Grieving over the loss of a pet 😔

I lost my beloved girl last new years eve under horrible circumstances. She was healthy and happy one day, the next she was dying and dead. I couldnt even say goodbye. She was only three and a half years old. She was a force of nature, such a huge, inspiringly good spirit in her little Scottie body. My black diamond I called her. Or little dragon.

I have not forgiven this monstrous absurdity that is death. Fuck death. :fu:t2:

I am not over it and I doubt I’ll ever be. I still cry for her a lot. When I go to sleep I often experience her death again, the horror and shock. Sometimes I scream. I hardly sleep at all since then.

Love love, always. It’s all there is.

That’s a beautiful urn you got there for him. All mine are in nice wooden boxes. I miss the little sun bather too :cry:

Minnie and The Fox up there in the eternal sun

I love how you got his collar around it.

I’m so, so sorry for your loss! Do you have a plan for your beloved? Cremation, burial, etc. In the UK, we can also get ashes of our pets and jewellery…I don’t know if you can.
Much love to Rocky and yourself. I’m sure he was so loved. I so wish our best friends lived longer x

Very nice! I love the nose print. I did something similar but with my boys paw print. When I am nervous or anxious I touch this spot and it’s like I’m holding his paw again

Thank you yes they sure are!

My previous dog Penny helped save me when my closest friend died of an overdose. I don’t know how I’d have managed without her. When she died it was like I’d lost family.

Now we have Willow and although I’ll always be sad about losing her, time is a great healer. I’d definitely recommend putting your love into a new dog when you are ready. That’s really helped me a lot.

Me & Willow this month-

…and Penny, never forgotten! :heart:

I myself have had so many loved pets leave this world in my 61 years. Many lived long beyond their life expectancy which I was fortunate to have for so many years. I too am a firm believer of sharing your love and memory in a new pet. Not only does it ease the sadness but you are providing a wonderful loving environment for another who may not get the opportunity to show you love. My opinion only and some people don’t agree with this. My heart goes out to all who lose their pets.

Wow beautiful pets! Yes you’re exactly right. We found a stray dog a couple months ago. We named her Dalila. She’s been very helpful in this hard time. We also have 2 smaller dog’s to give our love to. Sorry for your loss too. Flowers :bouquet:

So sorry for your loss, hunnie! :people_hugging::broken_heart: I lost my dog to chronic kidney disease back in September. I cried for days. Dogs are truly the best. They love us even at our worst. Sending you all the love. :heartbeat:

I agree!

I still miss my Haley every day. I am so grateful to have spent 4 years with her (I adopted her as a senior rescue).

After a few months, I adopted another senior rescue and I named her Betty. We helped heal each other and are besties. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Love your Willow and Penny! :heart_eyes:

So sorry for your loss. Fur babies are so special!! The unconditional love they give us is so one of the world most precious things!!!

I’m so sorry. To lose both at the same time, I have no words! :people_hugging::people_hugging::people_hugging::people_hugging::people_hugging::people_hugging:

I lost my baby girl exactly one year ago. I’ve never been in so much pain before. I know how you feel. Think of all the love you have for them and they for you and let that guide you. That’s what I did. Don’t let that love die or go bad by giving up on yourself, going into addiction or anything of the sort. Honour that love and grieve and get another dog when the time comes. You’ll never not miss them but you will love another dog soul again. I send you all the strength and compassion and soothing I can in this time. They look so precious. Really lovely dogs. , :heart: :broken_heart:
