Coping With the Loss of a Fur Baby: Pet Grieving Support Group - The Local Show

[@tjfSIM]

I don't know why so many people find pet grief so surprising or strange - losing an animal companion is just as painful, sometimes more so, than the loss of a fellow human. We have a unique and strong bond with our pets, they are friends that are always there for us, always pleased to see us. For many they are a focus and sense of purpose, so when they're suddenly not there anymore, it is really hard.

[@Jojo-bk2pq]

Exactly. My family and I had to put our dog to our sleep 3 days ago and I have been so sad and depressed. I don't think I've cried this hard and many times in such a short amount of time in my life. It really hurts.

[@shannon2748]

For real. I lost my sweet cat January 3rd and today is the 8th month of her passing....I still miss her so much:((((((

[@barbarac481]

I can relate to the comments I just had to let my cat go and I'm really sad she's not here anymore. I believe since God created them and before man I also belive He loves and cares for each one as He loves us so much and many don't know that I believe they go to heaven and that brings comfort. My whisper was a gift from God and I thought we would always be together.

[@Karmen2010]

I'm still morning my 10 year old black lab, Lou who we had to put down a year and a half ago

[@mariahrichardson1745]

Those who don't have a pet can't relate. It is terrible because our cats and dogs, or any pet, are more than pets, they are our companions and family. I am crying right now while watching this because I just woke up after having a dream about my Madison. I am 23 and I had her since I was 11. She was my best friend and my sunshine, and in February of this year, we had to put her to sleep. I miss her so much and I would give anything to hold and kiss her again.

I lost my beautiful baby almost 11 months ago. Vet thought she needed a bad tooth removed but it turned out to be a mouth tumour. No cure, no medication, the vet gave her a couple of days maybe a week. Letting her go broke my heart. She was my baby. I had her from 2 weeks old. Bottle fed her, etc. She was just over 12 years old. I think about her everyday. Cry most days. The pain is unbearable. I miss her so much. .

[@delyla8460]

The same kind of situation happened to me. My dog, who had just turned 12 and who I thought I would have for another three years. In August the Vet thought it was a broken molar and by September my dog was gone. It was a cancerous oral tumour. It has been a big shock. Three weeks ago. My first and maybe my only dog.

Losing a pet is similar to losing a child, in that it’s a loved one that you have unconditional love for. You don’t argue or fight with them, you worry about them and their well-being, you raise them and teach them things, and they have an innocence about them. It’s all very childlike. This is why losing them is SO devastating.

[@lisatryme3518]

I had to put my baby down today and I feel so sick. My chest and stomach hurts so bad. I'm angry and devastated at the same time. I keep thinking he is going to come home any minute and that's when it hits me, he's truly gone. I watched him take his last breath and that's the only thing giving me some comfort. Knowing we stayed together until the bitter end. He didn't expire in the woods like a stray cat. My baby passed with his family around him. He was the most playful sweetest cat ever. I truly hate it ended this way. I will never replace him. No other cat will ever be like him. You will always be missed Teddy!!!

Yup, that's me...trying to eat, waking up and going to bed are amongst some of the MOST excruciatingly painful tasks. When someone you love is sick, you try to prepare yourself for eventually losing them.

This pain hurts worse than anyone or thing that I have ever lost...and all of them combined, together. 😭🐩💔

I lost my cat Mr. Wiggles 4 weeks ago. He was just 4 years old. I found him in my backyard. His leg was injured and the. Mom would not feed him. I brought him in and bottle fed him. He grew to be a handsome little guy. We adored each other. My 11 yo cat Harriet did not readily accept him, but over time they became friends. She got sick and passed away. He stayed close to her until she died. Afterwards, He became very clingy and I grew to love him beyond belief. What a sweet baby. He developed renal failure and stopped eating. He lost 50% of his body weight and didn’t eat a bite for 8 days. It’s true non animal lovers can say cruel things. “ it’s just a cat, get another one “ , “I don’t like cats”. The Vet was very compassionate and has called me a couple times and sent me a beautiful sympathy card.

