Jeri, thank you again. You say it all beautifully. She\’s at peace now. I will write more soon, but am just bereft and heartbroken right now….-
I’m so sorry, Toni. Thinking about you today. You gave her such a great life over these past few years. 🤍 -
I am so to hear! I’m sure she felt the love you provided her every day. You are in my thoughts today. -
Thank you, Tay. I haven’t cried (yet) today, so hopefully it gets easier.

Toni, I’m just so heartbroken for you at the loss of your girl. You, and the rest of this community, were so caring and supportive when I lost my buddy, Rascal in 2020. The pain at first is just searing, and I wondered if I would ever catch my breath again. Thank you and this community for walking through the pain with me. I hope you are doing a little better each day and that you will heal as you continue to help all of us. Please know that you are loved.

Oh Gail, you have made me cry with your own kind words and I thank you so much for your generous contribution to help keep our community going. I’m doing it alone and need some support to cover costs. Thank you for helping us help others…and now me, as I move through this truly ‘searing’ pain. Here is another {HUG} for you. Something really cool happened tonight: I was sitting on the ottoman in my den where BG and I often sat, and the remote went to “0”. I hadn’t touched it, and have never hit zero before. She often stepped on it and changed the channel so I figure her energy came for a fanny scratch and belly rub. At least, that’s what I’m going with. I really did not touch it. I always say, and I know, intellectually she was so sick and I doubt she would be with me now, and she had a very peaceful passing, but the depth of pain from the emptiness and loss of her company are so deep. You have really touched me and, yes brought tears, but also comfort. Thank you again, Gail.

Toni I’m so very sorry. I know your heartache. It’s our selfishness to keep them with us because we love them so very much. But we love them so much to give them peace when they are hurting and their sweet little bodies are failing them. I know how empty and sad you will feel. My heart is with you today and the coming days Toni. I’m wrapping my arms around you in a big hug. I’m coming up on 7 months since I lost Chloe and I still have moments of tears. They are a big part of our family. You mentioned 5 years, was your baby a rescue? Could you share a picture and tell me about her? Thinking of you…💔💕 -

Thank you Jeri. I’m taking her today at noon. Yes, the tears come from deep within, but she deserves a peaceful exit. We’ve been treating her multiple health challenges for over a year but she’s failing and I am sure she is not going to improve. She’s losing weight, has more blood in her stool, is vomiting more…the list goes on. I am grateful for our five years together. Heartbroken to my core. And thankful for your support and understanding. -

I’m sorry Toni you’re going through the heart wrenching season with your girl. It’s so hard to watch and accept, I’m so sorry. I guess you’ll know when it’s time and your heart will break and ache. They are such a important part of our family. Just today I ran Across a site that asked the question, “do you have a pet that has captured your heart more than another?” Don’t get me wrong, I’m a die hard animal lover! We are snowbirds, do the RV thing just so our girls can be with us! But I have never had a pup like little Chloe, that Captured my heart so completely. She was always in my arms or on my lap! All 4 lbs of her! Followed me everywhere. I just feel so lost and incomplete without her!! I just don’t know how adjust without her….💔 -

@jennybean171 Hello Jennifer, and welcome to our caring community of pet lovers. I am so sorry for your loss of Rodney. How are you doing? What kind of pet was Rodney? May we hear about your lives together, and see some pictures?

Oh Jeri, we understand. It hasn’t been very long since Chloe passed, especially the way she did, which was so hard for you to see. I really understand because my girl has had two seizure-like events and it is absolutely terrifying. She has also become deaf (and blind). I almost let her go yesterday but she rallied. It’s touch and go, and like it was for you with Chloe, it’s heartbreaking. So Jeri, let yourself grieve, and share your feelings with us. We’re here for you. And, I hope Sophie and Daisy bring you great joy and love. Stay in touch. Toni -

It is so hard, Steve, and I too am so very sad and sorry for your parting from Molly. In our heads we know one thing, but our hearts scream out another. Six months is not very long to grieve. In fact, there is no timeline for that. I think being kind to ourselves, not second-guessing or laying on a guilt trip is helpful. Molly knew you loved her, and of course you miss her deeply. In our shop you can find “Griffin’s Heart” – a journal/book you might find helpful. https://www.faithfulfriends.com/shop/griffins-heart-pet-loss-book/
Most of all, know we are here for, and with you, with sympathy and understanding. {{HUG}} Toni -

I don\’t want to bring everybody down but I almost gave my angel her wings today. Her 18th birthday is March 13. She has been on meds for blood pressure, thyroid, internal inflammatory disease, and you may have seen this photo of catupuncture for her kidneys. She is now blind and deaf. But….she\’s been doing well. However, last night she had her second frightening event in two months where she was either choking or having a seizure. I took her to the doctor today. It seems likely it\’s a neurological condition. She continues to lose weight. It\’s time to give her a final gift of peace and relief, and today I was ready (as one can be) and then she started meowing and seemed engaged and I just couldn\’t take that path. I am trying to do only what\’s best for her – it\’s not about me. We\’re home together for tonight. Heartbreaking…….. -

My heart is still trying to heal with the loss of my baby girl Chloe last Aug. Yes I still have Sophie and Daisy, but there’s still an emptiness in my heart. My little deaf baby girl took a piece of my heart and soul with her! 💔-

I have more than 2 but here are the 2 that are always together. The black and white tuxedo is Gizmo and the white cat is Snow-
For Two’sday 😄

Tay your cats are beautiful.
-
Thank you! These are my babies! The Snow we actually rescued when she was a few days old.
-
Thank you Tay.
The little calico has the eye injury that we have been treating since I got her and vet says it is getting better. I think she is very hard of hearing or deaf. Will have to get vets opinion but she is a very sweet happy girl so guess it does not matter to her.
Your babies are beautiful. We are so lucky to have them. -
Cathy, my old girl went blind (initially due to high blood pressure – you might get hers checked), and became deaf, but she did well with it and got around fine. Their other senses are so good, I think they do better than we would. Let us know what you find out – we’d like to know. Good luck 🙂

Trixie was spayed yesterday. They looked closer at her eye while she was asleep. All I know is they said there is scaring. This is a clinic that is a spay clinic that has been treating her. Now that I officially adopted her I have an appt with my vet on the 27th. Hope to learn more then. She is the sweetest happy little girl inspite of her issues.

Susan, I’ve been stewing on this and wonder: are yams or sweet potatoes good for dogs? I know pumpkin is, and I think yams may be. Do you know? -
