I have lost 2 dogs, and most recently, 2 cats. The dogs were long ago, in my childhood, but of course I have never forgotten them. We had one cat we had to let go in 2013, and the other just in November of 2017. It does hurt so bad, but I often picture them in my mind when I'm falling asleep...

So sorry to hear about Amara. I know how much it hurts. We had to put our little Rosie (14 yrs old) to sleep on the 17th. It was awful. What you have to tell yourself - and it's true -you did the best you could for her. I still cry every night about Rosie, but I know we did the best we...

Hello, I know just how you feel.  We lost our Zampy, age 15, on 2/15/15.  The week before was fraught with indecision about what was wrong, and what to do about it.  We ended up putting him down because it was clear that he was suffering.  Could we have done it sooner?  Of course.  But we...

Wooly Wooly (or is it Wooly Bully)? Rosie is about 11 years old, and in good health.  We adopted  her at a  local Pet-Smart adoption event.  But, as, he can be very combative, we need to make sure we make the right selection for a companion for her.  I think a kitten will annoy her too much...

Hello, all, and again thank you for your kind messages regarding sweet Zampy .It's been 2 months to the day that we had to let him go.  Although we can never replace him, we are starting to think about a companion cat for our little Rosie.  We travel a lot, and will be gone for 3 weeks this...

   I apologize for the delay in acknowledging all of your expressions of sympathy and positive comments.  I must admit I kind of disconnected for several weeks after we put Zampy down.  Now, I'm trying think only of the beautiful 15 years we had with him (a gift), rather than those last few...

I'm so sorry for your loss.  Please don't second-guess yourself about how you handled the situation.  We went through this with our Zampy just a few weeks ago.  He was 15 years old and insulin dependent due to diabtes.  When things stared going wrong, we took him to the vet, where he had, over 3...

I'm so very sorry about the loss of your sweet Simon.  We lost our sweet Zampano (Zampy) on February 15.  He was also 15, and diabetic and insulin dependent.  Things just went alll awry in a period of a week or so, his glucose levels were crazy, and the vet found old and new blood in his...

My heartfelt condolences on having to let Kitty go.  Just went through it with our Zampano ("Zampy").  The last days were awful, while we tried to find out what was wrong.  But, after myriad tests, like you, we realized that we had to put him to rest.  It's only been 2 weeks and my heart still...

Thank you for your kind comments.  This hurts so bad I can't believe it.  But, just putting 1 foot in front of the other..! will miss him all the days of my life, but hope to see him at The Rainbrow Bridge...

We lost him this past Sunday - he was 15 years old and insulin-dependent.  He was a BIG Maine Coon, but with bright blue eyes, and we think he was the sweetest cat in the whole wide world.  Things got bad for him about a week ago; his behavior had changed; he was sleeping in weird places and was...

We'll put most of it in a money market and let it gain some interest, then use some of it to buy a good digital camera, the rest goes toward our vacation in Spain & Portugal in September!

My side or sometimes back, never stomach.

I have 1 boy and 1 girl.
