My Cat or Dog Just Died - How to Handle Passing of a Pet Right Now

[@marybethr6798]

the biggest difference when losing a pet vs human is this: when you lose a human, you go to your pet for comfort. When your pet dies, your source of comfort dies, too. Lost my dog last week and it's incredibly sad and heart wrenching. Watching your videos gives me hope he's still with me. Thank you.

[@claudettemalespina60]

Im so sorry for your loss.💙

[@deelight662]

Praying going out to you.

[@kellybobchin8112]

So incredibly true!! My biggest source of love and comfort was my sweet Ollie....now I’m just left with the pain of losing him and I can’t go to him for the comfort and love he ALWAYS gave me. It’s all so empty without him....

[@daniellecrook5582]

This is so true. I’m glad I’m not alone in these feelings. I’ve just lost my closest friend, my fur child, constant companion, biggest source of joy, the only “person” that I’ve seen day in and day out for years. My cat was more affectionate and loving to me than anyone I’ve ever known. It’s a huge void.

[@zzcreedxx]

I’ve been to funerals to people who I genuinely loved dearly and was definitely sad when they passed. But today, was a pain I never knew existed. This was my first pet who was solely mine. I really feel like a part of me died with him. He made up a piece of my identity that I didn’t even know he was responsible for. And the worst part was, since it was so sudden, I didn’t truly realize how much I loved him and how profound he was in my life. I’m a grown 25 year old man and have been sobbing on and off like a baby. I was the luckiest guy in the world to have been blessed to such an amazing cat. I hope in his last moments he felt my love, gratitude and pride for him. I love you, Lenny

[@dls300]

You found out about true love.

[@hiddendragon415]

@@dls300 I was numb when my dad died unexpectedly, I thought that was hard. My girl cat of 17 had to be put down a few days ago and the loss of a best friend and child who was my constant companion at home is immense. Up until her last week when she was ill and reclusive she was there in the morning, greeted me when I came home , shared sunny afternoons in the garden, watched You Tube together, told me when it was time to go to bed. Caring for her even in her more difficult senior years was my world. I do think the loss of a pet can be much deeper than that of a human.

[@8656737s]

I'm feeling the same things. Just lost my Pretty kitty 2 days ago. My heart is so broken. She passed peacefully with my husband and I telling her how much we loved her. I hope she hurt us. So sorry for your loss 💔

I feel the exact same way and I'm a 58 yr old woman! I lost my little Yorkie four days ago.

[@Tara1978Tara]

And Lenny loves you as well. He always has and he always will. He’s not really gone - he’s just a little different from how you knew him in his physical body. He’s still with you - think about the good times together and how deeply you were connected and you’ll be able to still feel that connection and realize it was never broken - the pain you feel is grief for the relationship you used to have and that’s ok. Just remember Lenny still loves you and your souls are still connected. You’ll see him again some day and it will be like you never parted because you never really did.

This comment section is proof of all the kind, living souls in this world but it's not the only place to find proof of life's beauty. Refocus your energy towards helping others and participate in random acts of kindness because the good feeling derived from helping someone else will remind you of the happiness your pet brought to your lives. Please don't support puppy mills and backyard breeders, they will exist as long as there is a demand for what they are offering. Rescue from a shelter or a pound and give them the love and care you have because without us, they die alone in cages, scared and wondering if they will ever be saved. Help your neighbors and offer to take their dogs for walks if they are unable to do so. Help them to take care of their fur babies or else their fur babies will end up in a shelter and they may be too old to understand why they were taken from their person. Pay attention to everyone around you because everyone is struggling and it's much easier to offer help than it is to ask for help. I have faith in all of you, you opened your hearts and shielded your fur babies from danger in the world so I have faith your kindness and compassion didn't end with the death of your beloved. Take a moment and consider all you have to offer and then do something about it. Thank you all for restoring my faith in mankind

I lost my babies three months and one yr ago . Both cool and wise kitties. They were about 20 yo and came to me at varying times. Once I had 8, another time 20, but no room . They began to die finally. I hid cats, saved cats, but had to take several to sanctuaries. and animal societies. I did what I could and wish I'd been wiser, wealthier and better able to protect them. I shall always miss them. I'm old and soon I too will be gone . I think of my babies everyday. I pray to see them soon. All the pets I had,dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, rodents.

