    @elaina Hi Elaina, and welcome to our caring community. Will you tell us about Holly and your lives together, please? Can you share some pictures of Holly with us? Are you doing okay, or having a hard time?

    Kathy, you and so many others have shared their experiences with dreams, energetic flows, and “touches”, and I know the energy is there. Your dreams are bringing you comfort, I hope? I am so glad to hear from you, and about you and your ongoing connection with Dale. Keep letting us know how you are doing, what you are doing, and if you ever feel like sharing your uplifting support with others in our community who are hurting, your thoughts will be much appreciated.

      Krysti, How wonderful of you to bring Brutis into a kind, loving home away from a fighting ring. That is an important and meaningful thing – to share a different, sweet side of life with him. I’m a bit teary as I write, thinking of his life before you, and the life you shared. I’m sad he had to go, but am glad he got to pass in your loving arms. Please, let us know how you are coming along, and if you like, share photos and stories about your other two dogs. I am sending you HUGS

        She is beautiful. Lisa, we just today launched our “Memorials” tab where you can post multiple pictures, and share stories with us. Click the Memorials tab at the top of this page to create a lasting tribute. We will soon be introducing an artist with a unique talent to render your photos and I think you may like her work for this photo of Shetani. We’re a few weeks away from that and it will be announced in our regular Saturday digest, and an email. Thank you for being a caring member of our community. Hugs

              Jennifer, yes, and it’s a different kind of pain, isn’t it? It wells up from deep within. One day, those memories will carry smiles before tears, but there is no time line for when that happens. When did you and Chewielou part? How long were you together? Can you share some pictures with us? May I give you a HUG….

                @ladyunicorn64 Hi Edna. I am very sorry for your loss of Jelly. I love that name – it makes me smile. What type of pet was Jelly? May we see some pictures and hear about Jelly? Are you doing okay, Edna?

                Phyllis, I am glad you found us, and welcome. Noel is my last name, so I feel a special sadness for your loss. What type of pets were Noel and Benji (I guess the pictures will answer that ๐Ÿ™‚ ). We are just going to launch our Memorials area where you can post lasting tributes to either or both. You should see notice of that in our Saturday email. I hope you are doing alright? We love to hear stories about your life with Noel and Benji, and please, let us know how we can support you. Toni

                          @tonimbarribeau Toni, I am so sorry for your loss of Princess. What kind of pet was she? Will you tell us about your lives together, please? If you can share some pictures, we love seeing those because we all treasure them.

                          @bethebben Hello Beth, and welcome to our caring community. Please tell us about your pets, and share stories about your lives together. How can we help you and support you?

                          Dianna, oh my goodness, what a cutie. I am just so sorry, and we do understand the deep sadness. There is an emptiness and pain with their leaving us. There is also, at some point, a deep joy from the loving time we shared, but that takes awhile to surface. It will come with time, but right now, cry and grieve and know how much you loved each other. Our pets are only on loan to us, which is too bad, but it is so good we got to have them in our lives. I would not trade the time together, in spite of the pain of parting – would you? Please, Dianna, let us know how you are coming along – we care and share,,,,

                            Lisa, a month is not a long time. I suspect you still have some of her things and seeing them bring memories, and tears, and hopefully, smiles? Will you tell us about Shetani, your lives together and maybe share some pictures?
