Step 1: don’t cry Step 2: don’t you dare do it Step 3 try not to cry Step 4: please don’t cry Step 5: except that your human and you need to cry. Cry yourself to sleep
So what I understand is that it's a story about a ghost cat haunting their owner because they can't move on from their cat's death. Then one day the owner gets a dog and stops mourning about his cat. The cat tries to pull tricks to remind their owner about them, but in the end, the owner manages to move on with their new companion and the cat passes on, given how they're no longer needed. You are a master of storytelling, my friend.
Mimzy idk why but your comment made me feel better. Because it made me think the cat was there to keep him company but now he is happy again the cat can rest
This interpretation made me happy. The cat realizes that she can finally move on, because he's not keeping her in his thoughts anymore. She's at peace.
ME TOOOO IM FRICKEN CRYING THE HELL OUT OF MY EYES NOW THEY'RE LIKE THE OCEANS AND I LOVE THIS ANIMATION SOOOOOO MUCHHHH I LOVE IIT OMG ITS SO SAD AND I L I VE IT AND THE FADING PART WAS SO SAD BUT WHEN THE KITTY SAT ON HIS HEAD IT WAS RLLY CUTE OMG IM TALKING IN WOMANE HELPP
Omfg I'm ugly sobbing at 2 am and it's because of this. This reminds me of my cat Jack, who was raised with me/raised me. He was a kitten and I was a baby, he used to sleep with me in my crib. He would sit on my lap in my car seat, and he was amazing. When I was crying as a baby, he would stay with me and star (other cat who passed on early) would get my mom. Our cats were somewhat trained, they could open easy doors, (the pull down handles and push) and they knew when I was sad. As I grew up Jack would always lay in my lap and would have his front half over my left leg and he would fall asleep. Not to mention his purr was SO LOUD. We had to turn up the tv volume whenever he purred- which was often. When he turned 11, we found out he had started developing arthritis. This was also around the time I began developing my heart illness and depression. He would stay by me and purr and purr. God I'm crying while writing this, I'm known for being apathetic yet my darn cat has got me crying haha. I loved him so much. By the time he was 13, we noticed he was getting more I'll and more in pain. He would attack anyone near him other then me because of his pain. Over time he got worse and worse. Last spring break he passed, I was by his side the whole time. And so was his half brother, Yoda. I think Yoda knew what happened as he was right by my side instead of my mothers. Oh boy I'm crying really badly now I can barely read what I'm writing oh boy. I haven't cried in a few years, I didn't cry back then even though I was sad, I don't think I could've. I loved him so much and I still do. I wish I spent more time with him, I wish I could hear his loud arse purr again, I think then, I could be truly happy. Rest in Paradise, Jack.
I swear, I started crying as soon as I saw that the cat was a ghost. And by that I mean ugly crying. I'm still crying. I hate this but I also love it very much, your art is great (AND TERRIBLY SAD)
I am a heartless human who never cries because of "really sad videos". But this video crushed my tiny nonexistent heart, Jesus Christ good job. I feel the need to hug all of my cats now.
I love this animatic despite how bitter sweet it is. From what I can tell, the story is of the cat's owner who hasn't gotten over their cat's death. They're haunted by their cat's memory and eventually get a dog. The dog helps the owner move on so the cat can finally rest and also move on. Aaaaaand now I'm crying haha. It's good that the cat got to finally fade away even if it is heartbreaking. It makes me think of two cats I've had in the past. My first cat was with me for eleven years (since I was a toddler) and when he died it felt like a piece of me was missing. I got a kitten a while after and she's lovely (I still have her today) although she is a trouble maker. But there was a stray cat my family took in and it took weeks to finally convince my dad to let us keep him after trying desperately to find the owner. But shortly after my dad agreed the cat ended up getting hit by a car. I'm glad I had my kitten to help me through that. Sorry for this ramble. Again, this animatic is wonderful
watching this made me realize how old my cat is, I've had since I was six. I'm 17 now and it's hard to think about the fact that she's gonna pass away in the up coming years, this makes me so sad but it's so beautiful
hears cracking noises, then looks around house to see what happened but then I looked in the mirror and noticed that nothing happened but my heart breaking. This is so beautiful.