[@ChefMimsy]

I lost my 20 year old cat 2 days ago. I don't know how I can make it through the next hour, much less the next week. I'm 70 and have a chronic pain condition. I welcome the pain from it because it's much easier to handle than the pain of the loss of my cat. He was with me longer than my children, longer than my parents. I just sit and take the hours 10 min at a time, hoping I can make it through the 10 min. I sit in one place because if I walk around the house, I'll encounter something of his and I'll start wailing. The only thing that is saving me is that I have an electronic picture frame and I see pics of my grandchildren. But a pic of my kitty comes up and I'm off on another round of hysterical crying. Only the thoughts of my grandchildren keeps me going. I'm so thankful for my neighbor who has lost not only multiple pets, but who lost her husband and baby in an accident has been taking me for walks with her dogs, who are so sweet to me. Without her, I'd be in a deep dark place now.

Heck, I'm still grieving over the loss of my beloved dog that I had from my mid teens to early 20's. It's been over 20 years of grief for me! I usually just try to suppress it. My young adult daughter got a dog from the pound about a year ago. He recently suddenly started showing signs of terrible illness and was diagnosed with an advanced stage of lung cancer. Previous owners probably smoked. He deteriorated quickly in one weeks time and we had to put him down. I was very close to this dog (I lived with him for two months, and after that, took him on outings often). I was in the room this time. The whole family was. So now I'm dealing with that grief, the past grief, and trying to help my daughter though it too. WHY does it have to be so difficult !

This is the first time in my life that I couldn't be there, and it's the thing that's really making me feel guilty and confused.

She was so loving and we loved her. It's so odd not having her lay on my lap. I know she's happy and in a better place now. Still, her passing left a huge void in our hearts. RIP Pumpkin. Daddy will always love you.

I lost my Cat Rebel who was a little over 18 years old yesterday and I have hardly stopped crying. He was a little special pet in my life that I will never forget. I had been his nurse, caretaker and comforter and even though deep down I knew he was going to die I still had hope to the end. I did everything I possibly could to save his precious little life but that was not meant to be. He will always be a special part of me. He died in his home surrounded by everything familiar. The day before I had prayed in the name of Jesus that if he was not going to get better, God should take him. Rebel died yesterday morning. I know I will meet up with Him someday in Heaven but it still does not help at this point with my great loss. He totally trusted me as he was born in my apartment and I was like a second mother. But in this case I could not save him. I did everything to make him as comfortable as possible.

I just lost my little sunshine, J girl on the 21 June night. She was 10 years old. Cannot believe she is no more. She was always with me..she was my joy, my strength, and my child. losing her is heartbreaking. she died in my arms when she suffered a sudden heart-attack. it is still a shock. my eyes keep looking for her in every corner of the house and the garden...my ears are waiting to hear her voice, her footsteps... we used to spend our days, our nights, our mornings together...she was always by my side. her sudden death, made my entire world collapse. i was a very active person, but all of a sudden, I have become nothing. since Thursday night, I haven't done anything..i didn't eat properly. i cry always...think of her. i have no strength and mind's focus to do anything. i canceled all my meetings, classes, and work...it seems as if my world has come to an end.... i cannot imagine moving on without her...the past ten years was my best years of life, with such a wonderful friend all by my side. this program and reading the comments below, made me realise that I am not alone in this.... thank u so much

[@docangela9662]

