I guess I won’t be getting a baby soon. There’s no dog’s 25lbs or less (that’s the limit in my apt. building) & they have NO cat’s at all -

Courtney, there really is no expiration on grief – it does ease after time and smiles come before tears with their memories. My Beauty Girl was only gone a few weeks when a friend needed me to take his mom’s cat, which was a total surprise to me 🙂 and he is sure helping me through my pain. You hang in there and enjoy your new lover boy, whatever you call him! -

Wow, Dana, I am so relieved that Grunt-Grunt is okay. You had me scared. Thank you for sharing about the Care Credit card, too. That’s a great idea. If you have advance notice of a necessary procedure, you can also submit to https://www.waggle.org/furever/ Waggle helps pay when a pet parent can’t. Keep us posted and give Grunt-Grunt a big hug from me :-). Toni -

Linda, that’s just lovely and loving of you – to open your heart and home to another in need of a good home. It’s puppy and kitten season so more mature animals often get left behind. Let us know who you bring home!! -

Hi Jody. Is this Pebbles? What a doll. I am sorry for your loss. How are you doing, Jody? As you read here in our Community, you’ll see we understand the pain of parting, and that grief takes many courses and travels in it’s own time. We’d love to hear about your times with Pebbles when you are up to sharing. {{HUG}} Toni -

It took me 6 years, before I could get another dog. Even then, I did not looking for the pup. A neighbor died suddenly, and she was a kind person, so I took the dog. I feel bad everytime, I accidentally call my male Chihuahua, Veda. Veda was a pitbull-chow mix female. So, there is really no room for confusion, lol. Losing a furbaby is the worse thing ever, for those of us without family. I really hope you recover soon. I actually still mourn for the magnificent orange cat, that was my first furbaby. 29 years ago… -

Well last weekend my Grunt-Grunt’s eye started getting goobers in it. I thought it was just an infection, and it wouldn’t be too terribly hard to deal with. By Sun evening the goobers had turned yellow/green and had taken over her entire eye. The one that was injured when I rescued her. The earliest I could get her into the vet was Wednesday morning. The vet informed me that due to the extra pressure in that eye it had actually ruptured in the back of it. The vet said that I had 2 options, put her down or do the surgery to remove her eye. Thank God for my Momma and her credit card. The money I had with me would have only covered putting her down, and the vet only allowed payments if it was paid off in 60 days. The surgery was $1200. No way I could pay that off in 2mo. I was panicking, how could this be happening to us? I went to talk to my mom who was in the waiting room, absolutely bawling because I thought I was going to have to put her down. My mom said she would not let this happen to her granddog and put it on her credit card. I have never been so relieved in all my life. She’s an angel. I brought Grunt-Grunt home Thursday afternoon, and she is healing nicely. I’m telling you that from Saturday through Wednesday morning I didn’t sleep because I was cleaning her eye out every hour, to keep the puss from a hard crust on it. When I think about just how close I came to losing my precious Pug because I didn’t have an extra $1200 laying around I start to shake, and cry uncontrollably. I’m going to apply for the Care Credit card, it’s for medical bills. Wish me luck with getting approved. I won’t use it unless there’s a medical emergency, but this way I won’t ever have to make that decision for that reason again. Losing an animal because of their age or because there’s nothing else the vet can do hurts horribly. But thinking that my Pug was going to die because I’m poor was honestly the absolute worst pain I have ever felt. It was worse than any other animal…[Read more]

Yes, Tiger & I have very good memories together. No I haven’t gotten another baby yet but I’m thinking about going to the Humane Society by the 31st because they’ve lowed the adoption fee.

Isn’t it different, Lori, how the tears just come on, and from deep within? Little things can trigger memories and sometimes, tears. I hope you also find smiles when thinking of Snowball. Thank you for your support and sympathies. It means a lot to know our community really understands. I’m sending you a {{HUG}} -

Oh my …. what happened? When I was young a neighbor shot our dog for no good reason. How can this happen? What a shock for you, Sharon. And Bella – was she older? Please tell us more, and share pictures if you like. I am so sorry for your many losses. Toni -

Oh Elaine, how deep the tears come…my girl died Feb. 24th and I still have tears that just come from within even though I know it was the best for her (she was 18). We wish they could be with us forever, but they are only “on loan” to us. This is going to take time, and we are here for you to share your feelings. I found a stuffed toy I could sleep with and pet was very helpful for me. Cuddle Clones can make one that looks just like Toby, but if you have one around, please give it a try and let me know if it helps. We’re thinking of you with sympathy and understanding. {{HUGS}}

I lost my beloved Toby of 12 years on March 16th of this year. He was a rescue dog and my very best friend. My heart just aches and I am so overwhelmed with grief. I received his ashes on the 24th. Every time I look at the urn with his collar I cry all over again.-

Please update us with how sturdy it is! I have the same issue with Xena’s toys. She’s a lab mix and is SO strong. Fastest I think Xena has chewed through something is 3 minutes 😄 - Load More
