What a little doll, Becky. How long were you and Gizzybutt together? How did you meet? How did you find that cute name? We’d love to hear more about your lives together, and I hope you find smiles before tears with your memories. {{HUGS}} Toni -

Isn’t is awful, Leslie, how empty and quiet the house is? It’s not unusual to “hear” or “see” your beloved Tanner. How did that make you feel – scared, or happy? Something else? Even knowing she was failing and that you helped her find comfort and peace, they are never with us as long as we’d like. I hope you find memories of the many happy times you shared bring you joy and comfort of your own. Please join our group meeting Thursday Feb. 16th to tell us about Tanner. An email with details will be sent next week. And please know I am very sorry for your loss. Toni -

The quiet and emptiness were very hard for me, too. I suspect we all feel that way, especially if we live alone. Can you make some noise in the background, like upbeat music or a fun movie? Can you get out of the house for awhile each day? Have you thought of visiting a shelter where you can be around other animals (it might be too soon for that). Do you have friends and family you can call or visit with? You could write your thoughts and feelings in a journal. We have one in our Shop called Griffin’s Heart that is a guided journal and memento book that many have found helpful. https://www.faithfulfriends.com/shop/griffins-heart-pet-loss-book/

When did you say goodbye? How long were you together? I think we ARE changed forever by our beloved pets, and think having loved them, and been loved by them, makes us better people – do you think?
How are you changed by your doggie ? What was her name? I hope you will join our group meeting Feb. 16th so we can hear more about your lives together. We’re here for you, Annia. {HUGS} Toni -

Oh Jenn, Princess looks like a princess – what a darling girl. It hurts so much to say goodbye at any age and I hope you find some comfort knowing she is at peace now. Letting her go was a very loving gift and with time I hope you find smiles before tears with your memories of the many fun and loving times you shared. Please join our group meeting Thursday Feb. 16th at 7 EST (4 Pacific) to talk about Princess. An email with the details and link will be coming to your mailbox next week. And please Jenn, let us know how you are doing. {{HUGS}} -

She was the sweetest dog in the world! Iām not the same ever since her passing though. -

I love that – Wonderful Walter! Thanks for the great name, Sue. I like helping older animals even though it often means a shorter time together, and potential health challenges. All animals deserve loving homes and great care and I am fortunate to have this opportunity to be with W.Walter. He’s still pretty timid around others but I’ll try to introduce him at our Zoom meeting the 16th. I hope you will join us. {HUGS} -

Oh Lorraine, Spotty was beautiful. My girl had a similar decline, including two seizures. I said goodbye to her the morning she had one in my lap. It’s a loving, kind and generous thing to help them pass peacefully, but there is never enough time together. You did a selfless thing for Spotty and I hope you take some comfort knowing that. It would be nice to have you join our call Thursday Feb. 16th and you can tell us about your life with Spotty, Bear and Twiggy. If that doesn’t work for you, please keep us posted here about how you are doing. We’re thinking of you. {{HUGS}} Toni -

Knock me over with a feather! Walter is going to be 15 in June! We thought he was about ten years old. The vet gave me the chip number and I called the company (more about chips later) and found Walter was born June 2008. That helps me understand him better, and admittedly has changed my approach to interacting with him. I\’ve decided, in deference to his mature age, to keep calling him Walter. It is his name, after all. He is still sweet and slowly getting comfortable in his new home.But what a surprise to find out he is soon to be fifteen. I always encourage the adoption of older animals, especially in the spring when so many babies are in shelters and older animals are often overlooked. Thanks to the many of you who shared greetings about Walter in response to last week\’s email. That is so nice of you all and I hope you will share your thoughts and feelings with us here in our caring Community. I\’ll update about Walter and look forward to hearing from YOU with your updates. {{Toni & Walter}}-
Welcome home, Walter! -

You can always call him as “Wonderful Walter” each time you address him. And Yes, what a surprise for you to learn he is 5 years older than you thought. He is a lucky fella to have found you.

Oh Rose, it is so hard to say goodbye to a long time love and I am so very sorry. It’s a tough thing to know our beloved pets are only “on loan” to us and that one day we will have to part. But Rose, you wouldn’t have traded a day without Bailey, would you? The joys and love you shared? It hurts at a deep cellular level to lose them, and I hope you choose to remember the wonderful gift that was Bailey, and the great life you were able to share. Please, let us know what’s happening with you. And feel welcome to join our Group Meeting February 16th. An email with the details and access code will be sent that week. Toni -
