After 15 and a half years, Andrew Bernhard had to say goodbye to his beloved cat.
Their bond was so strong that on the way to the vet the cat, also called Andrew, held hands with his owners.
Bernhard shared the photo on Reddit, with the caption:
He held our hands on his last trip to the vet. Little Andrew was much stronger than his mom and I.
Naturally, the post got a lot of attention, with many expressing their condolences.
Bernhard got Andrew when he was in high school and kept him through school, college, medical school and marriage.
He told BuzzFeed that Andrew (the cat) might have known on some level that it was time to say goodbye. He said:
He’d always want to lay on you and be real close. He had a perfect ability to sit on my or my wife’s lap, while we were working on the computer, and he would always hit one random button to turn them off.
