    Melissa, Forever wouldn’t be long enough with our beloved pets. I am sorry you said goodbye to Holly Golightly 💔When I have parted from my beloved babies, I fee good knowing they are no longer suffering, but walking in, and being in the house is extremely quiet and lonely, and it hurts. I hope you will read my response to Lillian and take somethng from the “exercises” I suggested, and share more about what you are feeling and thinking with us here. There are many pet owners who are here for you to help you. I certainly am. With sincere sympathy, Toni.

      Lillian, I am so very sorry for your loss of sweet Poogan, and yes, the pain of parting WILL ease, with time, and some exercises you can do to help: Think of fun, funny and loving times you and Poogan shared – ask yourself if you would rarher have shared those times even though you had to say goodbye and feel the pain, or never had Poogan in your life? Write notes to Poogan telling him about those times and how much joy he brought you, and write FROM Poogan to you – what do you think Poogan would want for you now? I suspect he would want you to be happy for your shared lives and to move forward knowing he lived his best life with you. Celebrate the day you met. What a grand day that was for you both! Get out of the house if possible, maybe volunteer at a local shelter, or watch silly things on TV. Talk to friends and family, and to us here in our community of kind, understanding people. We’re here for you and want to hear from you. {{HUGS}} Toni