My dog passed away yesterday. He had cancer. He fought so hard and tried so hard to stay alive, his last two days he didn't let himself sleep because he was scared he wouldn't wake up. The day of his death I was laying next to him and I looked at him and tears started to roll down my eye. He looked back at me with a tear in his eye. We both knew it was our goodbye. He passed away shortly afterwards. I will never forget that moment and the selfless love that he gave me in the twelve years I had him. No one has ever and probably never again will look at me with so much love.

I just put my sweet London girl to sleep yesterday, and I am immersed in sadness and loss. She had chronic Kidney failure and hadn't eaten in 10 days, and did not want her to progress to a worse state for her suffering, sadly it is irreversible. Eating was her absolute love language, so we knew that once she did not want a morsel of ANYTHING, she was ready. We spent the 2 weeks between her diagnosis full of love and experiences, and while I know she was ready, it was hard to accept because she was still walking and showing love and not looking horrible on the 'outside'. I knew internally she was in so much pain. The whole process was loving and smooth as it could be, but it happened so quickly and I am feeling all these emotions that it was too soon, or if she is upset that it happened how it did, I feel so much of a void without her here and I am grieving so much. I'm questioning it all over again and just wish we had more time, but at the rate that we were going, it would only prolong for so long and get worse :(

A bunch of weird things, i don't know, maybe because i am paying alot of attention. I received a book not anything i ordered after he left, The cover read 'Adopting puppies' but the inside was a different book, all about womens healing. It was odd because it had the same order number as the book i did order on a musical instrument so they just told me to keep it! Also at the end my little one would only eat steak and right after his passing my Dad 'accidentally' received a huge box of omaha steaks, since they sent it to wrong address they told him to keep it!

​@@chrisdaniel5004 thank you for mentioning the guilt you feel. I really feel that and don't like to share it because people can be too quick to tell you not to feel that way. It's just a part of what I really feel, part of me. It's a reminder not to be so selfish with others, human and not, because I really can be. So, I don't need to brush off the feeling, I think. I just feel impotent now and sorry for the times I was short-tempered or impatient or dismissive or self-absorbed instead of gracious, generous and kind. I've felt that way at other deaths and it's not a nice feeling, but I think it's as legitimate as the ones of gratitude, love and loss that I also feel.

Man, death is brutal. Had to put my cat down a few days ago and he was like my son. Miss him so much. Smelling the things he layed on and in just to experience his presence again. Think I'll see him in heaven again, which is comforting and knowing that he's being taken good care of up there.

[@mrfelix2510]

I see your post was 10 months ago but I just came across this video. One verse in the Bible that gives me hope is Psa 36:6 KJV ...O LORD, thou preservest man and beast. This word "preservest" actually translates to "to save, be saved, be delivered." So one can conclude from this passage that man is delivered so is the animal. See also Romans 8:20-23 Our pets, as well as our dead loved ones, are not in heaven now (or he'll for that matter). They wait in the grave for the resurrection just as people do. 1 Thess.4:13-16, Psalms 13:3 just to name a few. Neither our pets nor our deceased loved ones, are in heaven right now and I doubt that we will see them in heaven. But, when the earth is made new again (Rev 21:1) I believe at that time, God may call forth our greatly beloved pets and return them to us. 1Th 4:13 KJV But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

If your pet just passed, please know that the grief process takes however long it takes. Everyone is an individual. Please take care of yourself, and be kind to yourself. Don't confide in people that don't have pets; they can never understand the special connection that we have with our pets, and you will feel worse. I think it took me around 2.5 years for the intense sadness to lift for my spaniel girl. I still feel sad when I think of her passing, and know all my girls were an incredible gift. I know that they are all with God and there is no death. The Nuns in Catholic School said that animals have a mortal soul. Which means when they die, they die. That teaching did affect me adversely, and I know animals have souls and return to their Creator. All my dogs have come back to me to let me know they are alright. I pray that God will comfort your heart. 💔❤‍🩹❤

I held them in my arms when the time came telling them I love them constantly till they lost consciousness.

