    This was my Gilly boy got him at 3mons Ana neighbor ran over him. He was only 2and 1/2 years old. Still not over it🐾🐶❤️‍🩹
    • Oh no, Linda. Oh no. I am so, so very sorry. Sudden and tragic death is shocking and extreme. I had a 9 month kitten hit and killed and understand. We’re here for you with sympathy. Toni
      • So sorry for your loss.
        • Linda, he looks so sweet – and a bit mischievous. How very sad to loose him so suddenly and under those circumstances! My heart goes out to you. I hope you have shoulders to cry on; there are people here in this community who understand your grief and will listen to what you feel like telling us about him. It does not bring him back but it keeps him alive. In Isabel Allende’s book Eva Luna the mother says to her daughter “People die only when we forget them. If you can remember me, I will be with you always.” I think the same goes for our dogs and cats and other beloved creatures. The task of grieving is to get to where you’re feeling them inside you and are able to take comfort in it, even if they are no longer around physically.
          Best wishes to you!
          • Linda, I am so sorry 😞 He was so cute and what happened to him was so tragic. I wish there were words I could say to help ease your pain. All of us here understand what you are going through. Sending you hugs 🫂 to comfort you at this very, very sad time. 💔

            Good news about darling little Walter. Two weeks ago I had an appointment to let him go but he started acting better and I canceled. He’s eating, playing and his stool is normal. So far, so good :-). He does have an internal mass but now I’m wondering if it’s benign and not growing as fast as it was. We’re day-to-day but right now he’s good. I like to share happy news, too. Toni🤗

            • That’s such good news, praying for your Walter
              • You are so kind and thoughtful, Martha. I really appreciate that. I am delighted, and quite surprised that Walter is doing okay. It’s really tough knowing he has the mass, and I watch him like a hawk for signs he is in distress, but he’s playing a little with me, sleeping A LOT, eating and doing okay. What a surprise and gift. It means so much to have the care and support from our community. Huge {{HUGS}} to you. How are you doing now? Toni

                      Oh Pam, it IS a heartbreak like no other, isn’t it? It was a love like no other, too. What a wonderful time you and Thumper shared, and how many sweet memories you made together. While we know in our heads one day we will have to say goodbye, in our hearts we are never ready. The shame is our pets are only on loan to us, never for long enough. I hope you know Thumper lived his best life because of you, and I hope that you can find smiles before tears with your memories. {{HUGS}} Toni

                          How handsome Nanuq was, Star. And how lucky he was to be loved so well by you. And you by him. The incredible pain and sadness come from the immense love and joy you shared. As Maureen says so well, Nanuq would wish you happiness in your memories of the wonderful times you shared. But it hurts like few other things can, and I, we, are here for you to talk with us. Please come to our group meeting May 18th. I think you will find some comfort. I am sending you a {{HUGE HUG}}. Toni

You are SO welcome in our caring community. We all love our pets and grieve their passing. We know the pain, and the many joys. We understand and are here to support you as you travel this road. I hope to hear more about you and Mikey. And I hope you are doing okay. Are you? Toni

We don’t get to choose how long our pets are with us, we only get to love on, and with, them for the time we are granted, which is never long enough, and we will love them forever. I am truly so sorry for your loss. Please join us May 18th for our group support meeting to share more. We’re here in our community for you, Chris. {{HUG}} Toni

                                Thank you Maureen, it is definitely the worst heartache 💔 I’m sorry for the loss of your boy ❤️

                                  So sorry for your loss. I understand completely how you feel. My boy passed a few months ago and like you, my boy saved me. I didnt rescue him, he came to me at a time when I didn’t want to live anymore. My son gifted him to me so I would have a reason to live. Romeo was my reason and now he’s gone. This grief is the worst and I am right back where I was before he came into my life. I wish you peace send you hugs 🫂 to comfort you during this sad time. 💔

                                    Chris, so sorry for your loss. It’s so hard to say goodbye to our fur babies especially when it happens so suddenly. Your boy is so cute and I know you loved him and did everything you could to help him. Sending you Hugs 🫂

                                      Aww…so sorry for your losses. Losing one is hard enough, but, two? I can’t imagine your heartache and I wish you peace. Sending you comforting hugs 🫂 to help with your grief.💔

                                        Pam, so sorry for the loss of your beautiful baby. He reminds me if my own boy who I lost going on 4 months ago. It is the worst heartache 💔
                                        • Maureen posted a new activity comment 3 years, 6 months ago

                                          So, so sorry for your loss. They say our fur babies know how much we love them and they wouldn’t want us to be in this unbearable pain. I know your pain all too well. It’ll be 4 months ago that my boy left and I am still crying 💔
                                          Sending you hugs 🫂 for comfort

                                            I lost my joy and happiness when my 11 year old and 9 month old sweet baby boy passed away on 4/03/2023. The pain is unbearable and I will miss every single day. I love you Nanuq 4Ever.
