It is very hard to have your pet put down,sending hugs & flowers to help you
4554My beloved cat Rubi has left me two years ago, she was old 19 years.
I was very sad.
Now I have a poodle toy, Kira, and I'm very happy!!!
I don't forget, ever, my Rubi....

Did your cat go off to die? Sometimes cats do that. My favorite cat I got from my first grade teacher and died while I was a freshman in college 13 years later. I remember my mother hated to write that letter.

No, she is dead in the home, to the evening she was alive (she suffered, she was ill) to the morning later she was dead.
I have not told to my daughter (she was 4 years old) immediately.I hoped that the poodle could help to forget her.She love a lot the poodle but when she discovers Rubi is dead she has cried much, so much Every day she says:"I feel the lack of Ruby!" I'm very sad when she says this.
1471Fee3l so sorry for you, but later you will think of all the good memories you have had with your pad. Now I can only give you a flower, hope it helps a little bit
58029katy being a person who generally cares more for animals than people I can truly feel your pain. I've been hurt in my heart so many times by our 'human' friends that when you get the conditional love a pet there is nothing that can compare. There is a wonderful poem that will help heal your heart. It will make you cry but I think you'll feel much better after, please go to www.petloss.com/poems/maingrp/rainbow.htm I hope this will help and we are all here for you.

I just read it and I'm on my third tissue. I'm not sure I was ready for it. I also read "heaven's doggy door" on the same site. It was easier for me and meant something too! thank you for thinking about.
17161I'm sorry to hear that! That is a hard decision to have to make. Can tell how much you loved your Jessie - 18 years. Wow! Blessings & a flower.
3995This is a hard thing to do, I've held quite a few as they cross over. I'm so sorry for you. Our pets hold such a place in our hearts, don't they? Ask so little but give so much. AllI can give you is a flower.

22 years. Oh my! Modern day meds, I guess. You know when we were children, pet didn't live that long. I don't have the heart to add up my vet bills.
22886I am sorry to hear that. I had a dog and had to do the same and it was painful. I know what you feel. Flower and XoXo

I have taken 4 dogs in to be put to sleep over the years. I decided to stay with Jessie until the end to help finalize everything. I think it helped. It was peaceful.
44254I know it's sorrowful to lose what u love katy, but U did the right thing, U wouldn't want her to suffer when U can do something about it. My aunt buried her kitty of 17 yrs. & planted a rose there in her garden & placed a statue of St. Francis of Assissi there in memory of her. She has pictures as I'm sure U do & talks of the sweet things she did. Your memories will always b there 4 U. *4U
145789I'm so very, very sorry Kay. I know your heart is so heavy. You were brave to do the right thing by your precious friend. May Jessie rest in a place of honor. Hugs to you dear one.
158553There are no words to console us when we lose a loved one and though some people can never understand how much "WE" love our four legged babies, some of us do. I pray that time and precious memories will help ease the pain of your loss. My heart aches for you. Meg

I only lived with my husband for 24 years and probably got over him faster. I guess that sounds bad. Even my daughter said I seemed happier after the divorce. thanks for caring.
7833Oh my gosh... I am SUCH a huge lover of my dog and she is going to be 9 next month (she's a black lab named Simply Rosie). My heart breaks for you Katy... I'm so sorry!!! It's soooooo hard to let them go, isn't it? Can I give you a virtual hug??? xoxo

If I could I would give you a heart felt hug!!! It is such a tough decision - but a loving one!! Take care and remember good times not the last few weeks. Hugs and Luv sent your way. *4U sue

She had been in declining health for a while but was able to get around. go out the doggie door and eat o.k..Thursday night, she seemed to have a stroke and I didn't think she would make the night. Friday morning I discovered she couldn't stand so I called the vets' office and took her in. I knew it was the right to do. I was quick and peaceful.
5924oh katy that is so hard and I know just how you feel, I had to do that before and it's the hardest thing I ever had to do. My heart goes out to you *****'s

I had her for a long time, but it is hard to do. Her quality of life was gone.
