My cat passed today, it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through so far. She was my world, my pretty girl & I’ll always miss her.

My cat passed today. He was 18 years old and without a doubt the hardest thing I've ever experienced in my entire 41 years of life.

I put down my best friend yesterday, it's been a wave of emotions. Going from extreme sadness, to numbness, to relief, over an over. He was sixteen, he fought for me over the last few weeks because he knew I wasn't ready. Yesterday he came and laid on me, he put a paw on my hand and looked back at me and gave me his last head bump.

I lost my cat 10 years ago. You never FULLY get over it but animals are so worth it if you want to really experience love and life in my opinion. His picture by my bed still chokes me up but makes me happy at the same time. With love comes sadness, but videos like this really help. I think I’m finally ready to get another one now.

Loosing a pet is by far the most painful and emotional stressful experience I have had to endured. Is a very gutting and heart shattering experience. I do know my faith kept me sane. 😢

My baby girl passed away last night in my bed right in front of me. This may be one of the hardest deaths I have ever gone through. She was my baby and my best friend. I feel so empty without her now….I miss her more than words can describe…

My 18 year old soulmate kitty died 3 weeks ago. I went to a cat cafe today just to be around cats. I miss him terribly. Thank you for this video.

My cat passed away 5 days ago, and yesterday's night was the worst because I cried and weeping for hours n' hours. I'm afraid to tell people that I'm going through depression about it because some of them might never care or will just laugh at me. It's still painful. I feel like I can't enjoy life again.

My parrot died today suddenly there was nothing I could do to save him but just hold him in his last moments. I can’t stop crying my heart is broken 😔

This morning my wife and I lost our first baby, our cat Ronnie, our 3 year old British Shorthair. He died suddenly and unexpectedly overnight. He looked like he was still sleeping, curled up on his perch. I've never felt pain like it, the sense of loss is unbelievable, not just for the last 3 years, but for the 10+ years more we were meant to have with him. He was meant to meet our children, grow up with them. Now we will just have to tell them about him. I am broken.

My cat passed away 2 days ago. She was fighting to stay alive. I cried for an hour straight with her lifeless body in my arms. Thank you for this video 😞😞

I had to put my best friend down yesterday. I never thought it would happen and I am devastated. I feel empty and so alone without him. I don’t know how I will ever get through this.

my sweet boy was put down today. i have never felt such pain, i am absolutely empty and heartbroken. he was 14 and his liver began failing. he lost his appetite and went from okay to in critial condition incredibly fast. he was my childhood pet and i miss him so much

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a beautiful black cat named Salem she passed away almost a year ago from stomach cancer. Putting her down was the hardest thing I ever had to do. It was the worst pain I've ever felt. I was stuck in a terrible depression as well. I eventually was blessed with a beautiful kitten another little girl. I named her Violet like the flower Violet. And she is perfect. I love her so much already. She's my shadow.

Our pets really are the best companions.

😢My cat Buster died today, he was 12 years old. I Love you SO MUCH 💞

I'm sorry for your loss, Elaine. My 15-year-old dog, Melody, passed away yesterday from a sudden heart attack. I'm devastated and crying uncontrollably. I miss her deeply and stumbled upon your video, which truly cheered me up. Thank you so much. I will definitely create an altar for her and write letters to honor her memory. I have a 14-year-old pug to take care of so I will be present for him. Once again, I'm sorry for your loss.

I cried when I watched the montage. Our cat died last week. I'm so sad. She was beautiful and our friend.

Sorry for your loss of your cat Hero! All pets goes to heaven ! 💐✝️🙏

Good advice. My cat, my sweet girl, died in my arms on Tuesday morning - naturally & suddenly, end stage lymphoma. Diagnosed the week before, she was paralysed with lethargy. Two weeks ago, she was fine - it came out of the blue. I spent her last days holding her & giving her every kiss she could feel, while she could still feel them. Said goodbye & told her I loved her. Gave her window time, to watch the birds & feel the sun & breeze - she loved her window sill. She was with me for nearly 20 years - two decades of harmony & content domestic simpatico. Most of my adult life. I am sick with grief & guilt for the lost seconds I could've loved her more. Even as she was dying, she would reach out with her paw & meow in response. Feel like I've lost the other half of my heartbeat. Feels unreal. She was a stray I took in, around 2006 - the sweetest, most emotionally intelligent animal I've ever known. Always present & loving. Everyday, her happy place was cuddling on my chest. I loved her more than anything. I miss her & never want another cat. I plan to get a tattoo of her paw prints.

