*hug* I recently lost two of my childhood pets, and I can relate to how painful it is. I want to share a poem that has helped me. Rainbow Bridge this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... I know this might not help you right now, but I hope in time it will bring you comfort.  |

I think we continue to get pets...because no matter how painful it is to lose them....the good times always out weigh the bad...and no matter what you'll always have those wonderful memories. I'm so sorry this happened.  |

Thanks everyone. I know in time, the pain will ease. It's just that now, god it does hurt. She was the first dog we'd lost since my dad died, and she really was a favorite of his. So I was thinking maybe he needed some company, and she went to keep him company. Silly maybe but it's giving some comfort right now. |

I am very sorry for your loss. I think most of us keep pets most of our lives because their love and companionship and the sheer joy they bring outweights the hurt at the end of their lives. My furbabies will stay with me all my life. I will never forget them and I will keep kitties all my life. Sometimes, there is a real temptation to prolong a beloved pet's life at the expense of sense and the good of the animal. I have been through this. My mother told me once there are other kittens out there that need homes. When I let one of my cats go, I get another kitten. I am giving a home to a cat that needs one and the new little one helps me with my grief. It very hard to stay depressed when you have a baby animal around.  |

I suffer too even after 3 years without little Mollie, and now a pet cat has passed as well. I have one more kitty, and I know what is to come, YET, somehow we make room for more. Little puppies, kittens, and whatever pet you desire need us humans as their adopted families. They would be lost without us and us without them. We get attached and hard as we try to protect our hearts, they never cease to break. I am so sorry for your loss. I still feel my losses after many years. Take care time will help a bit.  |

It seems to get better but then I sit down and thoughts flood in and it is painful. I just buried the remains of a cute little frog that always got into my fountain pond. He was here for 2 years and I would talk and even baste him with pond water and he would enjoy it. Even our cat would sit and watch him but made no attempt to threaten. Somehow, he got into the grass which was several feet away from his usual area. Well, my husband cut the grass and the lawn mower decapitated him and his remains were unrecognizable at first. My husband felt so bad because he had no idea he was there. I miss his little body and how it sat on my lily pad. I know this will find some people thinking how silly, but we did become attached to this little creature who entertained us for at least 2 years. Now he is gone. |

Thanks everyone. It's been a few days since I checked this post. We're getting by. Missing our little girl, but able to talk about her now and laugh with such fond memories. My husband said...she was loved and she knew it. She was happy. That's what we have to think about. So, each day passes. And it will get better. To all of you who've lost pets, my sympathies. Take care. |
