I unexpectedly lost my 2 year old baby boxer last night, my heart is shattered. Coming home to an empty house. The memories, our daily bond. People don't understand its not just a pet it's another loyal, loving, most sincere little piece of heaven you lost. 💔

I lost my six year old female pup in June 1, 2021. Her name is Huan Huan. My heart was completely shatter. Even now, over nine months on, i still miss her so..much because she was the only thing I love most with my entire heart. Not even my parents nor my brother can compare to her. Every morning, when a wake up, the very first thing that comes into my mind is my Huan Huan goes. In the aftermath of her passing, i dared not stay in my house because trails she left behind, especially her furs, would bring back memories of the good old days when we were together.

The passing of my grandma hit me a lot, but in all my 37 years of life so far, the passing of Huan Huan my puppy hit me the hardest with the most unimaginable traumatising severity. I kept cry whenever I was alone in the first few months. I just couldn't cope with the reality that she was forever gone. I would never be able to put her in my arms and sleep with her laying at my side. The sole wish is that she is now living in a better world and that one day we could be reunited. The reason I share my grief with you is for you to keep in mind that you are not alone grieving our pet loss.

I'm sorry for your loss I had to do the same thing last week and my dog was 17 years old my heart is broken in a million pieces

It hasn't even been a full 24 hrs. Praying time will heal. The pain and grief is horrible. My eyes are almost swollen shut. I was with my 13 yr old Silky Terrier, Sparky, 24/7. He was my routine. EVERY morning I came down stairs he smiled, wagged his tail and tapped danced for me (us) because he was so excited to see us. He was my responsibility all day, every day. He truly brought us so much joy. I've always heard that losing a pet can be worse than losing a family member, with this loss I have to agree. And now I worry about Max (Silky Terrier) too, he will be lost and confused. He's going from room to room and whining looking for his buddy. Just now when I picked him up, he licked my tears and he never tries to lick my face. He knows. Oh this is going to so hard for all of us. 💔😔

Lisa Burke, We have two grown married children and losing our dog of 9 years hurt us just as much. We have another dog and I raised them together. My surviving dog is so hurt and misses his companion so badly that we are all heart broken and nothing seems the same anymore to us seeing both dogs running and playing together. I always said that the more people I meet........ The more I love my dogs. The same goes for cats. You pet's energy will always be with you. Look around carefully and get another pet and you will find your new pet doing the same things that your deceased pet will be doing because they will combine their energy into each other. Believe me. It's what your deceased pet will want you to do.

My Russian blue cat has passed away today.😢 I am sad. My husband doesn’t like me to cry but I do when he is not home 😢. I cannot see comment in my time. December 1, 2023 I lost my 17 years of friend.😢

My son and I have six dogs between us. One of his dogs is about 15 yrs old and we were trying to prepare for her passing. But unexpectedly, his 7 yr old pup died a terrible death last Monday. We are devastated. I found that, at least for me, that the loss of a pet is worse than losing grandparents, parents or a sibling. My first dog was murdered over 50 yrs ago and I will always grieve his loss. Sending love and positive thoughts to all who have lost a pet, who are aware animals are sentient beings and to be loved and valued. RIP Buddha.

I have had a tragic sudden loss and I literally cried and felt guilt for five years. I finally had to ease up on myself when I learned that grieving like this delays their soul from moving on in the afterlife. I tend to believe that bc they love us so much and they would try to soothe our hearts. I had to let my pup move forward. Then, last week I lost my soul dog. He was always at my feet for 12 years. I don't recognize this world without my furchild. There is no forgetting them. EVER.

Pet grief is real. I’m sorry anyone is going through pain. God is with you❤️

I am sorry about everybody who lost their loved pets and paw-children. We lost our beloved dog, Fluffy, yesteday afternoon.