Love to all who have lost our beloved companions ❤💔❤

My cat just passed away today. It is easily the hardest thing I've ever dealt with. I have spent almost my entire life with her. It hurts so, so much

it’s been over a year and i’m still in such a deep depression. he was my entire world and my best friend.

I lost my 7year old cat last day. I was away when when she died, since my college university is too far from my hometown. My parents took her to the vet, I paid the bills, but them she didnt make it. Im in a deep grief, it really pains me that I didnt get to have her in my arms when she took her last breath. It still breaks me, to my core. I’ll truly miss her. She was a family and a bestfriend. I hope she’ll spend her 8 more lives wt me.

I came home from work yesterday to my 17 year old cat dead. And I feel so crippled by guilt because my baby was right by the door as if she had been waiting for me. I keep replaying yesterday in my head wishing so badly that I stayed home with her.I had just took her to the vet the same day, and was waiting on the results of a blood test so they can come up with a diagnosis and treatment plan. I thought I had more time and that I had to work so I can afford her treatment. But I but now I wish I got her euthanized so that she would've been out of pain sooner and wouldn't have died alone. Thanks you so much for making this video. It makes me feel less crazy for being so devastated. I just keep seeing that image of her by the door and it feels like I have a spear in my chest.Also I'm sorry for your loss. You seem like the most amazing cat mom and an amazing person. 💛

My 16-year-old dog crossed the rainbow bridge on June 30 at 12:15pm and I am still broken. He was pure joy, and we thought of him as the energizer bunny. And he was until just a week before he left us. He was always on the move, curious (translation: nosey), and with me always. He slept curled behind me every night and I'm so lonely without him. We had pictures of him all over the house before this devastating loss, and now I look at the pictures and cry because I know I'll never again feel his cold nose on the back of my leg while I'm fixing dinner - letting me know he was there just in case there was a carrot or bit of cauliflower I could spare for him (I always did!). What this has taught me is that we never know when the 'last time' something will happen might be - the last time he would bring me his favorite toy to play with, the last time he'll bark to call the family to dinner because he could tell by what I was doing that dinner was ready (he was so smart that way!), or the last time he would cuddle under my arm on the pillow while I watched TV in the evening, just because he loved being there. His sweet, loving face is etched in my heart, and I will miss him forever. His sister (also 16) is still with us, so for her we've had to dial back the crying because she was struggling. The day after he crossed, she started throwing up and had a runny belly. Unfortunately, she has kidney disease and dehydration is terrible for her health. So off to the vet we went and were told that after being together for all their lives (16.5 years) she would grieve for a month or more, and can feel our upset and anguish, and the best we can do for her is to be more upbeat around her so she can more quickly adjust to being an only fur baby. I will do whatever it takes to help her over this, and can't imagine how awful it will be when it's her time to go. I'm 63, and grew up with dogs in the family, so this is not the first time I've said goodbye to a beloved pet. But Kiko (and Missy) have gotten us through the loss of my parents and my in-laws - they always knew when we needed a special cuddle and would gently lick of the tears from our faces, while helping us to know that things would get better. What I wouldn’t give for more time….

My cat died today after she got bit by a big pit bull yesterday. I have had her since before COVID started. Usually I don't cry about deaths but this one made my heart break into a million pieces..

