Wow, what a cutie. It’s not uncommon to “hear” them or “see” them – it happened to me just the other night. It does indicate they occupy a part of your heart and mind that will never go away. Love like this is truly forever. -

Lieren, First, thank you for so generously and eloquently sharing your life with so many loves. You and your family are clearly pet lovers who graciously open your home and hearts. When we meet a new furry, finned or feathered family member, we are filled with excitement for the love we have to give, all the while knowing, albeit in the back of our minds, that one day we will have to say goodbye, that we will face the deep pain that only comes from the loss of a beloved pet. Yet we embrace the chance to share whatever time we are gifted with them. How wonderful of you to continue to give (and get) so much to and from so many. I can’t wait to hear more from you, and please, as you read the posts of others here, share your own sympathy and understanding. It means so much.
Elf: What a great acronym for this fabulous boy. Aren’t they ALL a wee bit “Elf” from time to time 🙂
It sounds as if he was graced with good health until he wasn’t, that he did not linger and suffer, which is a big gift for him. Perhaps the “one time” was just the way it should have been – that Elf didn’t want you to feel him leave but rather remember his energy and warmth. He wasn’t alone and knew you loved him. Would he want you to celebrate your life with him? Yes, of course! We’d love to have them with us forever, but every leaf must fall from the tree, and we are grateful for whatever time we have with our loves. As sad as it is, they are only “on loan” to us, never for long enough. I hope you are as kind, giving and loving to yourself as you are to others. Sending you big {{HUGS}}. Toni

When we last met I spoke of the others lost. Top is Dot 10 yrs when she left us, left to right is Spud 17 yrs, Mak was lost we hope he still lives and just isn\’t returned, Grumpy 11yrs, and of course my girl Raina 10yrs. My daughter putt the collage together.-
Martha, what a menagerie. How wonderful. Is Mak missing? What do you think happened? Did he fly away do you think? How awful not to know. I hope he’s okay and please let us know if you find out anything. Raina and Mae look alike somewhat, don’t they? I’m so happy you and your family have Mae with you now. You are very kind to give care and love to so many. {HUG}

Our Granddaughter and Mae, she\’s showing the book to Mae, and trying to teach her words. While this is cute I remember when she would put plates of her toy food in front of Raina and sit and play with her as well. -

This is Purr-C, a tortoiseshell tabby who left us in June 2008. We rescued him in 2005,and the vet estimated that he was 5 years old. He got his name because he purred so hard he chirped. He was a sweet, funny boy.-
Love that face. ‘Catitude times 100! Isn’t it cool how every animal has their individual voice? I am so sorry you had to part but so happy you gave him a lovely, loving home and life.

This is Pippen The Hobbit, an 8-year old Papillon who left us in April 2016. He hated other small dogs but loved big dogs, and he could find and remove the squeaker in any stuffed toy within a matter of minutes.-
Pippin sounds like some others I know. Romping with the big dogs because clearly that’s where he belonged!

This is Phoebe, a 10-yr old Pug who left us in April 2022. She was so funny and so sweet, but she wanted everyone to think she was a curmudgeon.-
Yep she has that ‘look’. Very good, Phoebe. I call them “M&M’s”: hard shell on the outside because they are so soft on the inside 🙂

This is Picabo, a 16-yr old Pug/Border Terrier mix we rescued in 2006. She was with us for 14 wonderful years before crossing the rainbow bridge, but she\’s still with us. Sometimes we\’ll hear the clicking of her claws across the hardwood floor or feel her nudge our legs when our dogs are asleep.-

This is Elf, a male Lynxpoint who left us in October 2021. His name was originally an acronym that stood for Evil Lil F****r, because he was a holy terror when we first got him. Eventually, that faded away. He was the healthiest cat we\’ve ever had, never even had a hairball, and he was always in my arms. One Saturday, he started meowing funny and could barely move. The next day, he was paralyzed. He was my familiar, and the one time he should\’ve been in my arms, he was on the floor with my brother. I should\’ve been holding him when the last breath left his body. I\’ve never forgiven myself for it, and now I\’d give anything to have him back.-

I am so glad you celebrate your lives with gratitude, Stephanie. We want them with us forever but know that can’t be. So as we grieve and mourn their passing, being grateful is a healing and sincere thing to cherish. Please share with us as you move through and forward. Toni -

Heather, you have enjoyed, and endured, the love of many. That speaks to a great cpapcity for caring and sharing. What happened most recently is tragic and you are understandably numb and suffering great grief. Do you have someone to be with you and help you? We are here for you but having someone there with and for you would be helpful for you I think. Please keep us posted. {{HUG}} -

I smile with tears thinking of all the wonderful memories I have and I’m so thankful I had him for 11 years he was my best friend he got me thru some of the hardest times in my life was always by my side. Miss him so much I know I will see him again one day and I know he’s close in spirit I swear some days I hear him -

I’m completely numb all I do is cry Copper was the sweetest boy, he’s my best friend, I got him just b4 my 14 yr old Doxie past away. He made me feel loved and filled the whole that Say-Dee Lynn left in my heart and soul when she left. He’s my world, Sophie Sophia is Coppers blue eyed daughter that blessed my little family when a rescue Doxie I had gave birth to her in 2019. She was the most loving sweet sweet girl. Her eyes spoke to my soul, I could see forever in her eyes when she looked at me. When I close my eyes I can still see hers.
My little angel Sassy lit up any room she entered. She was the cutest little dog. I miss her spunky attitude and her sassiness. My heart will forever have a hole that will never ever heal. -

Sadly no I’m going through this alone, so called friends say their there for me but they are no where to be found. I look around my house and I can still see the blood ( even though it’s been cleaned up, I still hear every sound from the attack. I’m so numb -

I\’m so sorry Copper, Sophie Sophia, and Sassy, I never meant for u three to get hurt. Please wait for me at the bridge. I miss u all so much. I love u guys. And I\’m so lost without u. R.I.P. my beloved fur babies My Sweet Baby Boy Copper Dean , My sweet Sophie Sophia ,and My Little Angel Sassy. Please find me in the rainbow. I\’ll be looking for you guys and Say-Dee Lynn too. Tell her I love her and miss her terribly.-

@doxielife2023 Hello Heather, and welcome to our caring community. Copper is a wonderful name – is it for the color? May we see some pictures, and hear about you lives together? Are you doing okay? I hope so. Toni

Oh Stephanie, your loss is so recent and your pain is so raw. The first time you met you were excited and looking forward to your life together, filled with love and joy. Somewhere in the deep background we know one day we will have to part, but we make the choice to enter into this profound relationship anyway. Does that sound right to you? So now that awful time has come and you are missing him at the deepest level. I hope you will recall the day you met and the reasons you were willing to open your home and heart. That you remember the many, many fun and funny and loving times you shared. And that you recognize how he was also the lucky one to have a wonderful life with you. Please stay here with us and let us know how you are doing. It’s hard, takes time, but if you can think of the good parts I hope you find comfort there. {{HUGS}} Toni -
