    @sdgoga Hello and welcome to our caring community, Susan. Please tell us about your life with George, and share some photos if you like. How are you doing? Okay, I hope? Toni

    • Hello Toni, and thank you for your warm welcome. George was a very special bunny of mine. He crossed the Rainbow Bridge in May, 2022. George’s daddy, Bee Bee, was a special needs bunny, like George. Bee Bee crossed the Bridge in 2021. I really miss them. I’ve lost so many bunnies, cats, and chickens over the years. I find as I age, their losses impact me so much, much more. I currently have 7 senior bunnies, 4 cats , and 8 chickens, of which 2 are roosters. I also lost my husband, mother, and sister all within a year’s time. My animals are all I have left. I don’t know what I’d do without them. George was a white Jersey Wooly bun. He was such a gentle little soul. He developed an inner ear problem or tumor that wasn’t responding to medical treatment. My awesome veterinarian tried every possible treatment, He deteriorated and then couldn’t support himself, even though he still was eating somewhat. It was an excruciating difficult decision; however, in George’s best interest,…

      • Wow, Susan, you are clearly a kind, caring, thoughtful and generous person. To recognize that giving George a peaceful passing is truly a selfless act of love. Godfrey makes me think of a friend’s cat who was fine one moment, then just died. They surmise it was heart failure but it was without any notice or symptoms. I guess sometimes we just don’t know. I am, we are, truly happy to welcome you to our community and look forward to seeing your photos of all your “kids”. And Susan, if you would like to join our monthly group meeting April 20th, we’d love to hear more. You’ll get an email with the log-in info and details. Hang in there, Susan, and share more with us. {BIG HUGS} Toni

          What a sweetie. I am so sorry you had to say goodbye, Kaitlynn, but it looks as if Carly Mae enjoyed a wonderful life of love with you. It’s what we hope for – love, fun, joy, and spoiling of course. They’re only “on loan” to us and never for long enough. Was she older when she passed? How did you meet her? Are you moving through your grief okay? Can you smile with your memories? We’re thinking of you. {{HUGS}} Toni

            Aimee, thank you for these pictures of Bella. Go to the Memorials tab and you’ll see my Beauty Girl – she and Bella look like sisters! BG was 18 when she died last year and it was best for her to go as she was very unwell, but boy did it hurt to lose her. Now I smile with her memories, and cry a bit sometimes too. The most loving, generous gift we can give our beloved pets is a life of love and respite at the end. Inour heads we know this, but our hearts break. Aimee, how long were you and Bella together? Please tell us about your lives together. And let us know how you are doing. {{HUGS}} Toni

              Oh, what a darling picture of Bugsy, Samantha. I am so very sorry. Was he unwell long? I bet you had many years of fun and love and I hope you take comfort from that. Please share as many photos as you like, let us know how you are coming along, and join our group meeting April 20th to talk about your life with Bugsy. {HUGS} Toni

                How lovely, and loving, Heather. Does having her home help you feel a bit better? I hope so.

                  I am glad to hear you are holding up, as long as you aren’t withholdng your feelings, Eugene. The conflict between knowing Beth was failing and helping her find peace, and now living without her beside you, is painful and you are in the right place to express any of your feelings. We sure undertsand. Share with us anytime, and when Beth comes home, we’d like to know how you do. Hopefully that will make you feel better, having her with you. We’re thinking of you. {HUG}

                    Vicki, I am so very, very sorry and it is understandable that you can’t breathe. The air isn’t the same. Nothing is. Tell us about your Bella, and your lives together. How and when did you meet? What kind of pet was Bella? Anything you’d like to share, we’d like to hear. Do you have another pet you can love on and hold? A stuffed toy? A blanket? I found that helpful in the first days and hope you have something to hold on to right now. We’re here for you so talk to us, Vicki. 💔

                      @whitepaws Hi Gina. Welcome to our caring community. Please tell us about Maxwell – what kind of pet was he? How did you meet? How long were you together? Anything you want to share. Photos, too if you like. And Gina, how are you doing? Okay? Rough? We’re here for you. Toni

                      Oh Kyle, a week is not long and you must be very sad, the house feels quiet and empty, and we understand how hard this is. But, she was 15 years old and that is a wonderful lifetime for Presley. Too short a time for what we want, but how lovely for you both to have had the time together. I found a stuffed animal to cuddle and talk to helped me. What are you doing to find smiles before your tears?
                      • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 3 years, 5 months ago

                        Heather, what a doll he was. All the pictures of him sleeping or resting and it makes me think he must have been a pretty active doggie. Was he? I believe animals are brought to us when we need them, and it’s not always when we think we want another pet. Happens to me all the time. So I am very happy you and your husband think of your time with Brutis as a lovely, loving gift that will fill you with joy always. No, they are never with us as long as we want, but you are with them always. Please stay active in our community, sharing with us how you are doing, and lend your own sympathy to others who are missing beloved pets. It means so much to have our caring community support one another. Thank you for sharing Brutis with us. {HUGS} Toni
