goodnight miss sophie girl 🌗

On Friday afternoon, February 28 2025, around 3:30pm, Sophie traveled back to the moon and the stars where she belongs. She fell asleep with her head in my hand, comfy and cozy on her favorite ottoman, lying on the first crochet blanket I ever made, just for her, with me and Ares giving her little pets and telling her how much we loved her the whole while. There was crystal clear birdsong outside the window at the moment she passed, like the sky was welcoming her home.

The apartment feels so empty without her, and I can't seem to stop suddenly bursting into tears, but it brings me such joy and peace to know that she's not in pain anymore, and can finally see all the birds out the window, and she doesn't have to struggle to breathe. I get to love her for the rest of my life, and I'm so so so happy I found her back in November of 2018 and that we got to spend 6 wonderful years together.

My therapist told me last week that "there are no rules in grief", so I'm just trying to focus on getting through each day now, letting whatever feelings happen wash over me, and trying to take care of myself in little ways that I know would make Sophie proud.

I'm also really happy I got to share her with all of you -- she is such a widely loved cat. Her moon eyes have such a far reach <3 I'll get back to posting on here normally again next week. Thanks for your understanding and patience and kindness. I'm working up the capacity to post about this on Instagram in my own time, so I ask that you not share this publicly please. We'll talk soon xx

oh sweet chey - i just opened up patreon for the first time in a while, and immediately went to put on a couple podcast episodes. i saw this post off to the side, and wanted to send some love <3 i know it's a little late, and the pain has probably faded to a duller ache, but i know it won't always go away. i know she was your feline soulmate, and that she knew nothing but love from you and your family. i am so glad she was able to return to the stars in your arms, in her house, listening to the birds. i know her love is always with you <3 you are an incredible mama to your wonderful babies. sending love to your and your cozy little family <3

Milo

always sending you love chey <3

I’m so sorry chey 🥺 We lost our Pepper just before Christmas and also had her for 6 years. Her health took a turn so quickly and suddenly she was in kidney failure 🥲 I’m glad I have so many sweet photos and videos to remember her bc she was the sweetest, most beautiful girl ❤️ I’ve loved watching soph in your videos through the years and she will live on in them

Erika Doy

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this news. Sophie has brought joy around the world! What a special kitty. She was so lucky to have found you. You made her life incredible, and she got to spend the rest of it loving you. Grief is a journey. Take good care, my friend. ❤️

Teya B

OH no! I'm so sorry :( we lost one of our kitties last month and it's been so so hard! Please take care of yourself <3

So sorry to hear this Cheyenne 💔 she was such a lovely and sweet girl, so happy we got to know her alongside you in your vlogs

Katy Van Schyndel

cheyenne, i hope things are easier for you in the coming months. pet loss is harrowing. you and sophie were such a sweet pair to watch in your vlogs. i know you love eachother and you will see her around you in new ways. our old girl Roxy passed on last august. its very weird coming back to 'life' after your loved one passes... take your time. all the time you need. its new and weird and its never fair... i think i even hold onto the grief for a bit because i know its my love. i just cant let it consume me. ughhhh its hard! i really felt your sentiment about loving her for the rest of your life. soon after our roxy passed i had a dream with her in it, she was napping in a weird spot in the house but she looked a bit younger and with more weight on her. her fupa was extra fluffy lol. it was really nice to see her again :') even for a moment. i hope you can have some comfort in the near future, from friends, family, and a hot drink. <3

Sarah Minevich

So many hugs! I'm so sorry!

Samantha Holloway

im so sorry cheyenne, she was a sweet girl and even just seeing her in your videos made me smile. sending lots of love 💜

kindaokbean

Our pets are loved for so much longer than they are present in our lives and I find that so beautiful 💗

Felicia Soderberg

Pet loss is so painful, wishing you so much love and ease as you navigate this grief!!

Felicia Soderberg

All the love. Loosing a pet truly sucks. I'm glad she was able to have such a great life with you.

Lauren D

Oh sweetheart, what a lucky girl you were to have Sophie's light in your life, and how lucky for her that she was blessed with her person. It's such an unbearably hard thing to lose our babies. I feel for you so much. Take all the time you need. I understand the crying, and that's totally OK and normal. Love and hugs from Australia x Nell

i am jack

Devinee Peebles

I’m so sorry Cheyenne. What a wonderful life she had! She was so loved and cared for.

Gabrielle P.

Hi Cheyenne, I'm so sorry to hear about Sophie. I lost my cat in October, and it was so hard, and still is. Thank you for your write-up, it helped me have another moment with the memory of my girl. Pet grief can feel so isolating, and it hurts immensely, but there's relief in the reminder that we aren't alone. I'm sending you peace and the hope you are surrounded by those that love you and support your grief! <3 <3 <3

Megan Tegeder

I’m so incredibly sorry Cheyenne. Sophie will forever be remembered, and forever be cherished. Grief is nonlinear, and we all will be here whenever you are ready. Sending you comfort and strength 💕

Sara Comstock

I'm so sorry Cheyenne. It is so hard to lose such a precious soul like Sophie. I had a black cat for 10 years who passed in 2021 and Sophie always reminded me of her. I'm glad you're finding comfort in knowing that she is at peace and not in pain anymore. Navigating grief is never easy or the same for any one being in your life that has passed. She was with her favorite person until the very end who loved her to the moon and back. She knew how loved she was by you. 💕

Erika Anderson

Sophie has given us so much. It brings tears to my eyes to see just how much love surrounded her throughout her 6 years with you, right up until her final moments. Fly high beautiful girl <3

Tenna Casangcapan

So sorry for your loss Cheyenne, she will definitely be missed ❤️

Marie Brossay

I'm so sorry!!! She's always been such a big presence in all your blogs! With her pretty little eyes and all black fur. May she rest in peace and may you find peace as well. But yes, grieve for as long as you want, for the rest of your life if you want. It just means you loved her SO much. My dear bun died in 2019 but I still think about her and cry for her. Take care 🥺🖤

Melina Pena

I lost my kitty back in September. It’s so hard. Something you’ll never fully heal from. It’s tough. You think you see them out of the corner of your eye and then when you remember they are gone all the pain floods back. But then you also get to remember the joyful memories. Sending so much love. Let yourself move for through the emotions and know you loved her the best you could. You gave her such a full life. 🫶

sadie m

i have been following you and your work in silence for quite some time now. i still remember when you first got sophie. i always found her to be the most unique and enchanting cat i had ever seen and she was very lucky to have you by her side. we were also lucky to be able to enjoy her presence from all the things you shared with us. i'm not really good at articulating feelings but i guess what i want to say is that i'm glad she is no longer in pain. but i am also sad because you are hurting and i'm sorry. there are no rules in grief. take however much time you need to process and heal. we'll still be here and we love you. big hug.

A friend and I were talking about the hallway videos from Jennifer Hudson’s talk show, and she said, “I hope death is like that. Everyone who loves you cheering you on as you walk to the next place.” If it is, Sophie has so so many people in her hallway. I’m beyond sorry for your loss. We’re grieving with you, but that doesn’t make it easier to carry. 🫂
