Our siamese kitty passed away on the 21st of December. Our house seems so empty without her. She was 18 years old.
I have had dogs in my life forever. I have said good bye to so many over the years and it NEVER is easy. They provide the most unconditional love to us and always can manage to lift our spirits and change the direction of a day for the better. When I hold their fragile tired bodies for the last time as they head for the Rainbow Bridge, it is the most painful of heartaches. And yet, I would never consider a home without them. Their lives are fragile and far too short but I would never consider a home without the love of a dog.
^^^ Same here.....!!!!!!!
TBH........................my worst loss was not due to death.....................................my parents gave my dog away when I was away at school. :cry: He could still be alive right now and I don't even know where he is. :cry: I'm sorry, it happened 5 years ago and I'm still not over it. Never will be.
I'd like to say to everyone who lost their babies, you're all in my thoughts and prayers.
I'd also like to share this beautiful little piece I found:
For my baby Lola who passed away at 4 years old on her birthday due to PDE two days ago. I never expected to feel such a sense of grief and hurt in my heart at having to let you go but I know that you are with me as I can still sense you around the house. I want to say so much more but it seems the tears come to quickly for me to grasp all I want to write...All I can think of is thank you for being there with me for all the ups and downs in my life and never once letting me feel like I was alone. I know you are at the rainbow bridge now because you felt your job was done but please know I never stopped needing you and whenever I see a sunbeam in the backyard I will be looking for you. You will always be my number one baby girl, little lola! I think (no, I know) I loved you more than anything and anyone in this world.