After 18 years I lost my baby this weekend and I am wrecked. I am posting this on different pet loss sites because I need to heal and get out there about how much I loved my lil baby!! I think in doggy heaven my lil baby is telling her friends that my mommy loved me so much and I got ribeye, steak, lamb, sweet potatoes, corn, moussaka, pastichio and if I didn't want like or want something or turned my nose up at it, mommy would cook me something else fresh to eat. Mommy always cared, if I was cold and cover me or put a barrier so I would be warm. Mommy was so comfortable to lay in. If she thought I was overheating she would make sure I drank water and put air on for me. Mommy took me on so many vacations. So many road trips, so many cities!!! She took pictures of me every place we went. Mommy would put pillows all around her bed so I could jump and would’nt hurt myself In my old age. Mommy would always make sure I was safe and if she didn't see me for a while she would come look for me. Mommy wouldn't stay at certain hotels if they didn't allow pets or even go if she didn't think I was safe. My safety was always my mommy's main concern. Even when people would get upset with her about me she didn't care and just loved me even more. I wasn’t the cutest thing apparently others said, but mommy thought I was!! She always told me how freaking cute I was no matter how old I got! She told me daily how cute and how much she loved me. I’m like enough already mommy, I get it you love me!! AND I would say back in my own way, mommy ILOVE YOU UNCONDITIONALLY too! If mommy thought I neeed care she would grab and shield me. I’ve almost died many times in my very long life of 18 years and she was always there to care for me. Mommy wouldn’t sleep holding me if I wasnt feeling well AND always check on me. Always at night she would shine a flashlight on me to see if I was breathing and in a safe place. I always liked sleeping close to the edge of the bed for some reason and mommy would gentler so I barely felt it moved the entire pillow to safety. Mommy would always be closing doors as others would keep doors open. I did sneak out a few times but within 30 seconds my protector was there for me. Mommy was so full of love for me. So full of love. 💕 The night before I left earth she held me for 6 hours in her chair and loved me more than anyone else could imagine and said her goodbyes and reminded me of all the fun times we had together. She was crying so much. I couldn’t believe the long life we had together and I wanted to hold on longer but my lil body just couldn’t anymore. I know I wouldn’t have lived as long as I did or eat as good as I did if it wasn’t for my mommy!!!!🥰 I love her so much and I was so lucky she pick me out of my other sisters and brothers and will always love her, but I don't want her to suffer and to just hold on to my memory and the hundreds of pictures and videos that she took of me, and I hated pictures! I would always turn my back and she would say “oh peepers …how do you know I’m taking pictures of you, you are so cute I just love you so much peepers peep peep!!!” We were perfect for each other mommy and enjoyed such a long life together! I love you Mommy and always will ~Peepers

They don't judge us, they always love us, they're always happy to see us, and they're completely devoted to us in an uncomplicated way that other humans never could be. I'm glad Sadie Mae had someone who loved her so much and took her on adventures. I bet she had a wonderful life with you and that's an incredible gift to have given her. I will be thinking of you, and all the other people who have lost their cherished friends recently, in the days to come as I process my own grief and learn how to live without this furry little being who has followed me around like my own shadow for so long.

He knew when I was feeling sad, he knew when I needed emotional support and we understood each other just looking at each others faces. I miss him so much and I feel guilty. Even if he was sick taking the decision of making him sleep demolished me. In that moment I hugged him, rubbed my face on his head, told him that I loved him and that he was my baby. I just wanted to protect him. I would have given my life to save him. I'll always love him and I'd like to tell him that I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not being able to save you. I tried...

CHIP 2009-2015 As I sniffle and tear, my heart is broken. Grief is my reward for such a close and special relationship. Family tells me he was just a feral cat and I should not dwell on the loss, and I agree. But with my feelings now, comfort of any kind is fleeting. My hours of thought constantly interrupted by his conspicuous absence. He came to us born of a stray mother who chose our backyard as her birthing venue. We acquainted ourselves to the litter for domestication reasons and in time found homes for all but him. Joining our then family of house pets (cats), his was a slow road to fully trust us. He was allowed to stay with his mother in the area as we fed and took a simple interest in there health. Over time we became closer, and closer. By the time he was 2 or so I decided to get even closer. He reciprocated, and our bond of friendship and his trust in me grew. It took time and some effort but, having had many great cats as pets, I was aware of the closeness we shared as special. He learned to ask for a belly massage (Chin to nethers, every inch), sometimes insisting. Any time he was upset, lonely, or just bored, I was there for him (I'm retired). A six year old tomcat who looks you in the eye and purrs and hyper-breathes while casually closing them. Well you are his person, his pet, and he loves and trusts you. There were many (special) things that made him a little different, you know quirks. Too many to list here. He passed three days ago after suffering the dreaded urinary blockage. I could not afford the cost of the procedures required to save his life, and this has muddied my post death feelings with guilt. (What price would I pay to have him alive and well beside me? What is the price, to have the pain removed from my heart. Cash in my hand does not even begin to take his place! ) But that chance has faded, forever, and I must learn to live with loss. Oh, how I feel the loss! My tears come and go, but he does not return. Hopefully, time will help stop the tears caused by saying his name aloud, CHIPPER ! . . . . no answers but from my memory.

