April, Hi :-). I understand missing your beloved Bandit, and am so sorry. I said goodbye to my Beauty Girl in February and every day I pet and talk to the canvas art piece I had made of my favorite photo of her. We’d love to see some pictures of your Bandit, and hear about your lives together: How you met, what you enjoyed together, how old he was…. anything you’d like to share with us. Please join our monthly group meeting Thursday October 20th at 8 PM Eastern (5 Pacific) and tell us about Bandit. Here is the link:

How wonderful of you to volunteer at the rescue, Lorraine. That is so important. I adopted my Beauty Girl I was fostering for medical care. Same story – we fell in love and there was no way she was going back to the shelter! She died this February and you are right, this holiday season will be much emptier without her. I am sad Vinnie was so young. That’s extra hard. But it’s good you have your others to share love with. I hope they are doing okay – they no doubt miss Vinnie too. Thank you for sharing your story and the pictures. We’d love to meet Bear and the other kits, too. Toni -

Join Colorado Pet Pantry on October 8th when they Raise the Woof! (and raise funds) to help feed hungry Colorado pets! For every $5 raised Colorado Pet Pantry is able to feed a cat or dog for one month- giving families more resources to be able to care for pets with the goal of keeping them out of shelters and with their families. Last year, the Colorado Pet Pantry provided over 6 MILLION meals to hungry pets in need. This year, they aspire to reach that goal again, and they invite you to join them and RAISE THE WOOF!
Help Colorado Pet Pantry achieve this goal by attending their second annual fundraiser event- Raise the Woof! Rooftop Party for a Cause- Presented by LHM Nissan Arapahoe- on October 8th. Held on the beautiful rooftop of X Denver in downtown Denver, the event will feature: Denver band The Dollhouse Thieves; Emcee Mia Voss; drinks by Tito’s Handmade Vodka; wine by La Crema; nonalcoholic refreshments; silent and live auctions; a liquor pull; and heavy hors d’oeuvres by X Denver. Doors will open at 4pm and close at 9pm. Tickets are still available, but limited- click here to purchase.
2021 was Colorado Pet Pantry’s 8th year of exponential growth. They had their first Wooftop Party for a Cause, which was a huge success, and reached several new communities with pet food assistance in many parts of Colorado. Now in 2022, they are working to stabilize this growth. They have been securing their commitments and relationships to the new areas they added, and making sure they can sustainably continue to help all the families and their pets moving well into the future. As part of their goal to continue to operate in all the areas they inhabit today, they need to Raise the Woof! I mean, raise some funds at their annual fundraiser!
Your attendance for an evening of fun and fundraising on October 8th would mean the world to them and the pets that they serve.

Handsome. How old was Vinnie? How long were you together? How did you meet? Holidays and anniversaries can stir some powerful emotions and I hope you remember the great times you and Vinnie shared. -

Marybeth, I am crying for, and with you. I have thought of you, Drake and your family every day. What a lovely and loving gift of joy and sharing you all gave Drake. Here’s what I know- in our heads we know Drake is at peace, out of pain and you shared a wonderful life together. In our hearts, it’s painful, lonely, the house is empty. It takes time, yes, and you will find smiles before your tears. We are here for you with caring and understanding. I hope you will keep us updated on how you are all doing, and that you might join our online group meeting October 20th at 8pm Eastern. The link will be in that week’s email, and posted here.
Also, please create a lasting memorial to Drake. It’s only $10. and I find it helpful to have one for my Beauty Girl (who died in February). https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/
You are in my thoughts. {{HUGS}} Toni -

Attended a Blessing of the Pets with a friend today at St. Mary\’s Anglican Catholic Church. Father Kevin Bell gave a charming service and blessed the pets. It was charming. Perhaps your local churches or pet funeral homes offer a blessing.-
That is adorable!

Oh Wendy, just July. That’s so recently and you must be still very sad and sore. But I hope you aren’t sorry to have loved Layla, to have shared her life and given each other great joy. This is the hard part of loving-the parting. But, we get to keep them with us in our memories and hearts. Wendy, I hope one day soon you will think of Layla and smile, smile, smile before you have tears. She would want that for you, don’t you think? Stay with us here. We understand, and care. Toni -

Truth. ell your grandson the truth. Our pets, just like everything – really, everything, only get to exist in physical form for awhile, but their energy and memories and Love are everlasting. Look at trees this time of year-every leaf must change and fall. Maybe he will understand that. Oh Dianne, it IS empty and quiet. I think that is one of the hardest things – she isn’t there to talk and cuddle and just be there with you. That’s why I found even a stuffed toy so helpful for me – something to fill some empty space, to hold on to and talk to and cry on…..it’s why we’re here with you. We can never. no one can, take the place of Princess, but we share your pain and sadness. We’re here with you to care and know the depth of your pain. And, we know, as do you, how tremendously lucky you and Princess were to have the quality of love and life you shared. Please think of how fortunate you both were, and are, to have shared your lives. It’s sort of all we can hope for, isn’t it? I am, we all are, thinking of you with sympathy ……. HUG HUG HUG Toni -
