    I wish I had told you about Memory Vessels, Chuck . They have two compartments for physical mementos like remains or fur, plus a USB Flash Drive to store photos of Dexter, all in one beautiful heart shaped, substantial piece. We also have beautiful hand blown glass pieces that have the remains integrated in the glass. Take a look through our Shop, or call me. Also, I want to ask you if fire departments provide window and door stickers that alert emergency responders to pets inside a building. I have one I got years ago and don’t know where I got it. How are you doing now? Toni

      @madwyn3 Jo-Anne, I am sorry for your losses of Guiness and Stanley. Will you tell us about them – what kind of pets were they, how you came to know them and other stories about them, share some photos, and let us know how you are holding up. Toni

      Oh now, Bonnie…there can not be many cats that look like that – she is just stunning! The eyes, the color, the ‘catitude. I think she is very special. Thank you so much for these pictures. I want to join her fan club ๐Ÿ™‚
        • She is special. I adopted her from a animal control center when she was 1 years old.
            • Bonnie, you made me laugh – a can of wet cat food for her birthday – that’s too cute. I take it she usually eats dry? I had a cat that literally walked in my door and adopted me, and she would only eat dry food. The vet said that was fine, and that cat (Chivo) lived a great, healthy life on the dry food. But you made me laugh. Thank you for that!

            Oh my, Nicole – what a pair of beauties. Looks like they are smiling for the camera ๐Ÿ™‚

              Oh, she looks very special, and she is! Do you have more pictures of her we can see? What did she get for her birthday?
              • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 5 years, 7 months ago

                Thank you Kate. Squirt was with me half my life and we went through everything together. She’s been gone a long time and I will always get happy, warm, loving feelings thinking of her. Jane was younger than Squirt and went through so much. You are a dear person to have given her such care. I am delighted you are part of our community and we would love to see Jane’s brothers – the guinea pigs and bunny brother. With pictures if possible ๐Ÿ™‚
                  • I am going to try to post some pictures of Jane and her siblings . Iโ€™m not seeing as how I can add pictures t my reply , so I might post them separately

                        Oh my, wow, eight puppies …how adorable. Are they a certain breed? What happened to Loki? Was he the same breed? Do you have pictures of Loki, Cherry? You are so kind to share your sympathy with others here. It means so much to know other pet lovers understand the joys and sorrows. It’s just so hard to say good-bye…Please, tell us more and share puppy stories with us.

                                  Bambi, I can see why she was your everything – her eyes are just green pools of love. I am so, so very sorry for your loss. It hurts to think of her being gone. It hasn’t been very long for you so be good to yourself, let yourself grieve. One of these days you will find yourself smiling about her a little more than crying and being sad. Please stay intouch with us and let us know how you are. Toni

                                    Wow, Duke lives up to his regal name. He is so dignified. When did he leave you? How old was he? What kind of breed/s was he? And Barbara, how are YOU doing?

                                      Oh my dog, Kate, she really looks like Squirt in this picture. What a beauty. I sent you a message a second ago, and really want to hear from you about how you are and what we can do to help you, if anything.
                                      • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 5 years, 7 months ago

                                        Oh Kate, you bring me many sweet memories because your Jane reminds me very much of my Squirt, who was nineteen when we parted. She was what they called a “Long-Haired Torty” (for tortoise). Jane could be Squirt’s great, great, great….well, you get the idea. How old was Jane? How long were you together? Are you having more smiles than tears now? I know the tears and feelings come over you, but are you feeling better? Toni
                                          • Jane was only 11 years old . We adopted her when she was 2-3 years old . She was such a brave , strong kitty . She was my soulmate . She endured surgery to remove ear polyps , years ago and they found she had MRSA. Then about a year and a half ago , she had surgery to remove 2 mammary cancer spots . A few months before her passing we learned that the cancer metastasized to her lungs , and she was having trouble breathing . She then stopped eating . She was the greatest best friend , and always so gentle abs loving to her guinea pigs and bunny brother .
                                            • And Iโ€™m so sorry about your Squirt !!
                                                • Thank you Kate. Squirt was with me half my life and we went through everything together.

                                                  Jolieen, I am so glad you mentioned therapy because I think people underestimate how helpful that can be. If you want to, it may be helpful to others to hear some of the things that are helping you. When you are ready, you might find a Memory Vessel or blown glass pendant a comforting memorial piece. You can find them in our Shop. There are many meaningful ways to remember and pay tribute to your beloved “Lucky” and a shadow box of favorite things may also bring you comfort. And, hopefully you are supported by those of us in the community who are here to listen and help. I will check in with you tomorrow to see how you are doing. Please, let us know how you are. Here is a HUG.
                                                    • Thank you. And yes, I will look at the shop. Yes, I will also share my experiences with therapy when I am ready. Thank you for your kind words. Look forward to hearing from you soon.
