    Pet loss and grief

    I'll have to watch this later. Right now I'm just not able. I lost Pumpkin three weeks ago today and the pain keeps getting worse. I have no moral support whatsoever from any of my family or people nearby but I do here and I am grateful for that. I just wish I could get a shelter to take all...

    things escalating with my senior, Milo...yowling/confusion?

    I didn't see any thyroid tests. My doctor runs those for me all the time because I have an underactive thyroid. Correct me if I'm wrong!

    My little Pumpkin died today

    Thank you! I thought I was doing better this morning but a few minutes ago I started crying and can't stop. I can't believe my little boy is gone. I had him over 11 years. I thought we had more time together. I am gutted and unable to cope.

    Ruby – 3,830 days was not enough

    I am very sorry about your loss. Ruby was a sweetheart! My baby Pumpkin died on April 25th. Perhaps he and Ruby already met and they are playing in Heaven! I wish that I had words of comfort for you. You're certainly not alone. This was a beautiful tribute. Thank you! <hugs>

    things escalating with my senior, Milo...yowling/confusion?

    If Milo hasn't had any blood work done to check his thyroid they should do this to see if anything is going on in that area. Has Milo been losing weight? How is he doing with his litter box?

    My little Pumpkin died today

    Thank you! I am sorry too but it's for the best because now that she's shown her true colors, I can act accordingly (I.e. stay far from her).

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I will try to do that but it's not easy. The friends I have in my apartment building are very supportive except for the one I mentioned earlier in this thread who turned on me shortly after Pumpkin died. Yesterday I had to take trash out and after I opened my door, she opened hers then closed...

    The shelter tried calling today but I was out of the house and didn't bring my phone with me. I hope to speak with them tomorrow. I'll keep you posted! :)

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I think that seeing a new puppy in my building today helped a lot. He belongs to someone on staff and they let me hold him for awhile. I wanted to take him home with me! Maybe this was Pumpkin's way of saying "I'm ok Mommy, don't worry about me." I hope.

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I'm tryng to cut myself some slack but it's not easy. I learned to be hyper critical of myself, probably because I was picked on endlessly at home while growing up. Old habit are hard to break.

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I hope that in Heaven, the Lord will let me see Pumpkin as a kitten. I didn't meet him until he was about 3-4. He was an adorable little loveable ball of fur. Today I met the new puppy that belongs to someone on staff here. He was so loving and started to snuggle in my arms just like Pumpkin...

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I did lots more of that today, even after I went out and ran errands. I catch myself thinking about having to get home to take care of his meds or something else, and then I remember that he's gone. This is a new normal I do not like. I hope the pain will ease soon. I wasn't prepared for how...

    My little Pumpkin died today

    I've been having those exact same feelings. Going out the other day when the weather was good felt awesome except for the part about Pumpkin not waiting at home for me. It's still difficult for me to go out, esp. if it's something fun. Tonight I was giving myself an insulin shot and hit the...

    I've been thinking about getting a food dehydrator but haven't gotten around to it yet. As for the oven, with my luck I'd probably burn them! lol

    My little Pumpkin died today

    Thank you! <hugs> I don't know where I found the energy for this but I did a lot of housework today. I placed a grocery order at Walmart and added a new vacuum cleaner to it because the one I had before Pumpkin died stopped working good no matter how much maintenance I did on it. It works...