My daughter wanted me to comment on her behalf. We lost our white kitty 5 years ago when my daughter was 4 and this video sent her into a crying fit. We love and still miss you, sweet Heidi. 😔
This is one of those times where I watch something, feel my heart break, but not be able to cry. Strange.. This really hit the feels though. The ending really got to me.. qnq This is an amazing animatic
Ahhhhhhhhh the ending broke my heart D: My cat died less than a year ago and i miss him so much, even more now. He was such a cuddler, now i think hes right beside me always. I recently got a new one too, shes such a kind cat, always giving me bumps on my nose. This video was such a beautiful animatic, whoever dislikes is doesn't have a heart.
i've been ghosting, i've been ghosting along ghost in your house, ghost in your arms when you're tossing, when you turn in your sleep it's because i'm ghosting your dreams and this is why i have decided to pull these old white sheets from my head i'll leave them folded neat and tidy so that you'll know i'm out of hiding i've been ghosting, i've been ghosting along ghost in the world, ghost with no home i remember, i remember the days when i'd make you oh-so afraid and this is why i have decided to leave your house and home unhaunted you don't need poltergeists for sidekicks you don't need treats and you don't need tricks you don't need treats you don't need tricks you don't need no halloween you don't need treats you don't need tricks and you don't need me me hey, would it be so bad if i stayed i'm just a ghost out of his grave and i can't make love in my grave i won't put white into your hair i won't make noises in your stairs i will be kind and i'll be sweet if you stop staring straight through me and this is why i have decided to pull these old white sheets from my head i'll leave them folded neat and tidy so that you'll know i'm out of hiding and this is why i have decided to leave your house and home unhaunted you don't need poltergeists for sidekicks you don't need treats and you don't need tricks you don't need treats you don't need tricks you don't need no halloween you don't need treats you don't need tricks you don't need treats you don't need no hallows eve you don't need treats you don't need tricks and you don't need me
Anyone else cried towards the end? I'm still in tears whenever I watch this, it reminds me of my old cat I had as a kid.. she died a few years ago and i got a dog, and now i feel so bad... ;-;
me: haha! I didn't cry! But still, when my dog dies I'm never getting a new one my thoughts: what if he dies and you get a new dog and he keeps trying to give you a sign that he's still there but you don't realize it's him? me:... *crying*
Me watching this again after a week after watching it for the first time: okay I won't cry this time Me eight seconds into the video: [currently bawling eyes out like the mess I am ]
i cant stop thinking abt my cat :') shes not dead or anything, i just think about how much i love her. i think about how much i should appreciate her and take care of her. no matter how annoying she is or how bad her behaviour is, i should always love her. mimi, i love you. i always will. i'll never forget you. you were my first cat ever. i'll always look back on the good times. i love you so much. i look forward to spending the next few years with you ❤️
... My cat died a week ago, she was 16 years old. I had her since I was two years old and so she was there through it all. She would always come and comfort me when I was feeling lonely, sad and anxious :( I miss her so so so much :( This video just reminded me of her :(
This is bittersweet because it reminds me of my cat who died at the beginning of quarantine and who i think is protecting me from all the bad things as a ghost. Crap now im crying. I knew her since i was a kid and when she died i exiled myself into my room to mourn. My other cat was mourning as well and we both honored her memory. When we got a new cat, My other cat felt better and i think He tells my new cat about his old friend who was a tough nut to crack but was very sweet and kind on the inside. Rest Well, Satchi
Oh wtf this made me ugly cry. I read the comments and then started crying again. I came back and watched this and teared up at the exact same time. The way you draw the cat is amazing, it really captures just... the day to day cat stuff. Things like when it slept on its back with its head by its chest or when it was rolling in the grass brought to my mind so many of my own and other's cats, past and present. Absolutely phenomenal.