We lost our beloved dog and have never experienced such intense emotional pain, despite considering ourselves as resilient and pragmatic people. We both fell into unexpected depression with insomnia and a complete lack of appetite. If this pain happens to you, it is an expression of the love you and your pet shared and needs to be expressed. Take your time. Be honest with people. Be kind to yourself. There is no easy fix when this happens as the pain can feel unbearable but listening to your true emotions, crying, slowing your breathing down and being honest about your grief with others will ease the intensity. If you have no appetite, drink plenty of water

Lost my senior girl, Chloe, 14 yrs old to congestive heart failure. She was hiding a murmur and had worsened her cough from collapsed trachea. Absolutely heartbroken. To all the pet moms and dads who lost their furry kiddos and are watching this video too, my deepest sympathies for your loss. We are in it together, you're not alone and this top shall pass. ❤ our kiddos are ok , suffering is over ❤

I lost my sweet lil panther boy in August 2022. He had been sick with kidney disease for 2 years, but it was his hind legs giving out on him that became his demise. He was my roommates cat, but he quickly bonded with me back in 2018 and the rest is history. I miss him so much still and never thought I'd have such heartache over an animal. But, he was more than an animal, he was my baby boy, my soulmate - alas, he was my everything. I run a small business and I named it after him in his honor - to which I proudly share when I do craft fairs. Just remember: Not All Soulmates Are Human. I found a very meaningful quote yesterday and it really hit home. “Grief, I've learned, is really just love. It's all the love you want to give, but cannot. All of that unspent love gathers in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in the hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”

My precious cat passed away at October 6, 2023 at age 18 cat age. She was having difficulty getting up on her feet and trouble breathing. The moment I saw her behavior, I had to take her to the vet. The doctor informed us she had respiratory distress, fluid in her lungs, dehydration. Then, my fear came true. It was very painful to see my cat go. For the past 17 years, she was like a daughter to me and we took care of her very much in great health! The last thing I wanna do for my cat is to cut off her thick fur ball for free, which is very pricey these days. I'm still in deep depression after her passing, it was the hardest choice for us to make.

I've lost my cat today, had her for 11 years...think I really needed to see this.

So sorry for your loss, I lost my guy after 14+years on 06/17/23. I pray for all of us and yes its been really rough ever since.

Thanks for this. I’m so devastated by my baby girl, almost 16, being euthanized on 7/11. It’s so painful :( sending love to all those in similar scenario

Lost my boy 10years ago - am still grieving for him ,all my boys,but as I had Patch for over 14 years the loss has crippled me - 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I just got home to find out that I lost my beautiful maltice dog Teddy passed away TODAY. He was such a good dog. I am so broken. I had him for 12 years. So many memories. This is too hard for me. 😢

lost my doggo today, this was by far the most painful things i have ever experienced, been crying for 2 hours straight. I've had him since i was 7, i'm 15 now, i don't know if i'm ever gonna get over this

I agree,no more pets! No other can replace my baby boy! NEVER!

We put our dog to sleep last night. Hardest decision I made and I miss him so much 😢

So glad I found your video. So sorry for your Hero. Cancer really is a hellhole, for both pets and people. My Indy (my soul horse) passed away 1 year and a half ago after battling melanoma for 15 years or longer. She lasted out of sheer will and resilience and that's what I will remember of her. My soul dog passed away last december, right before Christmas. She was my companion and my baby's best friend, she only had love in her soul, not a drop of resentment even though she was a rescue. Animals really do teach us the most valuable lessons, if only we listen to their message.

The little montage at the end is very sad but beautiful. My cat died in January and she was almost 16. Elaine has some good suggestions if you're dealing with a loss.

Thank you so much for those tips on coping with pet loss, I had to put my beautiful girl cat Kyuss down two days ago and I am completely heartbroken, I can't believe she is gone,her and my boy cat Zephyr are my world and it hurts so much that one of them isn't here anymore watching this definitely gave me some perspective on how to get through this, to anyone else who has lost a pet I wish you so much love and peace,pet loss is one of the hardest things in life that anyone can go through.