It's Wednesday December 22, 2021. At 11:15Pm on Tuesday December 14 my beloved cat, C K Dexter Haven died in my arms. I'm 72 and C K was my life. He was 11years old and, I thought, healthy, with soft silky fur that smelled clean and pure. C K had a seizure and I did everything I could think of to save him, even putting his head in my mouth to blow life into him. And I saw, God I saw the spark of life leave his eyes. I howled, screamed and fell apart. I have never felt such grief and sorrow and have been crying, weeping for long periods for over a week now. I can't believe C K is gone. He will never jump on my bed and my chest, kneading me while slowly blinking his big beautiful eyes. I feel hollow, broken and can't sleep, don't want to sleep. My little lion would let me put my head on his belly while I scratched him behind his ears or sleep curled up on my feet, and if I moved he would know it. There are no words to describe how much I miss him. I have made arrangements to have C K cremated and have told my daughter that when I die to mix his ashes with mine. I love you C K. You will forever be part of my being, my soul. If you have read this comment I Thank You from my heart.

I just lost my cat of 17 years. I keep on crying. It's very hard. She is like losing my baby. She was my baby, and I will always love her. But there is some comforting knowing I gave her a home and she lived very well. I denied her nothing. She really lived a very good life. I think she died of natural old age. Her system just shut down, and she did not suffer. She loved to be held the whole time. As long as I held her she fell asleep and was very comfortable, so I let her die naturally. Her breathing was calm. Still, I had her for 17 loving years and she is now gone.

We had to put our cat to sleep today. We've had him for 15 years and I can't imagine this house without him. This is, without exaggeration, the worst experience I've ever had.

I lost my 16-year-old dog on this Monday. I knew the day would come as she had a bad heart. I sure wasn't expecting this week. This hit me hard as she was the last of my parent's dog (My mom died 7 years ago. My dad died 5 years ago). I thought it was just the 102 temps. I gave her a cool down. I waited to see if that would work to cool her body down. She wasn't herself. She was breathing fast, and I could feel her a rattle in her ribcage area. My gut said, "Call the ER vet." I quickly did and I had my friends rush me to the vet with my dog. The vet gave me the bad news and he said the meds wasn't working anymore. I didn't want her to suffer and we both agreed. It's still hard as I found out on fb memories today was the day my parents and I rescued her 13 years ago.

Thank you for validating that pets are family members and the loss of them should not be minimized. I, like others here have stated, recently lost a pet, and my heart goes out to all of them; it's a devastating loss to experience. I also believe that the Lord will allow for us to be reunited with our pets. Thank you for this video.

Both of my animals are in heaven 🌈🌈 my dog is forever 11 & my cat is forever 15. I just lost my cat on 04/26/24, I had to put her to sleep. The pain medication made her go into renal failure. This is the first time in my life I have never had a pet 😢 it’s the most boring thing ever! They prepared me for what’s next to come. I am expecting a baby, so maybe I can get another animal for the next chapter of my life. ❤

It is others who make us feel is not as important as losing a human. People who lose pets are forced to 'hold it together' by outsiders. I'm still grieving 18 months after losing my baby girl. Can I talk about that? No. She was 'just a dog'. Death is death and whomever it is in your life who dies is ALWAYS important be it a human or a pet.

These videos help, thanks. Some of us find it tough ask for help out loud so listening to videos like these help alot. Been 20 hrs since we had a tragic accident to Beau, it's so damn hard. Thank you.

I must say after losing my beautiful 11 yr. old Golden Retriever all of a sudden, if someone says it is just a dog to me, they will get punched in the throat!

3 days ago my dog, Chico, was rushed to the vets after collapsing. The following day the vet informed me he had severe liver and kidney failure and was already turning yellow with jaundice. Their professional opinion was within the next 24 hours he would begin to feel a constant pain throughout his stomach, and begin a steady deterioration. She allowed me a final 30 mins with my boy in private (which i could genuinely never thank her enough for) but after that he was sent to his slumber with his chin in my hands and our heads pressed together. It is the single hardest thing i have ever experienced and still cant figure out which pain is causing the biggest hole, the aching of knowing he's gone, or the crushing guilt. My heart truly goes out to anyone going through the loss of a non human family member.

Oh, dear, that’s awful. I lost the sweetest kitty ever five months ago to a dog attack that happened right on my front porch with me there. The dog was roaming loose, ran up on my front porch, grabbed my cat, and mauled her. I screamed at the dog and it slung my cat into a porch column. The dog ran off and I thought things were okay, but the damage was too great and my cat died moments later. It was a violent, horrifying experience, but what you had to go through sounds worse. How helpless you must’ve felt! I think about what happened to my cat every single day, and I’m sure it’s the same for you. I miss my kitty so very much, and sites like this one are the only places I find comfort, since you can’t talk about these things to most people. They don’t understand. God bless you and little Pinky, and may He bring you peace and healing.