6 years ago I found this animatic, because I was so young I didn’t really understand the intent behind it. Over the years it’s popped into my mind a couple times and gradually I’ve understood the intent behind it, but never fully. Now it is safe to say that I do.
i have never owned a cat but i love my dog so much and she is sleeping beside me as i am watching this and there are real tears flowing down my face i'm SAD
Oh my gosh I am crying Plus this is old. This hit me hard as I lost my cat last month. Though I don't know what happened to him. But I guess it's nice to think my cat is a ghost following me around. By the way i don't know if you will see this but great good it looks nice!
I lost my Luna August 10th, 2020. only 5 days after my birthday. I swear to God, she was a literal angel. And she was so, so smart. She somehow knew whenever I was upset or sick, because she would always come to me and force snuggles until I felt better. When I was younger I loved running barefoot in our huge lawn anytime it was freshly mown, and she would always play with me. She'd let me use her as a pillow (she was a bigger cat so it didn't hurt her), and so much more. I loved her so much, so when she passed it really left me heart broken. Especially since she was only 4 years old. She spent the entire last week of her life in an animal hospital. And I only got to visit her once. But she waited until I got to see her. She pushed through until I was able to let her know that it was okay for her to go. A few days after she passed, I got to pick out some flowers to plant around her grave, and they've ended up spreading across a huge part of our yard :) I still really miss her. I have two cats now, Ophelia and Sushi, who I love dearly but I don't think it will ever be the same.
It was a while ago since I did this so my numbers might be off, but I think I spent about a week or two (with lots of breaks in between) for the whole video cause it was a final for class. On each drawing, I think I spent somewhere between 10-20 minutes ^^
okay so, I only watch this video and listen to the song once a year because it has always made me break and I feel the need to save that feeling. every year I feel worse. this video is so beautiful. I hope it all gets better one day.
you’re giving ptsd from my dog that died two years ago and still cry over cause she was my only good girl i’ve ever had cause she was legit in my family before i was born edit: i really miss my good girl and i hope she knows that edit again: i want my good girl back so hecking bad i just wanna talk about the things i could tell my dog before and now after she’s dead cause when my parents put her down they didn’t tell me- i really wished i petted you more before you passed but you were so skinny and i felt guilty looking at you cause you barely had the energy to go to your pee pad cause you couldn’t control your bladder anymore and i felt uncomfortable touching you cause i thought you would snapped and i hate how mom and dad were making jokes about putting you down soon, i know they probably didn’t know that they would be actually putting you down soon but at least they made me realize i should cherish and takes some pictures of you before you go and now i have like five pics of you and one random video and you were so skinny and just bones but i took some before you ended up like that and you were so cute and i’ll keep them forever even though it feels weird knowing you will never pee on the living room carpet again but i still have pictures of you sitting on it even though we had to get hardwood cause you got it all dirty and stained lol. i found your collar like a year ago and mom said “i guess it’s about time to get rid of this” and i cried my eyes out for a while and i think i hid it in my room somewhere so she couldn’t but i don’t really remember where lmao but maybe i’ll find it when i go to college in a couple of years, also high school is hard and i wish you were here to help me through it cause the cats aren’t always inside the house when i get home, even though you probably wouldn’t have the energy to do anything, it would still be nice just to have you here again, also big boy (one of my cats) got a lot skinner, i can’t tell if it’s bc of you or this summer heat but i’m worried that we aren’t giving him enough love and he’s depressed or something, but i’ll make sure to give him extra love. i liked it when you actually had energy in the morning and would jump around the cats, it was so cute, i still have a memory where you were all jumpy around tigger (my other cat) and i hope i never forget it as time past cause it was the only memory i have where you actually seemed happy to be alive and weren’t just a standing skeleton in the kitchen, also cause you only got to eat one can of the wet dog food we got for you cause you couldn’t eat the hard, dry kind anymore, we gave it to the dog jack babysits sometimes it felt weird giving them away cause they were meant for