@@inorialouette thank you, it's really tough. The thing is, my worst fear has been for years that this would happen. I've for a long time thought I would lose my best friend and would intentionally stare at him and soak him in, making memories for when the terrible day comes. I tell him every day many many times how much I love him, and the story of how I found him in the pet shelter as a kitten, and he was sent to me from God. I would sneak in the room several times every day And lift the cover, and kiss his little foot and say I love you so much, and let him go back to sleeping. He was my greatest joy. I also had a premonition that my best friend would die about 10 years ago and even thought he really died 1 month before he did. So this is the second time I've been correct about this feeling I get. It feels like I've always known this would happen, and was always mindful to enjoy the precious moments I had with my sweet cat, and took 16 gigabytes of pictures and videos over the years so I could have something when it happens. Feels like another bad dream, but it's reality. I hope you are doing Ok too 🙏

This was really helpful. We had to unexpectedly put down our beloved black lab yesterday morning, after he got really sick the night before and was having trouble breathing. He was the sweetest, most friendly dog ever and he stole the hearts of every single human being he ever met. He would always get excited whenever asked if he wanted to go on a walk. And he always made sure we never forgot to give him a treat, sometimes he would even be sneaky and try to finesse a second treat, using his innocent puppy eyes to act like he hadn’t gotten his treat yet when in reality he had. He was smart like that and knew exactly how to get what he wanted. Though he could be sneaky, he was extremely well-behaved and he was always a good boy. Rest easy, JoJo 🐾🐾🐾

Last May (May 20) my cat Noelle died out a sudden, leaving 4 newborn kittens behind her. She was only 1,5 years old. I tried everything I could to keep the kittens alive (formula feeding, vets etc) but 3 out of 4 passed away the last week of May. I was devastated. The main thing that made me functional again was watching your videos. I found the strength and continued my life, survived the uni exams semester, stayed social and connected and felt like my cats are good up there. Our 1 little survivor (little Vinnie) stayed with us. Some days ago, he became 1 year old, a smart beautiful active cat full of love and energy! Today (May 11), almost one year after his mum left us, my mum called me and told me that they found him dead. My dad rushed him at two vets and they both told him that he was probably poisoned (ate sth). Here, I wanna add that my parents live in a village so they left him outside in the garden, cause he seemed much happier there compared to the home. I've been crying and can't wrap my head around it. I really feel like I just lost my best friend, my little baby that used to keep my awake to make him bottles of milk on 3am and then bottle fed him like a baby. The pain is deep but I know I'll somehow work on it. Also, my mum called me to tell me about his loss on 13:45 which is the exact SAME time I was born, on May 2001. I don't believe that it's just a coincidence. I think that he wants to tell me something. Also, when I went to my fam for Easter break, he was so snuggly, he would stay on my lap for hours petting him. However, the last day I was there (next day I'd return to my uni city), I wanted to say goodbye, and he NEVER let me touch him or hug him like he usually did. He also scratched me when I tried to touch him. It's like he never wanted to say goodbye because he knew it was our last time together. I'll take that as a promise we'll meet again. My baby, Vincent, mummy really misses you, my heart would be so relieved if I only knew you are good up there with your momma and siblings. I love you so much and wait to see your big green eyes again. Take care, I hope I'll be ok someday. Vinnie, 26.04.2021- 11.05.2022 ♡

I have been involved in working with Spirit for over 50 years and an incredible thing happened last week. My friend’s dog passed over who I had connected well with during his life. The morning after his passing I was cooking and all of a sudden I received a mental image of her dog, but along with that came an image of some keys. I thought it was strange that a dog would be connected with keys unless he had a toy like a key maybe. It wouldn’t go away so I knew I had to tell her as the message was so strong. She couldn’t believe it as at the same time I received those images my friend was going crazy at home looking for her garage keys! She eventually found them and broke down in tears because that one stressful thing, on top of the grief from losing her beloved dog, was just too much for her to cope with. I told her he was with her and had seen it happening. He obviously came to me so she could know. She said it helped her to know that so much and is talking to him in her mind. I love it when that happens.

