JF: We experienced the same abiding sense of gratitude and loss with our dog Emily and two of our cats, Twitch and Flannery. Condolences.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ve now had three kitties I’ve lost after 16 years. I’ll never be “over” them and each of them changed my life. I’ve never gone more than 6 weeks without one of these furry fiends in my life. Each one has taught me something new. Please adopt a new furry. It may seem too soon but you’ll never regret it.

This is really beautiful... authentic and poignant. My Chester passed five years ago and I miss him so much. Over his 18 years with me he was my stalwart little buddy and my heart of hearts. I still look for him and I know there will never be another like him.

Losing a pet is truly a unique kind of heartache. It does fade over the years and as you mention, that hurts in its own strange way. I wish you peace in the coming months. Grief is not linear and that’s okay. 💜

I am so very sorry for your loss. There’s truly nothing quite like the love between a human and their pet. It’s a unique pain when they pass. May your memories always be of the joy and not the sadness.
