    Susan, I am sorry Comet is physically gone, but know he lives in your heart and memories. Many states are legislating puppy mills and you might want to contact your representatives to become active in those efforts. let us know what you find out, and please let us know how you are doing. Do you have other pets now?
      • My 3 year female orange cat went through hoarders and the couple were arrested as many cats were found deceased . Snoozy is a survivor and I love this beautiful orange eyed cat.

          @mcfadden Hi Susan. Please tell us about Comet: what type of pet was Comet? How long were you together? How did you meet? May we see some photos? How are you doing, Susan?

          • Comet was my 14year old Bichon Frise. He was a puppy mill 5 month old survivor.Please end PUPPY MILLS.

                @silvia Hello Silvia. Welcome to our caring community. We’d love to hear about your pets, and see pictures if you like. Are you doing okay?

              • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 5 years, 5 months ago

                1. Your cats have the best names.
                2. Do you think it was a kindness to Sea Salt that he didn’t have to suffer the ailments the vet identified? Of course it is shocking for you, and traumatic, but it sounds as if he didn’t linger and suffer.
                I am truly sorry and sad for your parting. Castiel will bring you joy and love, not to replace Sea Salt, but to add to making new memories. We look forward to photos and stories. Please let us know how you are doing. Hugs
                  • Hi. Thanks for responding. Yes, maybe it was for the best that Sea Salt died at home with me comforting him. Sure did hurt to lose him, though, and it has been very rough on my younger daughter, who misses him terribly. Castiel has been a blessing to us, and especially to my husband, who is actually more of a dog person. I am attempting to download my pictures from our thumb drive, so hopefully I will have pictures soon!

                      I used to watch Supernatural! That’s a great name, and meaning.

                          I’m glad you said that, Lynn. How do you use it to bring comfort?
                            • It’s a place in my yard where I can go and reflect on the good times I shared with my cats. I plant catnip that I know they loved and just talk to them.

                              @vetmom52 Hello Randy, and welcome to our community. Please tell us about Honey and Baby, share some pictures, and let us know how you are doing.

                              That’s what we love to see, Tay! What a magnificent job you all are doing for little Ryuu. I must give a lot of credit to the other cat (who is that?) taking care of him, plus taking a pretty good swipe from him:-). Please share what you learn from the vet so we can all benefit. I can’t thank you enough for sharing this with us. We’re all excited to follow his progress. Toni

                                Well that’s a shmae, Kathy. I remember you were concerned about them getting too attached to you, but they won’t really

                                That’s a shame, Kathy. I remember you were concerned about them getting too attached to you. I think pets may be more resilient than we are, though :-). Yes, do show photos, and stay in touch. Best wishes to you, too.

                                  • Kathy, How is your move going?
                                      • HELLO TONI, I’M STILL HERE IN GA FOR 1 MORE WEEK AND THE LONGER I STAY THE MORE I FALL MORE IN LOVE WITH RUDY AND ROXANNE I MEAN ROXANNE IS BY MY SIDE 24/7 UNTIL I HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE AND THEN SHE WILL SIT ON THE BED AND WAIT FOR ME TO GET BACK SO I’M TAKING LOTS OF PICTURES

                                      Oh my, Lisa, you have me smiling and crying at the same time. What a charming and moving ode. How kind and dear you are to write this, and generous to share it with us. I don’t know if you use Facebook, but if you want to post it, our name on Facebook is MYFaithfulfriends. Thank you, thank you, for this poetic gift. Toni

                                        It’s nice, and I know how important a memorial is, Dianne. It can really help heal. Just click the “Memorials” tab at the top of this page. We have to charge a very nominal fee of $29./year to help offset our cost. You may share anything you want about Bessie, as many photos as you like, and keep adding as often as you want. Please let me know if you need any help. Hugs.

                                          Thank you for sharing your sympathy and support, Dianne. Our community doesn’t work without, well, our community members. We recently opened our memorials area and I wonder if a memorial to Bessie would be a healing place for you to keep her memories, that you can visit and update, and know it’s always there for you. I’ll be writing more about the healing help memorials can provide, but one major benefit is to have a place just for Bessie so you can open your heart to more joys and loves. You are so kind to care for and about others who are hurting. That means so much. I’m happy to hear from you, Dianne.
                                            • I would love a memorial to my Bessie.She is always my best friend.

                                                  Kathy, I am glad to hear from you with your update. Are you moving from your sister’s home? Will you be able to visit with Rudy and Roxanne?

                                                            Elaina, we welcome you to our caring community of pets lovers, most of whom have experienced the deep pain of parting from our beloved pet. It is so kind of our members to extend their own sympathy and understanding – it helps us to know we’re not alone, someone really understands, and cares. Thank you Shannon, for reaching out. Elaina, was Holly a cat by any chance? My 17 year old has compromised kidneys (among other problems) and I think it is a common ailment in cats. Perhaps dogs too? Would you like to share some of your photographic memories with us? Mourning takes as much time as it takes- there is no time frame, but hopefully your smiles will come before tears and your sweet, fun memories will bring you comfort, and much joy for the life you shared. Stay with us, Elaina, and let us know how your are dong.
                                                              • Yep. Holly was a cat. She had the most beautiful eyes. I remember the day after I put her down, it was such a painful day for me. I couldn’t believe she was just gone, just like that. I couldn’t walk around my apartment. I just couldn’t. I just laid in bed all day crying for her. Weeks to follow. It was such an emptiness, a silence. The silence was venue loud because it was a reminder she was no longer here with me. I have tons of pics of her. She was my heart.
