I’m developing a smart wet food pet feeder I call Catzenpup, that opens single servings of wet food for cats and small dogs.
Let me know what you think!

Help please. My cat wants me to ask the community about Acupuncture. She is scheduled for a first treatment this week for her kidneys and soft tissue problems. Does anyone have experience with acupuncture? Can you tell us what to expect -does it hurt? Does it help? Thank you for your insights. Toni and…..my Cat 🙂
-
I’m a homeopathic physician and have used acupuncture very successfully on animals and humans. Go for it.

Thank you, Elizabeth. That makes me feel better. She’s having some trouble jumping, and with her compromised kidney functions, acupuncture seems like a good option if it doesn’t stress her too much (she’s 17 now). I’ll post how we do after our session. By the way, if you can offer suggestions about alternative treatments to others in our community who may have specific concerns, please do – we are all here to help and support one another. Thank you again 🙂

Doggie drinking? Cute! I love her face in the photo with …your daughter, or wife? And you with her on your shoulder – that’s so sweet. How old was Jolie? -

How wonderful, Elaine. You are right-Jesse has his own place in your life, home and heart. It’s kind and generous of you to welcome him :-). Keep us updated. -

Elizabeth, sorry for the tardy reply but it seems my internet wasn’t working right. Naddily Grace was such a tiny girl, I can see how being stepped on would injure her. What a shame. I am so sorry, Elizabeth. You shared a long, lovely time together, and you surely have a hole in your heart for her. But, how generous and kind, and loving, of you to welcome a new love and joy into your home and heart. Naddily Grace will be very pleased for you both. Thank you for sharing with us, Elizabeth. Please share more stories about Naddily Grace, and your new pup. And let us know how you are doing. We love to share. Toni -

You are such a nice pet person, Tim. A new pet doesn’t replace any other, but brings its own personality, quirks, joys and love. We are grateful for your sharing with us and always look forward to hearing more from you, and please …. pictures of Libby!! And, Jolie, of course 🙂 Toni

Dana, thank YOU for sharing your inspiring stories. And your loving spirit :-). Little Grunt-Grunt is very lucky to have such care. I understand how sad and heartbreaking it is to see them fail – my 17 year old is on lots of meds and yesterday I noticed her walk is off a bit, so I’m scheduling yet another doctor appointment. It’s hard, especially because they don’t complain. And you are right about taking the pain in exchange for the love and joys. We know going in that one day we’ll have to part, that they are only “on loan” to us. Keep us updated on how you and Grunt-Grunt are doing. Hugs -

Hmmmph. Seven seems awfully young to be a “senior”, doesn’t it? You’re obviously doing things right to have so many over twelve. Good for you, great for them. Thanks for sharing with us. -

Maria-Catharina, Thank you for sharing your darling Hansi with us. Yep, you are right acknowledging it was best for him to peacefully pass, but darn it’s so, so hard to say goodbye. I am so sorry. His face is so sweet, and his personality really comes through. But, you wouldn’t want him to endure suffering, and he wants you to enjoy your life knowing he was, and is, an important part of your happiness. Please let us know how you are doing. Hugs…. -

Oh my – three more dogs! That’s lovely. By “senior”, what does that mean? My vets call cats over seven “senior” and frankly, I object :-)…. maybe ten or so, but seven? What is considered senior for dogs?-
Ananything over seven. All my dogs are over 12

Kerry, it’s good to hear from you. And it’s good your grandkids were with you to share memories of Oscar, even though it hurts. I find looking at pictures can really bring out emotions, happy and sad, and I am glad you have the ‘kids with you to do that. And I know what you mean about a “grief like this” – it’s different from others. We’re here for you and want to hear from you, Kerry. Here is a Hug 🙂 -

Oh Megan, Bubba is tooooo cute. He stands like a show dog. How wonderful for you both to find each other. I am so happy for you! You have been through so many losses and I hope you and Bubba find great joy and happiness to help heal and move forward. Please share some more pictures – he’s just adorable 🙂 -

Dianne, yes, of course you will. Birthdays and anniversaries always stir up our thoughts and memories more than usual. Last night a human friend of mine died at 36 and, while it doesn’t help when I think of my old (17 year old) cat failing, it DOES give me perspective on the life cycle, how none of us know how much time we get, and to embrace life and joy while we can. Bessie most definitely loved, and loves you, too, and wants you to keep her always in your heart while you allow yourself happiness in her memory. Let us know how you are doing, Dianne. -

I think that’s a nice thing to be doing – just remembering Taffy. Oh my goodness – what a smile :-). Sydney, thank you for sharing this. How old was Taffy? How did you meet? How long were you together? Do you have pets now?-
Taffy was 13. I bought him from a pet store. I do have three dogs. They’re all seniors

Spending a quiet, loving evening with my girl. She likes for me to blow gently, warmly, on her fur, rub her belly, and scratch her fanny. These private, special moments bring a joy from deep within, don\’t they? -

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. “Cost is only an issue in the absence of value” is very apt when it comes to providing a peaceful passing in the comfort of home, with loving family, human and pet. Our friends at Pet Loss at Home can help locate in-home services in many areas around the country and are a valued resource at this most difficult time. Again, thank you for sharing this with the community, Tim.-
ANYTIME Toni!!
Also for the community, dont wait too long to find another furfriend!! The wait in between Jolie & Libby was hard on us because it felt lonely. Grieve is necessary BUT your passing animal would not want you to grieve long. We have TOO MUCH love to give a fur friend!!! We waited almost five months before getting another little one! And we would not have waited that long if Libby came to us sooner!!

Oh Patty, yes, heartbroken, deep grief and sadness…..May I say that you did the very best for and by MuShu, and you can bet she knew everything you did was for her best, and from love. None of us get to stay in our bodies forever – but they stay in our hearts forever. Gosh, she was a beauty. Those eyes! I am sad and teary knowing she isn’t with you now. But Patty, you are a wonderful “cat mom” and MuShu wamts you to go forth and enjoy the rest of your life, one day perhaps open your home and heart to another love. Thank you for sharing your story and pictures. Please stay an active member of our caring community. Others need your kind words of understanding and support. And, we are here to support YOU as you move through this extremely difficult time. Hugs to you. Toni-
Thank you so very much Toni for such kind words! I truly appreciate your beautiful message. I hope someday I can open my heart up to another precious fur baby that’s needs as much love as I do. Thank you again and may God forever bless you ♥️

Thank YOU Lisa for your kind words. I had a dog named Moses. Was your Moses a dog, too? What type of pet was Chester? Please tell us about them and share photos if you like. How are you doing – okay? -

Jill, no one in this community will ever question your pain, nor the length of time it takes to move through it. We have a book to help heal – “Griffin’s Heart” ($27.99). It was written by Reagan J. Pasternak (you may know her from her acting career) and Reagan had a very close love with her cat Griffin. She wrote the book to help herself heal and is making it available to our community. It’s in our Shop if you want to try that. We’ll be releasing a Paw’d Cast with Reagan soon. Jill, stay with us – we are here for you. Here’s a HUG. Toni - Load More
