Hi Toni, I have been writing messages to Romeo. I have a memorial page and I post my feelings and talk to him. Right now that’s very comforting for me.
I am definitely crawling along like everyone here.
Thank you, Toni…. hugs to you too. -

Pam, I ammso sorry for your loss of Andy 💔 I know how heartbreaking losing our fur babies is and I wish there was something I could say to ease your pain. It’s been almost 8 months since I lost my boy and I am still grieving hard. Youre right, this is the hardest thing to go through.
Sending you comforting hugs and wishing you peace 💔 -

Losing Murphy destroyed me! It will be 4 years in November 2023. He was a rescue and 3 months after I lost him he sent my chi boy Valentino to me via the rescue society I got him from. Valentino helped heal a badly busted heart and Murphy is in my thoughts at least once every day.
Thank you for being understanding how much our beloved furkids mean to us. -

I lost my sweet Andy 4 weeks ago Thursday. I had to make the decision to let him go. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. This pain is so hard.

Pam, I am so sorry. I have said goodbye to three sweet babies in this past 1 1/2 years – two were mine and one was a friend’s whom I accompanied to the doctor. In each case, knowing it was in their best interest, I felt good letting them go comfortably. The minute I walked in my house, now that’s a different story. No one came to greet me, their things were harsh reminders that they were never going to use them again, and the house feels so empty and quiet. That is the hard part for me. The only thing I second guess is did we wait too long to say goodbye? That’s so difficult to know but I do know it was done out of love. Four weeks is not a long time, there is no timeline for grieving, but I hope you find some comfort sharing with us, and knowing you did what was best for Andy 💔.
Our group meetings are the third Thursday each month – Sept. 21st coming up – and the login links to all meetings can be found under the “Events” tab on the right of this page. Please join us. {{Toni}}

Oh, it DOES help to know our pain is understood and that others care. Your kind words mean very much. There is absolutely no proscribed time for healing from grief. As we’ve discussed, we crawl through it together. Have you tried writing a letter to Romeo, telling him your memories and feelings? You can also write what you think Romeo would want you to know in a letter from him to you. You might find some comfort doing either, or both, of those. Let us know if you do. We’re here for you, Maureen, always with open arms. {{Toni}} -

Oh Becki, saying goodbye is so very hard, but at such a young age it can be even more difficult to accept and understand. I am just so sorry. None of us know how long we have but we expect to enjoy a longer time together. Is cancer common in his breed? When you are ready, and if you’d like, may we see some pictures of Bob and hear more about your lives together? Becki, this is one of the most difficult and painful times for you and we are here for you with sympathy, actual empathy, and understanding to support you and help you. Please stay in touch here, and join our group support September 21st if you can. 💔Toni

Becki, I am so sorry for your loss of Bob. No matter how long you have them. They make an impact in your life. I hurt for you. My prayers are with you. -
Cindy posted a new activity comment 3 years, 1 month ago
Thanks so much for your kind words. It is a daily struggle, our babies were a part of just about everything we did in our day to day life. That is why it is so hard to forget them, I am just living day to day to accept him being gone. I am grateful for all the understanding a support from this community. -

Hi Toni, thank you for reaching out to me. I am still having a rough time for the most part, but there are times where I am better. I guess there really is no choice but to go on. I don’t think I will ever get over losing Romeo. The days just drone on and now it is almost 8 months since he left. It is so hard to believe he has been gone that long and that in itself makes me so, so sad. It is finally hitting me little by little that he is never coming home and I will never see him again. That is still so hard to face right now. I know time is supposed to soften and help with grief so there’s that.
I have compassion for others who are going through a loss and I think it does bring me some comfort to say something kind to them. Losing a fur baby can be worse than losing a human in some cases and I have to say that is the case for me. I am lost and broken right now and I feel for others who are experiencing the same and I want to help ease their sorrow in some small way if I can.
Thank you, again, for you kindness and for all you do for everyone here.

Maureen, you will see Romeo again. Hugs to you.

Hi Brony, I hope you’re right about that. That would be something I could look forward to. Hugs back to you too.

Maureen, our group meets tonight at 7 Eastern if you can join us. I was thinking that you could wear a mask to visit your shelter and that might help with your allergies. What do you think? Toni

@gregorylauren1gmail-com Hi Lauren, welcome to our caring community. I am so sorry for your loss of Katie and understand it’s been a couple of years since you said goodbye, and yet the memories are still vivid and can hurt, but also bring wonderful joy with the memories of the good times you shared. May we see pictures of Katie? And tell us about your “chonk”! I had the pleasure of caring for Boots before he went back to his human and can tell you I miss him every day. Are many tuxedos 15 pounds? Thank you, Lauren, for sharing your sympathy and understanding with others in our community. That’s what we’re here for. Sending you a {BIG HUG} Toni -

Christina I am so sorry for your loss of June 💔 - Load More
When I lost Murphy, he sent the message to adopt again and I wasn’t sure but Valentino has,as I said, helped immensely with my healing. Yes, the universe somehow knows when to send a healing soul and when to leave well enough alone. Strange isn’t it how things work.
