Grateful for the women in this video who provide support and a safe place for grieving the loss of a furbaby.

Thank you for this. And thank you for understanding. In addition to my fur babies I foster senior, blind and hospice dogs. It hurts. So very much. But I feel blessed to give love and comfort to these rejected souls. Even if it only a few days they will get so much love, comfort and purpose while with me. Because I believe they each find me for a reason. And with each life shared they bring me so much happiness and love.

I was recently feeding a homeless cat for almost 3 years. He was not friendly but I considered it was because of negative past experiences. He had health issues that seemed to persist so I gave him many natural remedies a warm bed and regular meals and clean water since I knew I could not get him to a vet. He became weaker over time and allowed my husband and I to clean him up and take him to the vet. He even purred. He had very serious terminal illnesses and even though he was given fluids with vitamins the doctor offered to let him stay overnight which we did. He passed the next day and it is so hard to get over it even though I know he is pain free and at peace. Time heals all wounds.
This is never easy I have been through it many times. He will never be forgotten.

Thank you for this. My beloved pet rabbit died yesterday. She was my best friend. I also considered her my family member. I'm still grieving. It is painful. I miss her so much. 😭