I lost my dog 6 months ago to the same kind of cancer as your Hero did, and I’m so sorry for your loss. This was the literal worst pain I have ever felt, not a day goes by that I don’t think about my buddy. I’ve been struggling so much with my grief and this video has given me so much insight and I want to heal so badly. I had him for 10 years (2013-2023) and I swear my childhood died with him since I got him when I was 8. I’m 18 now, I’ll be turning 19 exactly a week before the 1 year anniversary date. I spend as much time as possible with my other dogs because i know they’re grieving him as much as i am. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about him and miss him. I’ve now started keeping a journal and writing letters here and there just giving him little updates about what he can’t experience with me as we did everything together for 10 years. He never left my side for a moment and that won’t start now. Thank you so much for this video.

Your Hero is a beautiful boy. May God bless your heart with peace until you are reunited with him one day.

Thank you Elaine for sharing your story. I lost my 2 old ladies - Mia at 15 and CC at 20. Mia passed right before Christmas and CC the day before Valentine's Day. I still carry so much guilt about not recognizing when it was their time earlier. I said I would never get another cat - I was done, got rid of all the cat stuff and bought new furniture. I baby sat for one of my neighbors while they were on a 2 week vacation, spending time with their senior kitty. I started to feel something nibbling at my heart and began searching online. Suddenly 2 older cats (a mom and daughter) appeared in my search needing to be re-homed. Now it's 4 months later and Gemma and Miss Fluff seem like they've always lived here. I truly believe the universe will let you know when it's time and guide you towards your next animal companion. ❤

My baby dog passed away this morning of advanced congestive heart failure. She was 14.5 years old. We fought the battle with meds, diet, fluid drainage, regular cardiologist visits and made it through 3 years paw in hand vs her 6 month prognosis. Everyone said to euthanize her but I prayed to god for her to go on her own time before she started to suffer too much and she did…. I loved and love her more than words can describe. She was my rock… the most kind, fair, protective and family oriented girl with the strongest spirit and character that pulled me through so many ups and downs. I can’t imagine life without her, I feel like an empty shell and can only pray that her soul is in a beautiful and happy place… I feel relief that she is no longer in pain and hope she knew how much mommy loved her back.

I really needed this video because losing my beloved puppy has been life altering and yet everyone around expects me to move on. I keep on saying this but our pet's love is purely unconditional and genuine.

I don’t think you understand how much you touched my heart tonight, I just lost my pug of 10 years. Unfortunately, it was the Sunday in Minnesota and unless you have $500 they won’t even look at shit.😢 I walked in to an emergency vet, where there was two people waiting for their pets to be seen, however, when I told the lady my dog is dying in my arms, the only thing she did was tell me I had to go somewhere else!!!! WTF is wrong with these people! Some of us love our animals, as if though they were our own children! And for a veterinarian to turn down a dying animal is some thing I never thought could happen! I am dying inside. I still cry every night, I wake up crying I hold his ashes next to me. What hurts the most is the I could’ve’s and I should’ve’s… But like my daughter said when it’s third time mom is just their time. I held him in my arms and told the little guy you can go to God no baby, he looked out the window and his body jerked… Almost felt like his soul was leaving his body. After that, he lost his bodily fluids, I was in so much pain, the people that we took him to after we’re so great to me, but I can’t help but think?? If I gave him some more water, or if I gave him pain medication, maybe even begged for anyone to help me more than I already did then maybe he’d be like today😢 After Praying I scrolled up and found this video. I want to say thank you very much for understanding. Seriously these rules for animals not being human. Need to change not everybody is rich, I am pending disability right now and because of that my dog is dead I know it sounds terrible, people say it’s just a dog, and I swear I wanna slap them, because I’ve never had a furry little guy. Love me as much as he did.. we’ve been through so much together, and every time I cried, he would jump in my lap… As if to tell me, everything’s gonna be OK mommy ❤ I honestly don’t think I’m gonna get over my little girl life for a long time. He has a little brother name Zeke, and all he does is mope looking out the window and when he hears me talk about Bentley he looks for him everywhere.🥹 anyway sweetheart I just wanna say thank you🙏🏼💕 and yes, we will see them again I believe that with my heart and soul👍💕🙏🏼😍😭

My Dog Coco died Tuesday, it was a sudden death, he was only 5 years old, and my only consistent companion, we had so many things to do. I was so mad with pain that I fought with many people just so I didn't had to think about it. I saw your beautiful video Today and now I understand better the loss of a pet. Thank you so much, and like you, will find a way to honor my pet by being a better person. So sorry for your loss...