I wish I could join this group. Everything they're saying and feeling and describing is exactly what I am going through right now. It hurts so much having just lost my adorable cat. She was my companion, my best friend, my child, and meant everything to me. She got me through all the hard days and tough times and gave me so much love and comfort. I held her in my arms while she took her last breaths only a few days ago and it broke my heart to pieces. I miss her so much and I'm back to feeling so alone and depressed. She took away a lot of my stress, depression, sadness, and thoughts of being alone. Now she's gone and I'm left grieving sad and hurting. I work longer hours, I work weekends, I don't go right home after work, all because it's hard to be there without her and our companionship and daily routines. I can't get rid of any of her things. I leave them right where they were. If I even look at her brush I will start to tear up and we'll up in my eyes. It really hurts and I'm thankful for our time together and the love we both gave to each other. I am glad that I found this video of this group of people to help cope with what I'm going through. Not everybody will understand unless you have lost a pet you loved. Pet grief from loss is so real. I didn't know exactly how much it would effect me, but I sure found out when she suddenly passed away unexpectedly. I hope she felt my love and comfort being held by me like she always was while she took those last breaths. I love her so much. I miss her so much 😭🥺

I lost my girl kitty, Hafsa, yesterday, all of a sudden, she lost her ability to walk, it was so devastating, and I quickly raced her to the vet, but she had 3 convulsions like, and the vet said that her pulse was weak, and her heart very low...so we put her down.....slowly....I am so sad and angry that I did not get her to the vets earlier like 4 months ago to get her blood tested. I have low income, have no car, and the vets around here are very expensive and not helpful. I am still so sad, she was 14 years old, and I kept her overnight in my apartment with roses in her arms, and I loved on her all night. Today I brought her in for cremation, even though it still feels too soon to do, but her body started to stink after one day, not even 24 hours, but I gave her to the process. I believe the spirit hoovers in the home for 3 days after death, I believe, and I wish I could have kept her body one more night, to let her adjust along with me too. You know what I mean? I swear, I could feel her purring when I would rub her belly and body last night.....it was very heartwarming to spend time with her beautiful body and grieve as well as to share my love and story with her. But my emotions are going all over the place today....it is so hard to be without them anymore and wake up to them no more.

This is long... so you don't have to bother reading it, I just want to share it with someone.. I just want someone to talk to... Just over a week ago, we found this small wild kitten at our house with nowhere to go. We brought it in, keeping it in a cage at first, careful not to overwhelm it... We eventually let it out of the cage 2 days later, but kept it in our main room, closing the doors. We booked in a vet appointment for the Thursday coming, since that was the earliest they could do it. It was Monday at the time. We fed it well, but it was still so skinny... Every time you pet it, you could feel the spine and ribs. We kept feeding it, not too much, but enough, and it was so happy... It loved being picked up and it'd rest it's head under your chin, and cuddle close to you. It was finally happy, and had a family again, as we assumed it was dumped by somebody. Then, on the Thursday morning of the vet appointment, my parents woke up (I'm only 12, if you're wondering), and there it was, in it's cage in our living room, dead. I was still asleep at the time, and it was fine when my brother got up at 1AM, but it went to the bathroom in the cage, and it was dead. It was the day of the appointment, we were going to get it checked for problems and fixed, find out it's gender, and find a name all that day... but we never could. We don't even have it's name, or gender, and we'll never know. It's buried outside our house now... It's only been 3 days since it died, and I can't stop crying. I didn't even know it for long, but it instantly became part of the family.. and I miss it.. It hurts... And I don't know how to make myself feel better... If we had've booked the vet sooner, it would still be with us... But we didn't... R.I.P Ginger Kitten 16/03/18 - 22/03/18 I miss you, you little fluffball of happiness

A couple of days ago, my 19-year-old Charlotte was put to sleep after her kidney failure became too much for her :( She's been my best friend all those years and we've always been inseparable. The days seem so lonely without her, and my heart is aching.