I lost my baby just a week ago, it was a much too sudden accident, and it's so awful because in a time like this, she would be the one to help comfort me. I've had multiple cats before, but all of them had a gradual build up to their time, I was able to prepare myself and say goodbye when they had to go. I adopted my baby about 10 years ago, her and her sister, whom I am very fortunate to still have around. She was the first pet that I had that I could say was "mine", as she had grown attached to me. She was very loving to everyone in the house, but she was mine most of all, she would follow me around more often than not, almost like a dog might. I taught her most of the ways she interacted with people. I grew up with her, and she grew up with me, and we learned one another as time went on. She would always hop up onto a chair or a desk and look up at me, wanting me to pick her up and hold her, and she would always bump noses, those were the signs of affection that I had essentially taught her as we grew up. I wish I could hold her again. She meant so much to me, and I was expecting several more years with her, it's unfair that she was taken so soon.

I am devastated, never thought this would happen

i lost my little friend yesterday, 11 year old jack russell terrier mix. i’ve lost other dogs, and a sibling, so i know grief way too well. but the issue i, having trouble with, is that Oreo my little boy was with me through all the previous traumatic experiences.. he was the one licking my face when i had to cry, he was worried for me. he was always there. he always made sure to be by my side on the darkest days. he was there for me. now without him, i feel there’s not a soul on earth who cares as much as he did, because he was there.

My baby boy left me 2 months ago. He’s all I have got. I miss him sooo much. I cry all the time. My mind is going crazy. My heart doesn’t feel good. I feel I’m dead.

I had to put my minpin down on Tuesday. I know it was the right thing to do for him, he was in pain after 17 wonderful years together. I kept saying "I am sorry" as I held him close to me.I feel guilty and the pain is unbearable.

I work in veterinary medicine, and I have for 10 years. I lost my soulmate, or my heart dog as some people say, on Sunday. I thought my experience in the veterinary world would make this even an ounce easier, but it absolutely has not. Atlas "Peter" Franklin has a hundred or more nick names. I adopted him as a senior dachshund (he was at least 10 years old) and he lived to be 14 years old. I feel guilty that I couldn't save him. I've taken care of dachshunds at work who were 16, 17, even 18 years old, so I feel guilty that he only lived to be 14. I have 3 other dogs at home that I'm trying to care for. I have a 12-year-old dog who has cancer on her heart that has spread to her lungs. She will be joining my Petey baby on the other side soon. How do I cope with this? I took time off from work. I spend 20+ hours a day crying. My face burns. I have a headache all the time. My eyes are swollen. I'm not sure how to get through this.

I just lost my kind, beautiful, best friend and kitty son of 16 years old . I'm so devastated and so heartbroken.

I’m here because I had to put my 14 year old pug to sleep 4 days ago. It hurts a great deal and it’s traumatizing for me.

I lost my sweet boy Toby 8 days ago and literally feel like death. I cry everyday, and the fatigue is overwhelming. I am looking for a support group, but can't find one

Same here. It's been 8 weeks now, and I realise I need help to cope with this.

I just put my dog to sleep last night. He just turned 15. I loved that dog so much, but to keep him around would be cruel since he was obviously suffering.

I am broken and shattered.

My little sancho is gone at 9 months smashed by a car. The emptyness that followed is hard to describe such as the pain. My house has never been so empty As he left I realized how much he filled my life with love. .my Sancho was another level puppy. I'm sorry Sancho for the long days u spent in the garden waiting for daddy. I loved u so much and I had plans for us2. I should so much have fixed this hole in the fence really. Sancho you Ve been an angel to me

I lost my cat Ginger over 14 years ago, and I still miss her everyday. Not a day goes by that I do not think of her. That cat LOVED me more than I deserved. The moment when we were parted haunts me and I wish I could go back and hold her in my arms again. My only comfort is that I will meet her again when I die.

Pet loss is equally valid regardless of the animal species. a cat, a horse or an goldfish, they are all loved just as mutch.

