It's so hard to say goodbye - Page 2

I'm so sorry. I just lost my beloved oldest kitty Tatjana a week ago to cancer, it was so incredibly hard. You were strong to be there with her to the end, so she wasn't alone, she was with the people she loved most. I still look around and expect my kitty to jump up on the couch beside me.

I'm sorry.

So much sorrow and tears … and no peace …
I'm missing her like crazy, can't find any joy in going for walks anymore and every place we go reminds me of our time together.
Still tortured with doubt if we made the right decision especially if it was at the right time, maybe we could have a day or even few more days together… so many "should haves" …
I keep remembering how happy she was that morning when we woke up, her tail wagging … and we put her to sleep few hours later. It feels like we betrayed her.
I miss her so much, her warm and fuzzy fur, her loving eyes, her quiet presence (during last few years... she was so sparkly and spirited when younger).

I wanted to share few pictures of my beloved friend with you. She will always have a special place in my heart.

My favourite pic of her... the best (and last) summer we had
Lovely lady
Hot summer day
Friends from the start (well, to tell you the truth, they became friends when we started solids with Ema)
Friends 2
Sleeping arrangements
What?!? Another baby?

I love you Gingi (we named her Ginger after Ginger Rogers but kept calling her Ging, Gingi, Gingerosa, … )

I'm so sorry. Your post brought me to tears (again). Thank you for the support you gave me on my thread...I'm sending it back to you along with prayers for your beautiful puppy. Peaceful travels, Ginger.

The pictures of her make it even more real....thank you for sharing. Your Ginger is absolutely gorgeous! I'm sorry you are going through this. I dread the day that I will be in the same position and I know my heart will be broken as well. Take care

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm going through this with my 13 yo dog and it is tearing me up. It sounds like Ginger had a very loving home. Hugs to you.

What a sweet face! Thanks for sharing her with us. I agree with farmlife - she looks so happy, you gave her a good life. But a dog's life is so short.
I hope you can work through your grief to a place of peace. Don't close off your feelings - they are real, they are true and valid and they honor the place she held in your life. It will take time, since she was such a big part of your life. You will never forget her, and she will always be with you. We understand, and we are here for you as you grieve.

Now I am remembering all my pets, especially the dog I grew up with, Tippy, who died when I was in 8th grade, and I still can feel how soft her ears were.... *sniff*
