kind words and sweet messages

“I agree with Hammose. Your furry best friend is out there waiting for you. Even if you don’t get twenty-one years together, it’s the quality of your time together that counts. I’ve been through a lot of loss but she was always there with me every step of the way”

“It’s true: she stayed forever a baby but I got older every day. Not that she ever noticed or cared”
