Why are we born just to die?

Does life have meaning if it inevitably ends? One of my cats died 6 months ago. He was only 4 years old. The Vet thinks it may have been some form of Congenital Heart Disease. I keep blaming myself for his death. Maybe If I hadn't been playing P99 so much at the time, I would have noticed that he was getting skinner. Maybe I would have noticed that he wasn't moving around as much. Maybe I would have noticed he was eating less. I guess I will never know, but perhaps if I had they might have put him on some kind of heart medicine that would have prevented his death. It's hard thinking about this, because I know that now I can do nothing to help him. It was really difficult losing him. A lot like losing a son. I wonder if I will ever be fully better again.