I lost Little Boots a week ago. He was my son, and there's no getting around that. Ive had him since he was two days old, and I bottle fed him morning, noon, and night. He was a sheep, and he never stopped following me around like he did when he was a little lamb. The day he died, I wasn't there. I was working. I felt my side warm up the way it did when he leaned against me. There is no convincing me that he doesn't exist somewhere outside his body energetically after that. I know what I felt. Little coincidences keep popping up that remind me he is with me in some way. We buried him beneath his favorite tree, with sweets and tobacco. Both things he wasn't supposed to eat as a sheep, but he got anyway because he stole them from us. I have his toys that still have his smell, and bags of wool to hold. The sunshine feels like when he would try to snuggle. He was, and still is, my world. Never in my life have I believed myself worthy of love before him, but something in his eyes told me that I was wrong about myself. He has moved me to be compassionate, to be kinder, to be more present with the people around me. In his death he is showing me there are people who care for me. Those who brush his death off are quickly being removed from my life, as i won't tolerate their insensitivity anymore. I want to be surrounded by those who love like him. Who steal my snacks, but are there on the days I'm crying to support me through hard times. And when I go, I will have many friends because of him, and because we walked beside one another. If I never have another pet, my whole life, and all the pain that has come with it, has been worth it just because I got to see him smile.

Its been six days since I had to put my cat to sleep. This has been a grief stricken week for ne. I cant stop crying & thinking about my boy Lucky. He was so sweet & beautiful. I have lost many close family over the years & him being a cat does not minimize the pain. Im just as heartbroken. God bless you Lucky. 🙏🏼

My chico, 13 years old passed yesterday, he was and is every thing to me, my heart is broken 💔 I can't stop crying, can't eat or sleep. I, want my chico back , I loved him with all my heart.

I lost my best friend and baby on 7/20/2021, I am so lonely without her and cannot seem to fill the hole. I am retired now snd my husband (indifferent to pets) does not want any pets so we can travel. I am also concerned I am now too old to get a baby as I would not want to die and leave it. Still heartbroken and lonely.

My cat has been missing for 8 days now and I'm starting to doubt if I will see her again. It's having a big effect on me. I was a caregiver for my sick mum for over ten years and looking after her as her suffering got worse, especially in the last six months until she passed, has already left me severely depressed and with PTSD. My cat was just about stopping me going under, and without her I now have no regular contact with any living thing.

Two days ago I lost my little mama cat. Seven years ago she showed up in our backyard as a small kitten and she never left. We made her a bed in the garage and she lived there but was never willing to come in the house. Over time she trusted us and would always come running when we went out into the yard. Sadly another feral cat got into the garage and fought her giving her serious wounds. We had hope she would recover and the vet gave us hope but it was not to be. I miss her so much and the pain of guilt and grief are almost to much to bare.

I lost my Petey yesterday. He was 11 years old and I am so devastated. I will miss my furry son so much. I needed to hear this. 💔💔😭😭

Thank you AIHCP for making this video, it's one of the most helpful that I've come across. I lost my 2 year old rough collie, Jupiter2, last week, he backed out of his leash and collar while out on his nightly walk and ultimately was struck and killed on 71. I couldn't find him anywhere, I was sure someone had picked him up and that it was only a matter of time till I had my boy back! It was an ODOT driver from the Medina OH post that found him on the road and this man had the grace to stop and pull my boy from the road... he saw one of the flyers made for Jupiter and called me last Saturday morning, I totally lost it...But maybe I'm one of the lucky pet dads because at least I have closure. I wish I had never taken him out that night! He was my buddy, my pal, we traveled everywhere together! He was a lot of fun and I miss him so much

No idea where to go for this type of thing but I l just lost my 15 year old tuxedo cat overnight very suddenly. He was my first pet and I'm almost 40 now. Having a hard time dealing with it because it happened literally overnight. He had internal bleeding and I had to put him down within 8 hours of him screaming in pain. I was NOT READY for this. I was pretty much emotionally dependent on him and now he's gone and I'm just lost. I like the George Carlin quote by the way.

