Sadness on loss

I'm sad.  It isn't even really my loss.  My friends lost a beloved kitty today.  He was sweet and beautiful and easy-going, and it was easy to love him even through the camera and from descriptions.  He was so loved.  And to die by getting out and getting hit by a car... He was injured enough to need to be put to sleep.

I need to virtually kill things.  This sucks.