you, but you couldn’t eat it cause you were gone and even though i told people you were mean and stuff i still loved you with all my heart and i don’t know if i can handle getting a dog again, i think i’ll see how i handle tigger and big boy going and see if i can handle that cause i really been using them to help me mentally. also i got a boyfriend finally! and he’s really nice and actually respects and cares for me, you would’ve still bit him either way probably lmao. i probably won’t take him out to your grave unless he asks too cause that’s kinda weird but we just had our three month anniversary on the 15 of February. also people are starting to get use to and actually not feel uncomfortable when i make dead dog jokes lmao, i use to cry afterwards whenever i made them whenever i was alone, also you know i cried for about a month straight every night whenever you passed, ig i loved you more then i thought, even though i didn’t show it lol. also the family is doing alright, dad said we are never getting another dog and that’s understandable, i think it hit the family really hard whenever you past , and gosh dang did you live a long life, you lived for 17 years and i got to be in 14 of them! and wow i’m almost 16 gosh dang, anyways i really miss you and i wish you could read this cause i just want to tell you goodbye and i hope we gave you a better life then when you were eating our neighbors trash lol you nasty girl, i hope you loved us as much as we loved you and you can never be replaced and there’s a little doggy piece missing in my heart from you, please have a good afterlife or whatever happens after you pass even if there is nothing bc i just want the best for you, we all miss you rat dog and goodbye.
I almost didn't watch this because 'Ghosting' is one of those songs I need to be in a really specific mood for, but I'm so glad I did. I'm bawling my eyes out, but that's was so sweet and beautiful.
Every time I watch this I burst into tears because it reminds me of my cat who passed away in my arms a year and a half ago. You have made a masterpiece, my friend.
this is so beautifully done!! the style goes very well with the music and the story is very fitting, this is so heartwarming yet so heartbreaking at the same time, poor kitty
I saw the cat and my tears just started falling like waterfalls, it felt like someone punched me in the gut, but emotionally. I have my cat buried in our front yard, I held her body and refused to let her get cold until I had to bury her, she had health problems and was always cold, so she was always seeking warmth because she hated the cold. It's been 2 years, and I still cry when I think about her. Thank you for this, I really hope my Petunia lived a happy life with us. I have another cat that I rescued, they kept each other company for a while before my Petu died, and she was also very depressed after that so we adopted another kitten, now there are 2 happy cats in my house, and another one that will be remembered and loved as long as I live.
I find this so sad and relatable. My dog was recently put down, so like in this animatic, it's easy to picture him walking around and interacting but we never know. We just see our new cat. This was super realistic, and deserves more attention.
Gosh this is gorgeous. The art is wonderful. The story is simple yet great. The zoom in on the cat's face made me laugh and the last line nearly made me tear up.
this means so much to me im literally sobbing. this hits so close to home. i had to put my kitten down earlier this year due to an injury we couldn’t afford the surgery to fix, and it wrecked me. this hit so close to my heart and i miss him so much, but this made me so happy and sad all at once. thank you for creating this!
I'm on my way to the hospital to get surgery and this song really helps calm me down. The work that went into this animation is astounding and I really love the story line!
step1: lie down
step2:don't cry
step3:cry alot
meme generate nightmares I failed at step 1
Read that backwards
Step 1: don’t cry
Step 2: don’t you dare do it
Step 3 try not to cry
Step 4: please don’t cry
Step 5: except that your human and you need to cry. Cry yourself to sleep
I was the 666th like and I've been crying a lot, do I have a curse on me now?
meme generate nightmares step 4: press replay and start back at step 3
So what I understand is that it's a story about a ghost cat haunting their owner because they can't move on from their cat's death. Then one day the owner gets a dog and stops mourning about his cat.

You are a master of storytelling, my friend.
oh no this made me cry even more omg
Mimzy idk why but your comment made me feel better. Because it made me think the cat was there to keep him company but now he is happy again the cat can rest
This comment made me feel better thank you
This interpretation made me happy. The cat realizes that she can finally move on, because he's not keeping her in his thoughts anymore. She's at peace.