I lost my sweet dog of 16 years over the weekend. You have to allow yourself to grieve over your cat, there is no time line for how long it will take. The first few days will be the hardest, but try not to focus on the loss when your mind wants to go there, focus on everything you gained by having him in your life for so long. The grief will come in waves, but the joy and unconditional love they brought is worth it. ❤️

I am sorry to hear that. It is always hard to lose a beloved pet, and even harder when it is a sudden loss. AIHCP is a training organization, not a treatment organization. So we do not take patients. What I recommend is looking for grief counselors in your area. You might not find support groups because pet loss often falls into the category of disenfranchised grief, grief that others do not recognize as grief. However you can still find grief counselors who can help. You can also check our member's directory, link below, and filter by grief counselor or pet loss grief support specialists. aihcp.net/home/certified-members-directory1/

@@AIHCP Thank you, thank you very very much! I live in a foreign country, i was sent here from the US company based in NYC 20 years+ ago. Something on me was telling me to find a pet (I don't know why) just out of the blues. I started to look for pets related websites and I found one offering 2 female German Shepherd's, I just called my fiance and told her, hey I'm going to go get a pet, she ask me why? I said cause I have to. When we got there the people brought down two female German Shepherd pups, they ask me which you're taking? Immediately I said both! Since that day both RINA and ZIVA have been on my life, now that RINA has gone to a better place I'm worried about ZIVA and 4 other dogs we have. The two shepherd's always always were special to me. The sudden departure caught me out of guard. In this country the pet care "industry" is horrible, veterinarians are cold, careless, no living creature deserves soulless treatment! We called many many just to take RINA out for good to stop her misery, pain, sadness etc. NO ONE was available even do we had a prepaid supposedly 24/7 response. We had to call the friend of a friend and so on until someone was available to come over but until next day, due to the pain and suffering I beg to come over immediately, they did so at 11:30 pm Saturday September 11, RINA was euthanized and went to the rainbow at 11:55 pm that day. Since we have the other 5 doggies I will NOT let anyone suffer like RINA did. My promise to her is to create a non profit organization to make sure nobody has to go through the suffering of our beloved RINA. Mark my words! I will start on a project to do that! I been working worldwide whit government's, 1st world countries were their people is much much humane. Here, even if they see a human suffering they just walk around. I have the knowledge, contacts, and some resources to start the project. Everyone I have found none of them offer the so called 24/7. Hypocrisy, values and greed is all they have. No emotions whatsoever! Pure evil greed, profit and nothing out of heart. Once again thank you thank you. Your response means a lot to me. You're the only one that have responded to my comments. The locals ad right now. Nothing, that can give you and idea how bad animals have to deal with. If you think you can send me a response once in a while I will be more than happy to tell you how the project is coming along. Best regards from Bogota Colombia South America. A country were corruption is around, yes, 24/7.

Guilt is natural to feel. It can be part of grief but also remember it can also be toxic. AFTER talking about it to others and hearing it outloud , realize you loved your dog and it was the humane and best decision for him.

The Rainbow Bridge is a pagan custom that Christians don't recognize because we have Jesus and our grief is differently handled. You do not sound Christian or you would mention something other than general Spirituality. I have a Christian Pet Loss Group because our comfort comes from our relationship with The Lord.

This video is not meant for just Christians but all pet owners. The idea of the Rainbow bridge is just a symbol of an animal crossing to the next world. Animals while not sentient do have souls, and happiness in Heaven would include those we loved on Earth. Loving an animal and the illustration of finding comfort with them in the next life is far from pagan but human and any relationship with the Lord also includes those we loved. Thoughts to consider

Rainbows are not pagan. You do not speak for Christian belief and you do not speak for God, you speak only for yourself.

