On another note. We have always loved our dogs to bits, but since they killed our cat, we just cannot look at them the same again.
Its been about 2 weeks now. We are still hurting. Ol Kitsy was very special to us. She was a friend to my 8 year old daughter and slept by my wife every night.
That's tough, so sad
The hurt is deep. We were so used to her in the room. I still look for her at times and then the reality kicks in.
Her favorite thing, was to wait behind the bed or door and then suddenly jump out at you. Skrik you arse off! 
She would sit on the edge of the bath every night and watch my wife bathing. Pussy looking at pussy... 
It's those things that we were so used to. Now it's all quiet and lonely in the room.
The most upsetting part is that I cannot get another one until our dogs are no more.
I feel your pain. My ex rescued a kitten against my wishes (I'm allergic to cats, and own a rotte and a boerboel that hate cats). But the little bugger crept into my heart. At first I named it Ding, because I didn't want it getting named and staying. That developed into Liefieding, and she would only sleep on top of me. Then a window was left open during the day, and since Liefieding was completely fearless, she went out to see what Tyson the rottie was up to.
I literally didn't sleep for two nights, because I kept hearing her calling outside, and I'd run out to go look.
I eventually found what was left of her about two weeks later in the corner of the garage where the asshole had hidden her.
The thing is, Tyson is a rottweiler. He's an amazing dog, loves children, and is super playful. I can't blame him for his hate of cats. He spent his first year on a 4 hectare property 20km out of town with lots of stray cats wandering in and out of the yard. I'm pretty sure one of them gave him a hard time when he was a puppy.
At least my ex learned to listen to me when I said no cats. The kids were devastated. But they also helped raise Tyson, so there were no long term hard feelings.
