    Such a cute babe! I’m so sorry to hear. I know he was happy to connect with someone who could understand him just as much as he understood you.

      @yellowstone Hello Sharon. I am sorry for your loss of Khazi. What a nice name-does it have a special meaning? Will you tell us about your lives together, share some pictures? How are you doing?

      • His name c was short fir Kamasi. Thats what he was when he was little. He was a mamas boy. Khazi was killed in his own backyard 1yr. Ago by a cop. Shot 5 times. Misa him terribly. Lost his sister Bella 1 month ago suddenly.
        • 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

          Hi Christine. How are you and Buddy doing?
          • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 4 years, 7 months ago

            Atta Boy! He’s doing a fine job being an energetic doggy 🙂

              Yes, brighter days ahead, Randy. I said goodbye to my beloved Beauty Girl Feb. 24th and two weeks ago today, a friend called, their mother had taken ill and was not able to be home with her two year old cat, Boots, and would I take him in! He’s twice the size of my girl, has teeth (she only had one), and is a bundle of energy and joy (when he’s not being a monster). I had not intended to bring a new pet home yet, but I can attest that he has helped me through my grief. I try not to think of BG because, even though I know it was the best for her (she was turning 18 and was quite unwell), the pain of loss runs deep and lingers. So of course you still hurt and miss Ranger and Axel, but Renzo is one lucky boy, and I am delighted for you and your family to have new love and fun. Keep us posted. OH! Share some photos of Renzo and the springtime birds and animals and stuff he gets up to 🙂

                Very happy with his new Kong chew toy/braided rope. I think he\’ll have it destroyed in a week or two!
                • Atta Boy! He’s doing a fine job being an energetic doggy 🙂
                  • 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 😄
                    • Hi Tay. Sorry it took a while to get back to you. Renzo has done a pretty good job of destroying his new toy. He tore the rounded ends off it already & is proceeding to nibble it down one bite at a time. I had high hopes for it, but no such luck. I would not recommend it for a serious, strong chewer.
                      • 😄 Aww man. Well maybe next time.
                        • You called this one, Randy – Renzo is a big, strong boy. He could probably chew through a truck tire :-). Love hearing about him, and your fun together.

                          Hi Toni. We’re both doing OK here. Been a busy winter with a lot of work hours put in but now just waiting for spring. Eager to get outside more with our dog Renzo who absolutely loves running & playing outside! I can tell he’s also getting a lil’ “cabin fever” from a long winter but we’re planning lots of outdoor adventures & car rides too. Everyday i still think of the 2 shepherds we lost last summer. They’re both buried in our yard under a nice apple tree along (2) other dogs who passed years ago. It still hurts so much because of the sudden way it unfolded. Brighter days ahead…

                              Of course you miss her, Dianne. She will always be a part of your heart and her memories probably bring both terrible tears and pain, and really happy thoughts. Four months isn’t long. I remember when it happened. Are you doing better now, though? Beauty Girl is gone 29 days and I am doing better, and hope you are each day. {HUGS} Toni

                                Gloria, BabyBoy was such a cool looking cat, and I know what you mean about ‘being human’ – are we sure we aren’t ‘cat’? Whatever we are, we have deep communication with certain pets and animals, just as we do with some humans. I am so happy you can remember him with smiles even through your tears that come from deep within. I’m so happy my Beauty Girl is out of pain, but the tears and pain of parting are still with me, too. It’s a trade off we wouldn’t change, isn’t it? The many joys and deep shared love in exchange for the searing pain of parting. Gloria, please share more stories about Buddy, and pictures! We love sharing and it helps us all come together in support of one another. Thinking of you {{HUG}}

                                      It sounds as if Buddy did what you asked and it’s not a day to soon, or late. Excessive vomiting may indicate internal problems, and he seems to be declining, and probably is suffering. The process of passing was so comfortable for my girl, and I know she was relieved of her suffering. We are the ones left behind with the terrible pain of loss, but it’s our obligation to grant the gift of peace as an act of love. So Gloria, those are my thoughts. Whatever you decide, you will act from love and in his best interest. Do let us know, and know we truly feel your pain and understand. I’ll be thinking of you constantly. {{HUGS}} Toni

                                            My late sweet tabby BabyBoy. Such a fun, precious little darling. This boy thought he was human. I love and miss him so much. Still hurts every day. He was a rescue and I adopted him. He and I had a language all our own. Lol

                                                I’ve been trying to avoid letting my last fur baby leave me, since I lost my husband last April, Karma in May & Jasper in October; I just can’t be alone. Buddy has also been ill, but not as far along as J was, & medicine seems to be helping.
                                                I told him to let me know when he was ready to cross over, but it couldn’t be by having me hold & cuddle him like Karma did. I told him to bite me, not break skin, but bite me hard enough to get my attention (I know that sounds weird, but after losing so many close loves, I need to make sure I’m doing what he wants) He has been vomiting more (volume) this past week. So last night he attacked my arm/hand. Out of the blue, didn’t touch him or try to pet him or anything else to annoy; we were just settling down to sleep. He is acting a little differently today, but I’m not sure if I should call the vet or wait…any advise would be appreciated. I don’t want to be selfish & make him stay if he’s in pain, but I also don’t want to send him off for an unnecessary feeling.