My dog (8.5 y.o. Staffordshire Bull Terrier/pitbull) and literal BEST friend in this world, Abby, was euthanized Oct 19, 2022 after battling a compounding list of serious ailments....dual torn CCL's, complete muscle atrophy (back end), paralysis, chronic shoulder injuries, total incontinence (I purchased washable doggy diapers for her), severe chronic dehydration (despite sub-q fluid injections 2-3x daily), kidney failure (from dehydration and long term daily use of prescribed NSAID pain med/Carprofin), sudden blindness in one eye (overnight) and, as if all that wasn't enough, osteasarcoma (bone cancer) in her lower spine. I did all that I could for her from January-October, in effort to heal her naturally, since I couldn't afford $10,000 for surgeries on her knees, which were the injuries that kicked off all other ailments throughout the year. She "tweaked" one knee in 2020 that would give her fits every 2-3 months thereafter and, in January 2022 she jumped too high for a ball that I bounced to her and let out a loud "YELP!" when she hit the ground, which was a very rare expression of pain for her. Both CCL's torn and that would start a very long year of compounding issues, with many ups and downs. Just when I thought her time had run out and I needed to put her to rest, she would perk up and act like herself for 3-4 weeks and restore my optimism for her recovery. Then she'd have a bad week, then perk up again for awhile. This cycle occured several times throughout the year, it was an emotional roller-coaster for me, to say the least. I didn't work much at all in 2022, because she needed round-the clock care, which was way more important to me, despite the resulting financial difficulties. I carried her 80-lb butt in and out, 7-8 times everyday, which included up and down steps, to go potty and get some fresh air, watch the birds and squirrels, etc. Every single time I took her out, I would have to manually express her bladder and occasionally her bowels as well, since her muscles weren't quite cooperating back there. I had a large stack of bar towels in her kennel to wipe her genitals each time out and I bathed her every single evening to keep her clean. I did laundry each morning to keep her diapers/towels clean and stocked. I administered her medications, as well as injecting sub-q fluids under her skin with a large syringe, 2-3 times per day for her chronic dehydration (even though she still drank plenty of water). I did physical therapy multiple times per day, as well as full body massage with liniment gel on her knees, hips and shoulders for extra pain relief. I tried "red light therapy" on her three times everyday, along with acupressure treatments. She had slept in bed with me EVERY single night since she was a baby, but she fell off my bed a few times (the cause of her chronic shoulder pain) and I didn't have the heart to make her sleep on the floor, away from me, so I piled up all my extra pillows, clothing, couch cushions around my bed and constructed a railing around my bed as well to keep her from falling. I built her a dog wheelchair, which she was never able to use, due to the pain in her shoulders. It was a very long and physically/mentally/emotionally taxing year, for the both of us, to say the least. Eight months later, I feel like I'm STILL recovering from all of that, along with the grief of her loss, though it continues to slowly improve. She had a good couple of months (June-July) where she was zipping around all over the place, barking at the squirrels, talking to me, etc. Then I started noticing a bulge in her lower spine that would make a crackling sound when I picked her up, which wound up being bone cancer. Once her right eye went blind in late September, she became even less coordinated and she became pretty demoralized and depressed, she fought her butt off for me ALL YEAR, but she just ran out of steam and I had to make that final call for her. In her vet's office, one minute she was happy being doted and loved on and being fed hershey kisses and the next minute the injection was given and she just collapsed in my arms. I've been through A LOT of things in my 45 years, but that's the hardest thing that I've ever gone through, by far. I'm STILL traumatized over the whole experience, to be honest. Looking back at her as I walked out the door, seeing her body laying there and having to leave without her was absolutely excruciating. I felt dead inside, and I still do, I still have a hole in my heart, after 8 months. I'm a 45 y.o. man, divorced and without kids or much of a social circle around me. She was pretty much IT for me and she helped me through some pretty bad bouts of depression over the years, dare I say she may have actually saved me life a time or two. She was my purpose and motivation to keep fighting and not succumb to me inner demons. She was my rock and I took her everywhere with me. My biggest regret to this day isn't that I didn't do enough for her, because I gave her EVERYTHING that I had, I tried everything I could dig up to heal her and it just didn't work. My biggest regret is that I only had enough money to get her put to rest, peacefully, and couldn't afford to get a private cremation and get her ashes back. To this day, I really wish I'd found a way to scrape up that extra $100 and have her remains with me. So, I would recommend to anyone who deals with the loss of their furry best friend and wish to have their ashes with you, but can't afford it......do whatever you have to do to get that extra bit of cash, sell something, donate plasma, whatever. I really do wish I had done that, or brought her body home with me to bury, because even though her remains were merely an empty vessel at that point, I do believe that she wouldn't feel QUITE so far away if I had them.

That.true..see.themagin
