I talked about my Munchkin back in October. He was really sick than but managed to hang on for another 7 months. He passed away today. I will miss him.

He'll always be with me here as my profile picture.

So sorry for your loss. Losing a furbaby always hurts. 💝

Thank you. It's hard but my ex-wife and I have known for close to a year that his time was short. It was time.

Aww. So sorry about that. I still grieve for the dog I lost 24 years ago. I went to the beach the other day for a walk and my sister came with me and I was reminiscing about how I would let my dog off her leash and she would run like a maniac on the sand bars all happy and free. Her name was Bear and she was a German Shepherd/Collie mix. Beautiful dog. Every time I go to the beach I like to think she's there, having a great time.

I know you'll feel this one for quite some time. Pets always have a special place in our hearts and minds. So sorry.

I'm very sad today. My dog Munchkin's older brother Teacup passed away a few hours ago. He was 14 and his little body just gave out on him. I will miss him always.

So sorry. Maybe he missed his brother.

[mylungswereaching]

He probably did. He had health problems and he was 14 years old which was old for a Yorkie. I'm sure he was lonely the two last months. His brother was really sick for the last few months of his life. Teacup could sense that Munchkin was sick and pulled away. We knew Teacup had health issues but he was the same old good boy, just a little slower. But then he was picking at his food for a day or two and not eating much. When my ex got home from work on Saturday he was too weak to bark and could barely stand up so she brought him to the vet. They told her that two of his organs were failing and he was in a lot of pain. It was so quick. Three days before he was outside rolling in the grass. When she saw him lying there and moaning in pain she knew it was time.

I'm not sure which was better. We had time to prepare with Munchkin. He was sick for months and we knew for weeks it was getting near the end. He was just getting weaker and weaker but never seemed to be in pain. Teacup was much more sudden. He looks a little down for a few days, which he's done every once in a while since he was a puppy. And then suddenly he was gone. I'll miss the little guy.

When I was sleeping last night, I could have sworn I felt my cat jumping up on the bed and settling down next to me. It felt so real. It woke me up.

That happened last year, too. I was sleeping and I felt the cat, and heard him purring, loudly, and I was petting his head. It was very intense.

This happened again last night. Felt the cat jump on my bed, he came up to me and I was petting him and I could hear and feel him purring.

One could say I was just wishing for it, but I think of him a lot and it seems to only happen once a year that it's that real and intense.

^^^^ It happened again last night, (well this morning) almost a year to the day. I think of him and nothing that intense happens, then one night it just feels like he jumps on the bed and I'm petting him.

Yes, it could be all wishful thinking that our pets and loved ones are still "somewhere", most of us have those beliefs, and there are things I was thinking about yesterday and things I was viewing that could have triggered it, but, I think of it a LOT and it only seems to happen at these certain times. I don't remember what time of year it was the first time, the second time was in September as my post shows, but last year it was around this time.

It's just so sad to think of a consciousness being alive and having all this life and activity, and then to just be gone. I'd like to think it goes on in some form in some point in the universe.

It happened again early this morning. I checked the calendar, and sure enough today is the anniversary of when I first got my cat.


I'd like to think he was stopping by to say hi.