Mimzy I feel as though the trick and treating part are meant to be memories, rather than the cat trying to be noticed after the dog arrived.
*screams inhumane noises of sadness*

Omfg I'm ugly sobbing at 2 am and it's because of this.
This reminds me of my cat Jack, who was raised with me/raised me. He was a kitten and I was a baby, he used to sleep with me in my crib. He would sit on my lap in my car seat, and he was amazing. When I was crying as a baby, he would stay with me and star (other cat who passed on early) would get my mom.
Our cats were somewhat trained, they could open easy doors, (the pull down handles and push) and they knew when I was sad. As I grew up Jack would always lay in my lap and would have his front half over my left leg and he would fall asleep. Not to mention his purr was SO LOUD. We had to turn up the tv volume whenever he purred- which was often.
When he turned 11, we found out he had started developing arthritis. This was also around the time I began developing my heart illness and depression. He would stay by me and purr and purr. God I'm crying while writing this, I'm known for being apathetic yet my darn cat has got me crying haha. I loved him so much.
By the time he was 13, we noticed he was getting more I'll and more in pain. He would attack anyone near him other then me because of his pain. Over time he got worse and worse. Last spring break he passed, I was by his side the whole time. And so was his half brother, Yoda. I think Yoda knew what happened as he was right by my side instead of my mothers.
Oh boy I'm crying really badly now I can barely read what I'm writing oh boy. I haven't cried in a few years, I didn't cry back then even though I was sad, I don't think I could've. I loved him so much and I still do. I wish I spent more time with him, I wish I could hear his loud arse purr again, I think then, I could be truly happy.
Rest in Paradise, Jack.
D:> im crying now also hi from the present
EXCUSE ME, DID I REQUEST TEARS AND EMOTIONS?! NO I DAMN DIDDLY DIDN'T. TAKE THEM BACK, I-NO NO NO, OH GOD THEY'RE BACK. TEARS GET AWAYYYYYYYYY
Creek Pine your word choice is phenomenal 😂 "NO I DAMN DIDDLY DIDN'T." 😂I'm sorry but that's just funny to me...

I swear, I started crying as soon as I saw that the cat was a ghost. And by that I mean ugly crying. I'm still crying. I hate this but I also love it very much, your art is great (AND TERRIBLY SAD)
If you pay close attention, you can tell that the cat is always atleast slightly transparent.
Take care of my human until my return, they will get lonely, they know where to scratch behind the ears. So take care of my human until my return
Sara Devlin wow just as I thought "I managed to get through this without crying" I saw this comment and it tipped me over the edge haha
Sketchy Rebel thanks i just managed to stop crying and after i saw this comment i started cryong again...
THIS BROKE MY HEART OH MY GOD
WHY ISNT THIS MORE POPULAR PEOPLE NEED TO SEE THIS
I am a heartless human who never cries because of "really sad videos". But this video crushed my tiny nonexistent heart, Jesus Christ good job. I feel the need to hug all of my cats now.
Saaaameee
My family has two dog, one of them died 3 months ago. Maybe his soul still ghostling everywhere in the house and watching us...This makes me sad.
He died by a car accident, we never has a change to say goodbye..u know
+Truc Thanh I know I'm soooo late, but I know how you feel. :'(
Trúc Thanh I’m ssuuuper late but I had to say, my dog recently died. This made me have the feels soOO bad.

hears cracking noises, then looks around house to see what happened but then I looked in the mirror and noticed that nothing happened but my heart breaking.
This is so beautiful.

after the part where the cat had completely faded away
i held my chest tight
and yelled : *"O W"*
"Im not crying."
"I have something in my eye"
daniel_boi 4455
What is it?
TEARS
Have known of this for three years and come back periodically every year. Still love it, and it still breaks my heart
Goddamit,this is so beatiful!And so sad!The song goes so well with the art style!Man,i love mother mother and i love this animatic!
