Mary, you are clearly an animal lover and have shared love with many. I hope you continue to open your home and heart to others who deserve a loving home and good life with you. Please let us know if and when you bring more pets into your life. I hope you remember he good times with each of them. Toni -

Donna, I’ve read this several times and I hope that in writing your feelings, you find some relief from the pressure in your heart. Grief is real and the pain runs deep. Perhaps you can deliberately think of the good times, write down the funny things she did and look at pictures of her enjoying her life of love with you. The sad thing is, our pets have their own life spans and are only “on loan” to us, never for long enough. But Donna, would you not have wanted those times together? Even knowing you had to part one day, I suspect you wouldn’t trade those. These darn holidays can make things even harder and I hope you will continue to share you feelings and more photos with us, and that you allow good memories to come to you. She would want you to celebrate your lives together, and I hope you can do that. We’re thinking of you. {{HUGS}} -

I have lost my 2 big dogs in 2003. Molly was a border collie with a lab face she weighed in at 100 lbs. and my Boomer. Boomer was a 1/2 Chow 1/2 ? and he was nothing but a big ole teddy bear. He was all black and he got cancer and had to be put down. And Molly got ran over by a UPS truck and died immediately. I had them for 7 years, and I still miss them. Then we had a young 1/2 dachshund 1/2 Chow who got to spend some time with Boomer, ran out of the yard after a squirrel and was ran over by a vehicle, again in 2003. Then we got another Dachshund and had her for 15 years, she had heart disease and to keep her from suffering I had to help her across the bridge. This was in 2020.
I have had 5 wonderful cats throughout the years, Taz, Sam, Jake, Muff, and Mew.I miss each and everyone of them. They all dogs and cats have all been important to me.-

Oh no, Victoria. I am so, so sorry and know how deep the pain runs. Even if, in our heads we know they are only “on loan” to us, and Henri is now comfortable and at peace, our hearts are broken. I hope, with time, your memories will bring you smiles before tears as you remember the wonderful life you shared. Thank you for this charming picture of Henri. What a handsome boy. I will be thinking of you with heartfelt sympathy. Maybe this {{HUG}} helps a little. Toni -

@monica Luna Bell. What a charming name. I am sorry for your parting, Monica. It’s so hard, isn’t it? What kind of pet was Luna Bell? How did you meet? How long were you together? May we see some photos? Are you doing okay? I hope so, and we’d love to hear about your lives together. Toni

It is so hard to have a beloved, dearest friend leave us, Arnel. The holidays can be especially difficult but can also bring sweet memories of past holidays filled with joy. I hope those memories are with you this season. Toni -

Lorraine, what a lovely, loving sentiment. Thank you for sharing this with us, and your thoughts of the good times you shared. This picture makes me a bit teary because my Beauty Girl was black too, and this is my first holiday without her. But, I am so grateful to have had her in my life, it’s hard to feel anything but happy for our time together, which is what I think you are feeling, too. I hope you and yours carry those good memories and are filled with joy this season. Toni -

Oh Darcee, she was so beautiful. I know it is lonesome and there is a hole in your heart, and home without her. This is my first year without my Beauty Girl. (You can see he memorial here: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/beauty-girl/
I am choosing to celebrate the years of love and joy and fun we had, and not focus on the sadness and pain of parting. Perhaps you can try that, too. Let us know how you are doing through the next few weeks, and please know we are here for you. {{HUGS}} Toni -

A happy photo taken last Christmas of Vinnie (on left) and brother Bear, at grandma\’s house 2021. (passed Jan. 6, 2022). I will miss you sweet Vinnie and thinking of you as you spend your first heavenly Christmas without us. You are always in my heart, never forgotten. I know you are well now and looking down at me, sister Spotty, and brothers Bear and Twiggy. RIP my sweet boy.-

Oh Lorraine, what a sweet, nice and touching tribute to Vinnie. He was SO cute. How are Spotty, Bear and Twiggy doing without him? I’m sure they grieve his loss, too. These darn holiday are tough, but I hope you bring up the many wonderful times you shared often and relish the life you shared with joy. I also hope this new year brings you all lots of fun and funny times, always with love. Toni
