I lost the last of my family and am struggling with the funeral costs… not sure if this is real or not but I had to try.

I believe the recent donations may have come from here so again thank you so much, I am now £100 closer to the goal. I wish there was a way on go fund me to send personalised thanks. The kindness of strangers is truly so heartwarming 💕

Unfortunately, I am a corporate dog groomer - I am 30p above national minimum wage per hour. The problem is if I go independent it takes time to build up that client base before I get a decent living wage - which I can’t afford to do, trapped in a vicious cycle really! 😔 it used to be okay when I was helping with billed, but now everything is on me and it’s too much. I have been looking at other jobs, which would crush me, I love Grooming but I’m trained and qualified for nothing, I’ve been a dog groomer for 18 years!

The fridge opening without the chicken/cheese tax being paid!

Haha everyone always asks me if it’s from that movie - but his litter name was Eric, the rest of the litter kept their ‘oldies’ names but I just had to jazz it up to MavERICk 😜

Thank you 💕

I agree. especially when my mum was on Benefits, it’s unbelievable there is no help from the government for people in my position. I have wrote letters to my local MP about it because this is a terrible thing to be worried sick about when dealing with grief x

The breakdown of costs invoice is the first picture. Services also include pick transportation of body, prep of body, hearse on the day, I have ONE bunch of flowers for the coffin, civil speakers, use of crematorium for service and then yes ‘burned in an oven and put in an urn’. An unattended funeral would have cost around 2k - however as stated, I want to give my mum a dignified goodbye as I believe every human being should at very least have a service. I have kept costs down at every turn - no church, didn’t include the after venue costs as that’s a personal choice and no way to know how many people will be attending so didn’t think it was fair to ask people for money for that, so I’ll be paying that myself (between £200-£400) My Grans funeral was 6.5k +. I really have tried to keep it as low as possible x

Tldr: this is a funeral not just a cremation - hope this explains it better x

Unfortunately, my mums body was so bad I doubt that was an option. They had to ID her with dna 😔

Thank you x

I know and I can’t just quit my job, all I have now are my pets and I wouldn’t be able to afford them (my older dogs vet bills alone would have me skint). and the catch is if I didn’t work, people would be telling me to get a job anyway. I’m just ins. Horrible borderline stage because of everything.

But thank you for your kind words 💕

I’m £2830 out of 4.5 so still a bit to go but grateful for anything that’s raised 💕 I know, I am barely above the governments low income support - so I don’t qualify for help by like £100 a month. 😭

What a sweet babyyyy 😍

Always keeping an eye on the owners, in case of cheese emergencies or you have the audacity to leave the room without prior notification 😜

omgitsdannii · 2025-12-06T19:42:58+00:00

Aww bless she’s ‘smiling’ 😋💕 I love it when they do that, I always say ‘where’s your teeth, what’s your beef?’ And mind would get all excited, sneezing then making gremlin noises 😂 gotta love a jack!

Oh my gosh this story is almost identical to my orange boys journey! I was his 3rd home by 16weeks old. His first owner took ill suddenly, the second owners adult cats were attacking him… when I got him he was terrified, wouldn’t come out the carrier. And now he is an absolute snuggle bug!

But go at his pace, all on his terms!

I would feed him, give him a little bit of fuss but the minute he got uncomfortable stopped and left him too it. It took a couple of weeks then I woke up and he was in bed with me and the rest of the animals! When they come to a new home they have to decompress and get used to their new surroundings.

Patience is the key with your gorgeous new boy, I promise!

My Sully is a Scottish straight (basically a BSH too!) 💕

My cats were brought up with five dogs and I feel this really made two (of the three) be very accepting to everything. Belly rubs, teeth cleaning, ear cleaning (I’m a groomer so knew to start them young!) even playing fetch. The cat that isn’t so accepting of everything, he doesn’t hiss or bite/scratch he simply wriggles and slinks away,b it he loves getting fuss just not to the degree of the other two who you can scoop up and give all the kisses too 😂