When you have a pet, you have a friend through anything. Your other friends have restrictions, things to do, wants, needs. Your pet would always just... be there. My rabbit died last December. He was barely a year old, and I never even got to show him at fair (I'm in 4h). I went to my cat for help, who I've had for my entire life, nearly 12 years and 2022, Christmas night. He was killed by two dogs. I didn't know until the next morning. I was extremely happy 😊, ready to make breakfast when my dad brought me the news. The house was empty for the next few hours, so I just cried, and wailed, and screamed out, balling until my eyes were so dry i needed eye drops. The next days were rough. I kept expecting him to just walk through my door, jump on my bed, and rub his face against my leg. I desperate needed help, but I was on break, and none of my friends were responding. My entire family was completely heartbroken. He was a huge part in all of our lives, even my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, step brothers, and sister in law were starstruck and sad. It hit me most, though. He helped me through anything and everything, snuggled me when I was drawing, gave me inspiration, protected the home from mice, squirrels, birds, even other cats and sometimes small dogs. He would come home with minor scratches, a little fur missing and leaving his victim who decided to set paw on our property in much worse shape. These a gapping hole in my heart now that he's gone, but I feel like a fulfilled some sort if prophecy. He truely had nine lives. He was at a shelter when we got him, and he survived that. He stood half his head being hit by a closing garage door, dialating one of his eyes (which made him even more special to us), moved once, battled a stray siamese for weeks, coming home with teared fur and bloodyvl scratches, survived a run in with an owl, battled countless dogs, cats, birds and rodents his entire life, and he died doing what he always did. Protecting us.

I lost my childhood best friend Coco a chihuahua I had for almost 10 years, almost 3 months ago. The day she passed I came across your videos and they have really helped me and my family. My dog sent me a message 1 month after she passed. I was outside and a small clump of her hair flew towards my feet. I was shocked at first but then I realized she is sending me this to show me she is always with me! I tried to move on faster and almost skip the grieving process and a month an a half later I became severely anxious and depressed. All the emotions hit me again at once and I felt sick. I took the time to sit there and deal with grief and process all my emotions. I am so glad to finally be out of that dark moment. I can now honor my pet and move on. Although I will always miss her, I know she will always be a part of me wherever I go . Thank you for sharing your gift with us and helping us move forward! 💖

I wish I had someone tell me this when I was experiencing these emotions. I cried for 2 weeks straight and then I had a bad mental breakdown because I was trying to speed up the grieving process. What helped me process my pets loss was pouring my heart out and writing them a letter. I wrote about all our best moments, and even the crazy ones but I made sure to end it on a positive loving note. I wrote this letter a few days after she passed, then about 2 months later when I felt I was ready I burned it outside. There’s many different ways you can do this, I found it online along with a saying as I burned the letter. I did this to be able to move on with my life as I was becoming depressed and severely anxious. I’m still working through some of those feelings but everyday it’s gets better. This doesn’t mean I am forgetting my pet but I did it as closing a chapter in my life. I have my pets ashes and her favorite toy and the sweater she passed in on top of her urn. I will always miss her but I know after watching Danielle’s videos that she chose to go and although it’s difficult to process I know she will always be with me.

