I am so sorry for your loss of Kiara 💔 Saying goodbye to our fur babies is never easy and losing them so young is even harder, I would think. She was too young to go over the Rainbow Bridge. So sad 😞
Sending you comforting hugs 💔 -

Thank you for sharing this, Brony. And isn’t it true? We suffer the loss and agony of parting, but must remember the many joys and endless love we shared. It reminds me of my “ruler” exercise: Think of your time together as a ruler with each year being an inch. Only a fraction at the end was bad – the rest was just pure delight! This is a lovely poem and I invite others to share poems and sentiments that inspire, move or make them smile 🤗🤗💕💕Toni -

Exposing the belly means she trusts you and is comfortable with you. She’s a very pretty girl 🙂 -

What an unusual name – please tell us about it, and about Akyahros and your lives together. What kind of pet was Akyahros? May we see some pictures? We’re here for you with sympathy and understanding. Toni

Yes, I agree. When we force things – anything – it doesn’t seem to work out. “Waiting will fill”. I was trying to connect with a foster about 30 miles from me who has mama cats and kittens to adopt but we just couldn’t seem to connect. That was my sign that it wasn’t right, and is what encouraged me to go back to fostering with our local shelter. And, just as with humans, there are some with whom we have a deep, strong bond. So love your little Valentino and enjoy these times together. Just as no one will ever replace you, no one will replace Henry or Murphy. But our hearts are expansive and can make room for more love. Thank you for sharing with us, Lori. I hope you’ll continue to do so. {{HUGS}} Toni -

Kiara posted a new activity comment 3 years, 2 months ago
Kiara passed away just over a week ago at the age of 2 and a half. She was a wonderful little kitty who overcame medical struggles. Her dead came suddenly on Tuesday morning. It was unexpected. She passed away quickly by the time we got her to the vet. We miss her dearly and it has been hard dealing with her loss. -

When I lost my first buddy, Henry in 1999, it took me 15 years to let Murphy into my heart. I also had another dog, Chiquita, but she and I just never really bonded.
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. -

I believe your never too young to cross the rainbow bridge. The rainbow bridge honors lost pets. You will see her again.

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}} -

I would never recommend someone open their heart and home again until they are ready, but I think the universe has other plans sometimes. Ten days after my BG died and I was still very much in the depths of grief, Boots came into my life and turned me around. His youth, energy (and I mean HIGH energy), sweetness, curiosity, willingness to learn, and desire to play – just the vibrancy of life – made me realize that BG had her time and now it was time for another love. Like you, Lori. I think of my darling, beloved BG every day and somtimes cry, but Boots gave me the kick I needed even though I thought I wasn’t ready. Boots has gone back to his mother and I am ready to begin fostering again. -

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. -

I am so sorry for your loss of Bob 💔 Losing our beloved fur baby is so hard but especially when they are so young.

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.-
Thinking of you, Lori <3