Anyone else cried towards the end? I'm still in tears whenever I watch this, it reminds me of my old cat I had as a kid.. she died a few years ago and i got a dog, and now i feel so bad... ;-;
me: haha! I didn't cry! But still, when my dog dies I'm never getting a new one
my thoughts: what if he dies and you get a new dog and he keeps trying to give you a sign that he's still there but you don't realize it's him?
me:... *crying*
saw the ghost cat and IMMEDIATELY burst into tears how could you
Me watching this again after a week after watching it for the first time: okay I won't cry this time
Me eight seconds into the video: [currently bawling eyes out like the mess I am ]
i cant stop thinking abt my cat :')
shes not dead or anything, i just think about how much i love her. i think about how much i should appreciate her and take care of her. no matter how annoying she is or how bad her behaviour is, i should always love her. mimi, i love you. i always will. i'll never forget you. you were my first cat ever. i'll always look back on the good times. i love you so much. i look forward to spending the next few years with you ❤️
... My cat died a week ago, she was 16 years old. I had her since I was two years old and so she was there through it all. She would always come and comfort me when I was feeling lonely, sad and anxious :( I miss her so so so much :( This video just reminded me of her :(
I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the best video in UA-cam ever.
My all time favorite and now it has this awesome animation! So beautiful ♡
this is the saddest one yet oh my god i felt my chest get so heavy
why am I crying jfc
This hit me hard because I lost my cat not so long ago lol. Thank you. As odd as it may sound, I actually needed this.
me: okay, judging by the title, there'll be a ghost. sad but i don't think i'll cry.
*ghost is a cat*
me: *//GROSS SOBBING//*
This is bittersweet because it reminds me of my cat who died at the beginning of quarantine and who i think is protecting me from all the bad things as a ghost. Crap now im crying. I knew her since i was a kid and when she died i exiled myself into my room to mourn. My other cat was mourning as well and we both honored her memory. When we got a new cat, My other cat felt better and i think He tells my new cat about his old friend who was a tough nut to crack but was very sweet and kind on the inside.
Rest Well, Satchi
When you actually cry while watching
Oh wtf this made me ugly cry. I read the comments and then started crying again. I came back and watched this and teared up at the exact same time.
The way you draw the cat is amazing, it really captures just... the day to day cat stuff. Things like when it slept on its back with its head by its chest or when it was rolling in the grass brought to my mind so many of my own and other's cats, past and present.
Absolutely phenomenal.
My guinea pig died yesterday and I hope she's a little ghost pig watching over me waiting for me to feel better so she can move on and be happy
1. Oh wow, an animation!
2. Wait, a cat ghost..
3. **loud crying sounds**
4. Cat disappears
5. **lying in a pool of tears**
I'm crying so much I'm not kidding
6 years ago I found this animatic, because I was so young I didn’t really understand the intent behind it. Over the years it’s popped into my mind a couple times and gradually I’ve understood the intent behind it, but never fully.
Now it is safe to say that I do.
i have never owned a cat but i love my dog so much and she is sleeping beside me as i am watching this and there are real tears flowing down my face i'm SAD
Yesterday, I went to a Mother Mother concert. I discovered the band with this video, and I need to say thanks to the creator of it. THANKS
UGH THE FEELS! xD
years later this animatic still makes me cry, this animatic means so much to me and I wanted to finally say that
ohh me gusto mucho, el gato es super lindo!! y la idea de un gato fantasma es genial!
I thought I was ready to watch this again without crying
Oh my gosh I am crying
Plus this is old.
This hit me hard as I lost my cat last month. Though I don't know what happened to him. But I guess it's nice to think my cat is a ghost following me around.
By the way i don't know if you will see this but great good it looks nice!
