      @imom2nicknrach Stephanie, I am sorry for your loss of Kasey💔Please tell us about Kasey- what kind of pet, how you met, how long you were together – anything you would like to share, including your feelings. We are here to support you. Toni

      • Stephanie, I’m sorry for your loss of Kasey 💔 I know the heartache you are going through and I’m sending you warm thoughts and comforting hugs 💔
        Peace be with you at thus very sad time.
        • Maureen hi this is Brony. I lost LULU last June, I adopted LUCY and lost her this morning. Didn’t even have her a year. I must be a bad mommy. Or I believe a person to tell me the truth. It hurts so bad.
          • Brony… No. You are not a “bad mom”. You are a kind, caring, generous person who opened herself to another love after losing a dear beloved friend – Lulu. Please don’t even think that of yourself. Here’s the thing- we do not control the pets in our lives. We care for and about them, but they, like we, have their own paths to travel. We can give them creature comforts and care and love, but every one of us has a road to follow, and Crazy Lucy followed hers, Brony, it hurts so deeply, and I am, we are, so very sorry, but just think what a nice, safe, kind life you gave to Lucy ( and Lulu). Please, please. be kind to yourself knowing Lucy, and Lulu, knew your love, and that they would want you to be happy for the lives you shared. Stay here with us as you move throught this, Brony. We are here for you. Toni
            • Thank you, Toni. I’m glad you are here to help me. I was feeling like such a failure
              • Oh Brony, I am so, so sorry for your loss of Lucy 💔 Oh, my heart hurts for OH, and I wish I could give you a big hug. You are not a bad Momma and Im sure Lucy (and Lulu) would agree. You loved and took care of her. Please don’t blame yourself. You took her in even though you were still grieving for your Lulu and gave her a safe and loving home. Be gentle with yourself and know that you did everything you could to keep her safe and happy. May I ask what happened to Lucy? Again, I’m so very sorry for your loss.
                Sending you warm, comforting hugs at this very sad time 💔 ❤️

                            What a beautiful tribute, Leslie Ann. Your song is so moving and perfectly expresses the special relationship we have with our beloved babies – the wonderful love and joy, and the pain of parting. This is just lovely and I thank you for wharing your heart with us. 💔I hope you join our meeting Thursday May 16th – I’d love to meet you. Toni

                              Shelters are teeming with puppies and kittens. If you have room in your home and heart, please adopt a more mature new friend💕💕

                              @sandramorales Danger. What a great name. May we hear about Danger and see some photos? And Sandra, how are you doing now? I am so sorry for your loss and hope you will share with us here. Toni

                            • Toni Noel posted a new activity comment 2 years, 3 months ago

                              Angie, again, I am so sorry. Time is distorted when we suffer a loss, especially with Marty being so young. There is no timeline for getting used to the emptiness, but I do hope you are finding some comfort in comforting Tommy and Marty’s momma. How are they doing now? Please come to our group support meeting May 16th – I think it will be good for you to talk with us about Marty, and your feelings. And please keep sharing here in our community. We care and are here for you.

                                I am so sorry, Toni. 💔Fifteen years sounds like a nice run, but 115 wouldn’t be long enough if we had our way. We know in our heads that our pets are only on loan to us, that one day we will have to say goodbye, but it hurts deep in our souls when that day arrives. Please tell us about Lexi. How did you meet? I hope you recall the many fun, funny and loving times you were lucky to share, and that you find some comfort there. Our kind, caring group meets Thursday May 14th at 7 PM Eastern and I hope you will join us. We’re here for you. Toni

                                  Brandy, I am so very sorry you had to say goodbye to Henry.💔 What a darling boy. Henry was there for you, and now you can continue to be there for him by embracing the good memories you created and shared, don’t you think? Tell us about Henry, please – how you met, how long you were togethr – anything you’d like to share. We are here for you with sympathy and support. Toni

                                    It is Spring! Puppy and kitten season! They are so cute and need homes, but so do the older, mature animals languishing in shelters and rescues. Please, if you are ready to open your home and heart to a new friend (or two), make time to meet with these wonderful new friends. And when you do welcome a new friend, or friends, into your home, please share with us here in our Community. 🤗🎉Toni
