@shianne Suzanne, Thank you for kind words of sympathy, and THANK YOU for sharing your thoughts that you may have waited too long for dear Spirit. You have done our community a service by sharing that. I had lunch with a friend whose cat had a mass similar to Walter’s that ruptured. My friend told me “Toni, she was in agony. Don’t let that happen to Walter”. I heard and heeded those words every day and it made the decision so much easier, knowing Walter wouldn’t suffer the unneccessary pain his beloved cat did. I may have waited too long last year with my Deanna “Beauty Girl”, too. We learn to let go before they needlessly suffer and I hope you find comfort for yourself knowing Autumn Ranger and Saraya received the best of your love in letting them go. You are a kind, loving pet person and I am truly grateful to have you in our community. My best wishes and thoughts are with you. Toni

My ride or die miss you everyday in every way
Life is not the same
And I\’d give anything to habe you back just one more time
If only for a moment-
Fifteen years, 100 years – it’s never long enough for us to be with our darlings. Leigh, reading how small and sad Sammi was when you met, and how much love and fun she had with you, I hope your many memories of the good life you shared bring you joy. Sammi was so happy for her life with you and I am sure she wants you to be happy, too. Each day can you think of, maybe write down, a fun or funny memory? I find it helps to deliberately recall those. Our group meets tonight at 7 EST if you would like to come share with us. Link is under “Events”. Toni

Thank you all for you soothing words of kindness and understanding, not just for my loss(es), but for each and everyone here in our caring community. It does help to both hear from others and share my own sympathy for your losses. I am choosing to recall the fun, funny and sweet things Walter did and was. He was better longer than he was ‘bad’ (unwell) and I am so grateful he was doted on, adored, cared for and loved as his life wound down. And I am deeply grateful for this community. Thank you 🤗Hope to see you tomorrow in our group meeting. -

Penny, I am so sorry you lost Donnie! I love the tattoo idea. You can touch it with love and think of him – not that you need it ato remind you. Over time it will get easier to think of him but I am glad you are standing up for yourself and not get a new pet to patch over your pain. People may mean well but they don’t know how deep your love is and therefore your grief. You will know when you are ready. Right now you honor Donnie and your life with him. Best wishes to you! -

Toni, I was sad to read about you losing Walter! You loved him and took care of his need to be free of pain first even though it breaks your heart. I know the pain of feeling the house being different and weird without them! Wishing you support and shoulders to cry on at this time! -

They are such big parts of our lives, aren’t they? I am sorry you lost Sammi. A quarter of a century that she was with you! We wish they could live with us as long as people do so we wouldn’t have to say goodbye so soon! Sammi seems to have been a full and equal family member, going with you and your daughters on trips and accompanying you to work. Sadly it will take a long time to get used to the new normal in your house. The void will not just go away and can’t easily be filled – but you’ll get to a place where you can talk about her affectionately, remembering your adventures without crying, just grateful you had her. Just like you mourn for people, and over time you are able to go on. You’ll never replace or forget her but she is in your heart and is part of you. So sorry! I am sending good wishes to you and your family! -

Toni,
I’m so sorry to
Hear of the passing of Walter. In the short time he was with you in his final fur ever home you both touched each other’s lives and once again your heart is hurting and has another hole, hopefully at the right time to be filled by another fur baby in need of a loving fur ever home as Walter was.
As hard as it is to say good bye for the final time you made the right decision to set him free of his pain Hindsight bring for sight, I let my spirit suffer longer than she should have because I was selfish and wasn’t ready to say goodbye. While the decision to set Autumn Ranger and Saraya free wasn’t easy I tried to be less selfish and release them earlier on so they didn’t have to suffer anymore
You and everyone else mourning the loss of a beloved animal or human are in my prayers. -

Leigh, I am so sorry for your loss of Sammi. 😞 What a wonderfully long life she had. I understand what you’re feeling and the grief is unbearable. Life does change suddenly when we lose our fur babies. We miss everything about them and the things they did. The house is quieter now and the silence is deafening.
Sending you hugs 🫂 and I wish you peace. 💔 -

@Toni Noel….
Toni, did you say you had to say goodbye to Walter this yesterday morning? 😢
I am so, so sorry for your loss of Walter. 😞. I haven’t been here for long, but, I seem to remember something you said about Walter being okay and I assumed he was ill. I know your heart is broken and I wish I could say something to ease your pain. Sending you hugs 🫂 and hoping they bring you some comfort. I wish you peace at this very sad time. 💔 -

We got Sammi 25yrs ago ,she was a rescue
So small and filthy
I’m not sure who saved who more
She became my ride or die and went everywhere and I mean everywhere together ❤️
If I didn’t habe her on a journey my girls did
Either for long walks exploring new parks or taking her to work to meet new people and furry friends
Her passing has changed tins in our lifestyle
We miss her barks
She would bark of a leaf blew by
Her cuddles 😍 😭
Her tiny tie beans tapping the floor and if course her waiting for us to come home. -

Lola, No one can answer your question but you – “How to tell him”. Do you think it would be kinder for your brother if you wait until he’s released? Perhaps you can make a photo collection for him so he has that. You can post a lasting memorial for Angel in our Memorials tab. If he asks about Angel, you wouldn’t want to lie, but my inclination is to not bring it up unless he does. Let’s see what others in our Comunity say. I am sorry for the loss of Angel. What a little darling. Toni