Your memorial is beautiful! Thank you for sharing🥹❤️

thank you very much for making this video for everyone who is currently grieving. It's comforting to know i'm not alone with this immense pain after losing my soul dog.

Thank you, my 17 year old baby angel cat left this world in my arms two days ago, and I’m not sure how to even go through my day without him by my side.

How do people get through the pain, suffering, torment, torture and anxiety? I wouldn't want to make the decision to put down an animal, i don't know how people cope. My Yorkie Benji was taken from me by a coyote. He had another 3-5 years of life maybe more. I thought I was going to take care of him forever and didn't think much about him dying. I knew his time was coming as he would be 12 yo in October. But it was him and I together as best friends. And a family connection with my recently passed mother who was his caretaker for most of his life. Can't believe he's gone and never coming back like he never existed. Now he's a fading memory of a beautiful friend of unconditional love.

On July 10th I had to put down my sweet cat, Brody. She was around 20 with all sorts of ailments, mainly kidney disease. I had her for a long, lucky 17 years. The pain is absolutely unbearable and I miss her every second of every single day. I unfortunately will have to make the same decision soon with my sweet baby boy, Timmy, who is also in his 20s with kidney disease (among other ailments). I feel like I am going to shatter into a million pieces when I lose him. 17 years is a long time and I've bonded so deeply with my babies. They're my world and now that one of them is gone it feels like a piece of me is missing. When Timmy goes, another piece will be gone and I know I'll feel hollow and completely empty. My condolences to everyone here who commented about their pets and their loss. "Grief is just love with no place to go."

I'm so sorry for your Loss... it is true what you said it's worse than losing a human in more painful then you can imagine I just lost my dogs 2 weeks ago and I'm still devastated but it's a process that I'll get better little by little it's the most painful process that I had to go through thank you for making this video.....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lost my sweet boy of 20 years last month and it’s still the the hardest thing everyday without him. I feel like I’m walking around with a huge hole just empty waiting to hold him again. I’ve had him almost my whole life, 12-32, every home. I don’t know how people ever not miss their babies 😪

Thank you for your words and tribute to your beautiful animal companion. My best friend and soulmate Brooklyn died May 8th. He was a 100 lb. Goldendoodle. He did everything with me. We shopped together, went to the parks, bank, Starbucks and more. Everyone called him the most well behaved dog they ever met. He loved people, cats, dogs, and life. Today was difficult without him due to being a holiday. I have been attending pet loss support groups. I am allowing my grief. There is a neighbor cat that is not being taken care of very well. He would follow me and Brooklyn on our walks. I feed him daily and spend time with him outside. He looks through my window and I talk to him I feel Brooklyn sent him to comfort me. Thank you.❤

I lost my 18 year old pomeranian yesterday at 9:20am. I feel like I can't breathe. My heart hurts. I can't go to work. I barely made it to the shower this evening. I'm so glad I found your channel. Thank you.

I found out that my my dog Maximillian passed away last night in his sleep. He was my first pet and I only had him for 2 years. I wish I could have had him for longer but I’m so thankful for the time we had together. ❤

Im over 3years out from my soulcat Fireball passing and I was bawling 2 nights ago. Ive never been the same person again.

We had to put our 10yr old cat Sammy down after his heart suddenly started failing. The amount of grief I experienced from the loss was the most consuming soul wrentching feeling. I couldnt cope with it . It didnt feel real .He passed on 12.19.2023. forever loved and forever missed.

im losing my little doggy and the pain is unbearable. i will never get over it.

I lost my baby boy, Maxwell, 2 days ago. It was hard to eat, and to even shower after his passing. Max passed at 8 years old. I had him for almost 7 years. Grief about your pet (more like family) is very real. We have to love our animals with all of our hearts while they are still here and to not take their time for granted.

