    We went to Petsmart and saw Santa
    • That’s a wonderful picture of fun and love. Thank you so much for sharing your joy with us , Susan :-). Your doggy looks super excited… what fun!! I hope you all continue to enjoy a spirited holiday season, and that you share more photos with us. Toni
      • I know, Susan-it’s empty and you hurt. A lot. Try to think of something silly or funny Teddy Bear did. It can be hard to look at pictures, but they can bring back some smiles, too.
        In memory of my Beauty Girl, we’re offering lasting Memorials for only $10. Why don’t you make one for Teddy Bear that you can visit and add to: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/
        It’s getting cool enough for me to wear me sweatshirt with my Beauty Girl on it and that makes me feel better. Maybe you would too. https://www.faithfulfriends.com/shop/unisex-sweatshirt/
        If you have a shelter nearby, perhaps you can visit with the cats-I’ve been thinking of doing that. Find a shelter near you here: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/find-services/
        Put in your city and use the drop-down menu.
        If you read through some of the comments here in our community, you might feel better sharing your own words of sympathy with others. It means a lot to know people understand and care. Please let us know how, and what, you are doing. Our next Group meeting is Oct. 20th at 8 pm Eastern. Please join us then. I’ll be thinking of you. Toni

        Got Teddy’s ashes last Friday.Was very sad all weekend.I really miss my Teddy Bear

        It’s really hard.I cry all the time and my boyfriend doesn’t understand
        • Susan posted an update 3 years, 10 months ago

          Last night I lost my Teddy .I Bear kitty to heart failure.I feel so broken inside.

          • Oh no, Susan. I am so, so sorry. These are the days we know will come one day, and when they do, it’s devastating. But, we know going in that our darlings are only “on loan” to us, and we get to enjoy the time of loving and joy together for as long as we, and they, can. It hurts in a way nothing else does and I feel it with you. A stuffed toy helped me – do you have something with which you can cuddle? Don’t be too quick to remove Teddy’s things. You may be surprised by the comfort they can bring you over the next days and weeks. Try to stay active and engaged with other things, and allow yourself time to feel your grief and the pain. That’s the path to a day when your memories will bring you smiles before tears. It takes a lot of love to share a life, and say goodbye. I hope you know that you and Teddy were very fortunate to have each other, and he would only want for you to rejoice in your shared life and love, as you would for him. Susan, please, please let us know how you are coming through. I’m thinking of you. {{ }} Toni

                  So sorry to hear about your other dog.I will say prayers.

                    I know Jackie it’s hard sometimes but just remember all the good times you guys had.
                    • Susan posted an update 4 years, 5 months ago

                      Wed will be a year since I lost my Bugsy.This has been a very emotional weekend for me but my boyfriend has been so sweet and understanding.He has cheered me up all weekend.

                      • Anniversaries are tough, Susan. And can be good in the memories they carry. Do you still have your kitty? May we see some pictures of both Bugsy and the kitty (and the boyfriend if you like)? I am glad you have him in your life, and that he is so supportive. Sounds like a nice man. I’ll be thinking of you and Bugsy Wednesday. Check in with us please. Here is a {{HUG}} Toni
                        • Hi Susan. Today is a day to both celebrate and remember Bugsy (not that you don’t every day). I hope your memories bring you more smiles than tears. I’m thinking of you {{HUGS}}

                          So sorry Toni
                          • Susan posted an update 4 years, 5 months ago

                            Nothing much.Facebook shared a video of my dog Bugsy and I got a little upset Thursday.

                            • Of course you did, Susan. It’s shocking to see him when you weren’t expecting to. I bet whoever posted it meant it kindly, in his memory. I ordered a canvas print of my girl. Probably will get a woven throw, too (they’re really nice). But that’s different from seeing Bugsy when you weren’t prepared. How are you doing now, Susan?
                            • Susan posted a new activity comment 4 years, 8 months ago

                              Yes he is really nice and I am falling in love with him
                                • Oh my gosh, Susan, what a wonderful thing to hear. I know we are all delighted for you both. Now….spill the “T” … how did you meet – dog walking or volunteering at a shelter…or what???? May we see pictures of his dog (and him, if you like)? Happy Holidays indeed!!

                                      • Yes he is really nice and I am falling in love with him
