How nice of you Jean, to share your sympathies and understanding with us. And how wonderful of you to share your home and hearts with so many. We’d love to see some pictures and hear about them. Toni -

How are you holding up today, Glenda? I find my thoughts and memories are bringing me smiles, but sometimes the tears just flow. Like Bubbles, my girl was just shy of 18 when we said goodbye in February, and she was quite unwell. So, we know we gave them the best lives we could and now we mourn their passing, and celebrate our lives together. Give little Kissinger extra love – it’s goof for you both. And here is a {{HUG}} for you both. Toni -

By the way, I meant the comment about Kissinger for Glenda, who is part of our conversation 🙂 -

Suzanne, I said goodbye to my Beauty Girl February 24th and still feel deep grief and sob from time to time. She was sick and 18 years old, and it is so good to know she is at peace, but it takes as long as it takes to fully heal. We’ll always remember them, and love them, but it takes time for the empty feelings to be replaced by only joy. Let yourself express your feelings – I always think grief shared is grief halved, joy shared is joy doubled. Kissinger is mourning too, and you are both lucky to be there for each other. What a cutie he is! Would you like to join us June 7th at 7 EST on Zoom? If so, I’ll send you an invitation to log on. Let me know. Toni -

Hi Christine, and welcome to our caring community. I am very sorry for your parting from Luis. We know how deep the pain is and are here to share our support and understanding. We are long-time supporters of Canine Companions for Independence (CCI.org) and you can listen to our “Paw’d Cast” with them by clicking the purple microphone icon at the top right of this page under “Follow Us”. We are also adding other service animal organizations and if you would like to share yours with us, we will be happy to contact them to see if we can add them to our “Giving Back” section.
Will you be meeting another service dog? It won’t replace Luis but it will bring new love and joy into your home and heart. Please let us know how you are doing and what’s happening with you. If you would like to join a small gathering of our kind community members, we are meeting via Zoom Tuesday June 7th at 7 pm EST (4 Pacific). Let me know and I’ll send you an invitation.
Christine, if you would like to share some photos of Luis with us, we’d love to see them. You can also post a permanent memorial to him here: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/
I hope you do better each day, and find smiles before your tears. Toni

Glenda, 1. Our tech guy fixed the thing that was giving you trouble – it wasn’t you or what you said, it was something in our system. Sorry about that 🙁
2. Shelters everywhere are overly full now and it’s just a desperate situation, so if you can keep the kittens and mother for awhile, you are an angel. To find more shelters, go the link below and enter your area, use the drop-down menu and click Animal Rescues & Shelters, or other pertinent areas. Maybe you can find a place to help. And some pet stores will let you present the kittens for adoption. Here’s the link:It’s been a while since I have been here, but I always read the newsletter you send. Yesterday my beloved Bubbles passed away. After 17 years of being together, I am lost. She never acted sick or like she was in pain. She was always running from one end of the house to another, jumping up the air and turning around. I always said she acted more like a kitten than a17 year cat. She loved to eat…pickles, onions, tomatoes plus her regular cat food. My cats have never tried to steal food from me but if something fell in the floor Bubbles would have it eaten before it hit. It will take a while before I get used to her not being here. She was always waiting for me when I opened the door and would look at me lovingly when I kissed her bye on the way out. I am deeply heartbroken.[Read more]– Glenda (@ghorton01) May 3, 2022
3. I understand how you feel about Bubbles, having said goodbye to my beloved on Feb. 24th. But, thank goodness you have the others, and they you -what a difference it makes to have them in your world. I was taking care of Boots, a 1 1/2 year old (scroll through the posts and you can see some of his fun photos), and he went back to his lady this week. I cried for five nights and my home is empty. But, I am hoping he is happy and healthy, and am grateful for the healing he brought me. So Glenda, let yourself feel your grief for Bubbles, and treasure the time you have with your other faithful friends. And thank you for your update. Our community is here for us to share our happy, and sad times, and it means everything to hear from you. By the way, would you be interested in a video group visit once a month or so, to share stories and support? Let us know. I’m thinking of you all, with warm wishes. Toni -

Suzanne, I am glad you know you can safely share your feelings with us. The format is “virtual”, or electronically shared, but we are real people who love our pets and animals, and we do understand the joys and the pains. Please keep us updated. Toni -

Suzanne, how are you doing now? I was, and am still, so very touched by your beautiful Spirit. She and my beloved Beauty Girl looked so much alike (you can read her memorial here: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/beauty-girl/ ). I have a canvas picture of her I pet and kiss every day, and while I am glad for her to be at peace, as you are for Spirit, I know how much you miss her. Please, keep us posted about how you, and your other faithful friends are doing. {{HUGS}} Toni -
