Karen I’m so sorry to hear about Charlie boy’s passing. It’s so hard to have to say goodbye to our beloved pets but sometimes as I recently found out with my beloved Oliver, it’s the greatest gift we are able to give our beloved fur babies. Please know that I pray daily for all who have lost a beloved pet or human that they may feel God’s living healing embrace.

Thank you Diane for your kind words. It truly helps to having a supportive community who is able to understand the grief and pain we feel from the loss of a beloved animal family member. may you too feel God’s loving healing embrace as you mourn the passing of your beloved pet(s).

Pam I’m so sorry for your loss. I feel your pain and want you to know that I pray daily for all people who’ve lost a beloved pet or human that they may feel God’s loving healing ❤️‍🩹 embrace.

Alesa,
I’m so sorry for your loss and feel your pain. It’s never easy to say goodbye to bye to our beloved friends but as I learned this past weekend and multiple times before, it’s the greatest gift we are able to give them, sometimes. I won’t say the pain will ever go away or it will get easier with time because each person’s journey is different. I had to say goodbye to a cat I’d only had in my life 2 1/2 years, this past Saturday but it was probably the hardest goodbye I’ve made off all the cats I’ve had because he truly was my soul cat. I didn’t adopt my Oliver, he chose me as his human. When I did my pre-adoption visit I did a crate visit because his surviving bonded brother,Sebastian, was and still is very timid and shy and they didn’t want to force him out of the crate. Anyway when I reached in the crate to pet them, Oliver put his paw over my hand and started licking me. I knew then they both were coming home with me, I just never dreamed Oliver would be gone in 2 1/2 years. Hopefully in time your grief and pain will lesson. One thing I’ve. Found helpful in easing my shattered heart is to share Oliver’s story in online support groups like this one. My vet also has an individual who leads an online zoom support group and also offers one/one therapy sessions. I’m not sure how much she charges for the later or if she’d be willing to do this via tele-health but if you’re interested I’ll gladly share her contact information with you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers as you mourn Bruno’s passing. May you and all others mourning the loss of a beloved animal or human feel God’s loving healing embrace.

Toni,
I’m so sorry to
Hear of the passing of Walter. In the short time he was with you in his final fur ever home you both touched each other’s lives and once again your heart is hurting and has another hole, hopefully at the right time to be filled by another fur baby in need of a loving fur ever home as Walter was.
As hard as it is to say good bye for the final time you made the right decision to set him free of his pain Hindsight bring for sight, I let my spirit suffer longer than she should have because I was selfish and wasn’t ready to say goodbye. While the decision to set Autumn Ranger and Saraya free wasn’t easy I tried to be less selfish and release them earlier on so they didn’t have to suffer anymore
You and everyone else mourning the loss of a beloved animal or human are in my prayers.

Thanks for the invite Toni. I will try to join the zoom meeting this Thursday providing I don’t get sidetracked and forget. Hugs and prayers to all of you who are struggling with the loss of a beloved pet. Remember to be gentle with yourselves and don’t let others get to you when they think you should be over your loss by now. Until they have lived and experienced loss they will never understand. For many people who have never had a pet it’s just an animal to those of us who have loved a beloved animal it is/was a family member.

Hi Toni,
Sorry I’ve been so out of touch. Thank you for thinking of me and checking in. I meant to let you know I would be unable to make the August zoom meeting as I was doing last minute vacation preparations, as I left the next day for twice two weeks to visit family in NH. I was also very worried about whether or not I’d be able to get one of my two new boys into the carrier to bring to NH with me. Thankfully all worked out and the 4 of us made it safely to NH and back again. I fulfilled my promises that I made to both Spirit and Autumn Ranger. On August 4, I welcomed two bonded 9 year old declawed boys, Oliver and Sebastian. I chose to keep their given names since they were older boys and I didn’t want to confuse them. They ended up back in the shelter after their human had to enter a nursing home. Oliver is a very out going and friendly and is nicknamed by me, Mr. Pudge, as he weighs in at 17 1bs. We’re trying to work on loosing some weight but time will tell. H…

Continuing to hold you in prayer Carmelina and hoping that you are able to find some peace and healing in the wonderful memories you shared with Milo, over those 21 years. Never forget that while Milo is no longer with you person, he’s watching over you from the other side of the Rainbow Bridge and loves you from the great beyond as he did when he was with you. Holding you in prayer.

So sorry to hear of Scarlett’s passing. Please don’t blame yourself for not being aware of Scarlett’s illness. Animals have a way of hiding illness abs disease until it’s to late. Both of my girls whom I lost with in less than two months of each other would never have been diagnosed with their thyroid and kidney disease if they hadn’t presented with other medical concerns for which I brought them to the vet. Scarlett wants you to try to remember and cherish all the wonderful happy times you shared together. Her love for you even from beyond is unconditional. Holding you in prayer.

Kristi,
I’m so sorry for the loss of your dear sweet boy Apache and for his fur sister who is grieving his loss as much as you are. Hopefully the two of you in your own special ways will be able to help each other heal. Praying for you and Apache’s fur sister during these difficult and painful times.

Marybeth,
I’m so sorry for you and your family during this difficult and painful time. It’s never easy to say good bye to a beloved fur baby. I myself know I lost my Spirit and Autumn Ranger within less then two months of each other both passed from Thyroid and Kidney disease. Hopefully in the remaining weeks that you have with this dear sweet boy, you and your family can create some wonderful memories with him. Maybe even create a bucket list of things you’d like to do with him, if he’s not in to much pain, to create wonderful and lasting memories. I think it’s very touching that your son sees this precious boy as part of the family and wants to have him included in his Senior pictures. That says a lot about your son and the wonderful young man he must be. Holding you all in prayer at this difficult and painful time.

Glenda, I’m so very sorry to hear of Kissinger’s passing. I think it’s even tougher when they cross the Rainbow Bridge, unexpectedly. Two consolations to hopefully find in his passing is one, you didn’t have to help make the decision for Kissinger and secondly, he knew it was his time and he did everything he could do in his own sweet way to say good bye to you and try to let you know what an important part of his life you were to him. Holding you and all your fur babies in my prayers.