I lost my Luna August 10th, 2020. only 5 days after my birthday. I swear to God, she was a literal angel. And she was so, so smart. She somehow knew whenever I was upset or sick, because she would always come to me and force snuggles until I felt better. When I was younger I loved running barefoot in our huge lawn anytime it was freshly mown, and she would always play with me. She'd let me use her as a pillow (she was a bigger cat so it didn't hurt her), and so much more. I loved her so much, so when she passed it really left me heart broken. Especially since she was only 4 years old. She spent the entire last week of her life in an animal hospital. And I only got to visit her once. But she waited until I got to see her. She pushed through until I was able to let her know that it was okay for her to go. A few days after she passed, I got to pick out some flowers to plant around her grave, and they've ended up spreading across a huge part of our yard :) I still really miss her. I have two cats now, Ophelia and Sushi, who I love dearly but I don't think it will ever be the same.
ahhh!! i love this song and this video made me love it even more!! ❤️❤️
question: how long did each drawing take you?
It was a while ago since I did this so my numbers might be off, but I think I spent about a week or two (with lots of breaks in between) for the whole video cause it was a final for class. On each drawing, I think I spent somewhere between 10-20 minutes ^^
The invisible onion chopping ninjas are back, with a *VENGEANCE*
IM NOT CRYING FUCK
This is the most saddest animatic I've ever seen, just waow
Ow
okay so, I only watch this video and listen to the song once a year because it has always made me break and I feel the need to save that feeling. every year I feel worse. this video is so beautiful. I hope it all gets better one day.
This was so beautiful and sad and touching and I can't stop crying!
i started crying as soon as i realized the cat was a ghost. like, full on bawling.
you’re giving ptsd from my dog that died two years ago and still cry over cause she was my only good girl i’ve ever had cause she was legit in my family before i was born
edit:
i really miss my good girl and i hope she knows that
edit again:
i want my good girl back so hecking bad
i just wanna talk about the things i could tell my dog before and now after she’s dead cause when my parents put her down they didn’t tell me-
i really wished i petted you more before you passed but you were so skinny and i felt guilty looking at you cause you barely had the energy to go to your pee pad cause you couldn’t control your bladder anymore and i felt uncomfortable touching you cause i thought you would snapped and i hate how mom and dad were making jokes about putting you down soon, i know they probably didn’t know that they would be actually putting you down soon but at least they made me realize i should cherish and takes some pictures of you before you go and now i have like five pics of you and one random video and you were so skinny and just bones but i took some before you ended up like that and you were so cute and i’ll keep them forever even though it feels weird knowing you will never pee on the living room carpet again but i still have pictures of you sitting on it even though we had to get hardwood cause you got it all dirty and stained lol. i found your collar like a year ago and mom said “i guess it’s about time to get rid of this” and i cried my eyes out for a while and i think i hid it in my room somewhere so she couldn’t but i don’t really remember where lmao but maybe i’ll find it when i go to college in a couple of years, also high school is hard and i wish you were here to help me through it cause the cats aren’t always inside the house when i get home, even though you probably wouldn’t have the energy to do anything, it would still be nice just to have you here again, also big boy (one of my cats) got a lot skinner, i can’t tell if it’s bc of you or this summer heat but i’m worried that we aren’t giving him enough love and he’s depressed or something, but i’ll make sure to give him extra love. i liked it when you actually had energy in the morning and would jump around the cats, it was so cute, i still have a memory where you were all jumpy around tigger (my other cat) and i hope i never forget it as time past cause it was the only memory i have where you actually seemed happy to be alive and weren’t just a standing skeleton in the kitchen, also cause you only got to eat one can of the wet dog food we got for you cause you couldn’t eat the hard, dry kind anymore, we gave it to the dog jack babysits sometimes it felt weird giving them away cause they were meant for you, but you couldn’t eat it cause you were gone and even though i told people you were mean and stuff i still loved you with all my heart and i don’t know if i can handle getting a dog again, i think i’ll see how i handle tigger and big boy going and see if i can handle that cause i really been using them to help me mentally. also i got a boyfriend finally! and he’s really nice and actually respects and cares for me, you would’ve still bit him either way probably lmao. i probably won’t take him out to your grave unless he asks too cause that’s kinda weird but we just had our three month anniversary on the 15 of February. also people are starting to get use to and actually not feel uncomfortable when i make dead dog jokes lmao, i use to cry afterwards whenever i made them whenever i was alone, also you know i cried for about a month straight every night whenever you passed, ig i loved you more then i thought, even though i didn’t show it lol. also the family is doing alright, dad said we are never getting another dog and that’s understandable, i think it hit the family really hard whenever you past , and gosh dang did you live a long life, you lived for 17 years and i got to be in 14 of them! and wow i’m almost 16 gosh dang, anyways i really miss you and i wish you could read this cause i just want to tell you goodbye and i hope we gave you a better life then when you were eating our neighbors trash lol you nasty girl, i hope you loved us as much as we loved you and you can never be replaced and there’s a little doggy piece missing in my heart from you, please have a good afterlife or whatever happens after you pass even if there is nothing bc i just want the best for you, we all miss you rat dog and goodbye.