My cat has large cell lymphoma and is going downhill very quickly. She was just diagnosed last week. I've had pets my whole life and I know it never gets easier to handle the death of a pet. I wanted to share what I've learned in my 60 years. I used to think the phrase "listen to your heart" was just a cliche. It sounded good, but what the heck does that even mean? It took a VERY long time to realize what it means. Here's my interpretation: (I would love to hear others' opinions on this.) Every second of our lives, we have a current of energy that runs through us that connects our body and soul. If you really tune into it, and I mean REALLY tune in by being quiet, silencing the phone, meditating, etc., there's always some emotion there, most often there's several. The flow never stops, even though we may say we feel "neutral." It's like a body of water with currents, ripples and waves. When we lose a pet, it increases the energy in our mind...making waves...and those waves can makes for some rough seas. We want to "do something" to settle those waves as much as possible. We're thrashing around trying to make the water calm, but we know how that will work out. The best way to deal with grief is to sit with it in silence and notice your body and mind. See how long you can do it, even for 15 seconds, 30, 60, 5 minutes, etc. Then, thank it. Say, "Thank you for allowing me to experience these feelings. They show that I got to enjoy a deep connection with another soul. This stops the thrashing around and allows the waves to settle. To some degree they will always be there for the rest of your life for the simple reason that your love will never die. Think about it....if you never grieved over the loss of someone or a pet, it means you have never loved, so grief is a gift. So again, thank it and smile. It's hard to be sad and smile at the same time. Back to the energy level...As you read about coping strategies (or watch videos), imagine doing them. If you're quiet enough, one or more of them will instantly make you feel better by just imagining it, even the TINIEST bit. (Some may make you feel worse, too.) For me, the following strategies quiet my mind to come degree, by just imagining them: #1. Thanking my grief when it comes up, as described above. #2. Seeking out ways to serve others. Giving or helping another person or animal without expecting anything in return. #3. Planting bulbs over my cat's grave so that bright, cheery flowers come up every year to remind me of her. #4. Drawing or painting my cat in complete silence and not judging whether it's good or bad. Or, draw something that represents your animal or the feelings you felt and feel about him/her. It's called Art Therapy. #5. Telling others about your pet in online forums and GIVING support to others. (I get much more out of helping others than getting it from others.) There are limitless options. These are just the ones that seem to calm the seas. I hope this helps someone.

This is very wise stuff from you Jeff.....grief shows up as hard draining and we don't want it in its invasive non stop arrival.....we I ow it's part of life but it's just imposing overwhelming at times and draining...exhausting. So your recognitions of how we need to acknowledge it ...run with it....accommodate it in more aware and respectful ways not just for our own welfare but for the sacredness of what grief is....its ENERGY as you say....its more intricate aspects how we are intimately apart of the entire situation as is our pets no doubt .... So I will do what you advise....I've learned over life that it is best to find a safe place and just be quiet and open to life's rhythms at the time... and it is listening to your heart mind and soul to life ..to energy ....and more maybe..... It is a great honour to love others deeply and animals included as we are all " creatures" with great levels of depths in ourselves that can only be found and appreciated if we listen and find ways to see and be access each others unique places through respectful sharings that we can try to understand as the higher levels and actualizations of greater levels of life's learning curves etc if we just find the time and space to allow these other intricate parts of existance to show up when we make respectful space for them to come to us in our more self awareness times when understanding and life connect and bring us new understandings and the innate sense.that we are connecting to know and grow into healthier ways of understanding ourselves and life generally.... So I will acknowledge in far more tangible ways my grief periods.... as they are gifts.... to experience so many emotions and to learn...as we arent just here to block situations and just blindly move thru life with no reflection to do ...personal growth.... So Bless your posting....I will take more notice and sit more in the quiet ....respect more and observe more for we cant expect to escape emotional pain when we love and loss others and our pets....your post says we need to not find grief just a resentment as it hurts ...we need to befriend it more ...go with it...... let it be apart of our higher self and its journey safely... Thankyou....

Our cat baba dying suddenly is the saddest and most heart-wrenching experience we've ever had. We are glad we are in a safe place to share this and we send our love to everyone going through the same 💗

Our dog just died hours ago... I hate the fact that my mom has just been waiting for it to happen despite the times I told the family to do something to save our dog's health. I wish we could've given her a better life and fed her well. But my mom can't afford the effort to do something atleast, since we've also been struggling financially. I've felt like we've tortured her before she finally died, and I hate my family so much for it including me. I wish I could've done something. I could only reminisce the memories of her being all energetic when we're coming back home. I miss her. 😔

I’m so sorry for your loss. I know what it’s like to feel poor and powerless.
