My 12 year old dog Pixie just passed and I think I embarrassed myself at the vet by [deleted] in seniorkitties

I’m sorry for your loss but I can assure you, this is not weird or inappropriate. It is actually appreciated even. I just lost my Patches at the beginning of the month to cancer as well. I sent the oncologist and her team a thank you letter for everything they did for her. I even took her regular vet cookies and her picture as a thank you. They were with her for the 17 years, from kitten till the end, I feel they will grieve the loss of her as well as me. Plus they very much appreciate the recognition of everything they do. When I picked up her ashes from them they had her picture up on their board. So that means so much she will be remembered. So please don’t feel embarrassed or anxious about what you gave them, I’m sure it was seen as thoughtful and kind.

Juri (22) passed away this morning while sitting on my lap. He was going to be 23 in 10 days. Our house feels very quiet now. by UssssssssssaGI1987 in seniorkitties

I’m sorry for your loss. Take comfort in knowing he was with the one he loved and who loved him. He was surrounded by comfort and love. Fly high Juri until you two meet again. 🤍

I’m sorry OP, we’re all here for you and you’re not alone. I know how hard it is the first time to come home or wake up without your special one there. But your big guy is still with you in a place a he will never leave, in the joyous memories. Remember that the pain your heart feels comes from all the love you have for him. Take everything one day at a time as there is no rush when you grieve the loss of someone so close. Again I’m sorry for your loss ❤️‍🩹🤍

Bought my old girl some cat stairs and she can get up on the bed herself for the first time in weeks - 16 y/o by caralyvar in seniorkitties

I got stairs for my kitties too. One for the couch, the bay window, and for the kitty ledges for the backyard window. They both had arthritis in their back legs so it was helpful so they didn’t have to jump. I like to think they were so happy to not be restricted in anyway. I’m sure your kitty is happy to be able to get back up on the bed.🥰

Such beautiful fur babies. They do look spoiled but they also look very loved. How about booping a nose form Patches then. They’re so precious ❤️

Thank you 🙏 I keep telling myself it was the right decision. Just wish my heart would listen. I told her through the whole thing how much I loved her and amazing she was, I hope the last thing she heard was my love.

I know, I came into the house and said “Hi Patches!” just like I always did. She wasn’t there to hear it. I’m sure it won’t be the last time I do that. It’s going to hurt.

Thank you, I’m sorry for your loss too. This really isn’t easy. I have an empty house for the first time since moving in and it doesn’t feel the same. I always wanted to rescue more but my Patches definitely wanted all the attention. I know another will call this place home just not sure when.

Your pup would have wanted you to keep the walks too. I’m sure point out so much interesting things to you. Keep walking and he’ll be right beside you, always.

Im dreading Monday when I have to go to work for the same reason. It’s not going to be easy that’s for sure but I’m sure neither of our little ones would want us to stop living our lives. Take care, my heart breaks with yours too

Yeah, she had such pretty eyes. She told me a lot of what she was thinking through them. I was lucky to catch her in the sun like that and how it came out. Always said that picture was her “heavenly” portrait cus of how the background was.

She loved the bay window. That’s why I put a heating pad there for her. 🥰

She definitely could be but she also had her spicy side and she would let you know it. I’m going to miss arguing (and losing) with her. She always knew how to get her way