WHY DOES THIS VIDEO HURT ME SO MUCH...IM NOT CRYING YOU ARE.
Oh god, watching this 3 and a half hours after my mum ran over a cat with me in the car
dragondoglover123 holy shit, dude.
i'm hoping that it wasn't on purpose and that your mother also did the legal things you have to do after running over a cat
this video has made me cry at least a hundred time no joke, its so beautiful and it always makes me just spit out those locked up emotions
I almost didn't watch this because 'Ghosting' is one of those songs I need to be in a really specific mood for, but I'm so glad I did. I'm bawling my eyes out, but that's was so sweet and beautiful.
Every time I watch this I burst into tears because it reminds me of my cat who passed away in my arms a year and a half ago.
You have made a masterpiece, my friend.
this is so beautifully done!! the style goes very well with the music and the story is very fitting, this is so heartwarming yet so heartbreaking at the same time, poor kitty
Like, still. The moment the cat fades away is the part that makes me ugly cry
it's so cute but at the same time so sad I love it!!!
Congratulations, this is the first ever form of media to make me cry.
not gonna lie this made me cry woah
I've thought of this video every time I listen to this song for 8 years and it devastates me every time
I ugly cry every time I watch this, the art is so well made and it hits me right in the heart
oh my god when the song went "and you don't need me..." and the cat faded away I legit teared up that was so sad this is such a nice animatic
im crying, this emotionally hurt
This is so good but I genuinely don't think a single other video movie or book has made me sadder???? Good job!
I saw the cat and my tears just started falling like waterfalls, it felt like someone punched me in the gut, but emotionally. I have my cat buried in our front yard, I held her body and refused to let her get cold until I had to bury her, she had health problems and was always cold, so she was always seeking warmth because she hated the cold. It's been 2 years, and I still cry when I think about her. Thank you for this, I really hope my Petunia lived a happy life with us. I have another cat that I rescued, they kept each other company for a while before my Petu died, and she was also very depressed after that so we adopted another kitten, now there are 2 happy cats in my house, and another one that will be remembered and loved as long as I live.
I came back, it didn’t even have to start for me to already have tears in my eyes
I find this so sad and relatable. My dog was recently put down, so like in this animatic, it's easy to picture him walking around and interacting but we never know. We just see our new cat. This was super realistic, and deserves more attention.
Gosh this is gorgeous. The art is wonderful. The story is simple yet great. The zoom in on the cat's face made me laugh and the last line nearly made me tear up.
this means so much to me im literally sobbing. this hits so close to home. i had to put my kitten down earlier this year due to an injury we couldn’t afford the surgery to fix, and it wrecked me. this hit so close to my heart and i miss him so much, but this made me so happy and sad all at once. thank you for creating this!
I'm on my way to the hospital to get surgery and this song really helps calm me down. The work that went into this animation is astounding and I really love the story line!
Your animatic was incredible, I ended up crying because it was just that moving. Excellent work!
Ive never cried over something so much than this