Thank you for this video. I lost my soul cat so suddenly last week. My roomate called me while I was at work and told me he cardiac arrested, and it was the worst day of my life. Every day following that has been surreal. I am a huge fan of meditation as well. It is nice to know that we are not alone in our grief and others share the same feelings and survive.

I love animals so much and I can never have another one due to the fact that when they pass I can't handle it. Now I just love all my friends animals and that's hard enough

Elaine, you are such a beautiful, enlightened soul. Among all the vids I have watched regarding mourning the loss of a fur kid, your vid by far is the most helpful and spot on. My Apple Blossom, tiger cat, went to heaven last Thursday morning. I have lost many loves in my life, but this one hit me the hardest. Apple was by far the sweetest, most tender hearted, loving being I have known in my 61 yrs on earth. All of your 11 healing items are imperative. For me, number 9, helping other fur kids to mourn and heal. Apple was 14 yrs old, had a heart episode at age 11, they gave her weeks to live, she fought and made 2.5 more yrs. Her bestie was the 2nd love of my life Betty Boop the tortie with tude. They were together since kittens and truly bonded as sisters. Betty is missing her big sissy so much, but with all the love, attention, and treats Betty needs, this Cat Dad will help her mourn and heal.

Lost my cat yesterday as this has been an especially difficult time for me. Thanks for sharing this video.

I lost my 10 year old sweetheart of a pitbull last night and I’m crushed. Thank you for sharing this video, reminds me I’m not alone in these feelings 💔

I’ve lost 3 animals in the past two months, my greyhound and my two rats, I lost the second rat today, I just started recovering from depression but I’m relapsing, thank you for making this for us

I’m deeply sorry for your loss. Yesterday I came back from a short vacation and found my baby Blue had passed. He was my first budgie that turned 4 just a month ago. I wish I could have been there with him while he crossed the bridge. I know he wasn’t alone because he passed sleeping next to his brothers cage❤️ I’m so sorry to everyone else who is going through this pain. It is unbearable but I like to remember that he is always with me.

My cat died yesterday - hit by a car. Total shock and PAIN. I loved her SO damn much and she was only 2 and full of life. It hurts so much right now…😞

Searching for comfort tonight. Just lost my dog Jack today. He was almost 14. Cant sleep, and miss his so much tonight. Thanks for your advice and kind words.

Oh, Love...I feel your loss. I have had to let go of six of my own Loves...(4) cats and (2) rabbits...It is INCREDIBLY stressful, saddening and heart-wrenching...I hear you. Sending supportive hugs.

My dog died two days ago. I can't breathe. I really don't want to live. He was with me everyday for 14 years, through surgeries, heart aches, disability. I don't know how to go on. And I am so sorry about your cat. Thank you for the video.

Thank you so much for helping me let go. My cat died in December 2023, but I still feel grief about his death and cry whenever I see an old picture of him. It was a perfect day, the first snow day in a while, when I came home, and I received the news he'd been hit by a car and died on impact. Probably by a speeder, as it's a 20 mph zone where we live and he would've lived otherwise. He was only a year old. I miss him so much but this video has helped Rest in piece, Orion.

I lost Rico 2 days ago. I had him for 15 years. He was my handsome man, my best friend, and my soul animal. I miss him so much. He sent me this video. It came up on my youtube home page. Thank you so much. I will be writing a letter to my handsome man Rico Suave tonight.

My little love passed away a year ago which broke my heart into I just go on without my little love I didn't want to go on without her I will cry everyday I miss her so much it hurts so much she was my world I had to watch her die right in front of me within a few hours I feel for anyone who's lost a pet you never get over it

My 15yo cat passed a few days ago and I can't help but think of all the things that I could've done to maybe save her. The hardest part is realizing that she is now in the past and I will never get to hold her again. My fluffy girl, she was the light and love of my life.

I feel your pain ....my Measly cat of 17 years past away this past weekend. She unfortunately had a bunch of health problems and they had to euthanize her . This one has hit me very hard , partly because she died two years after my Nijer cat and partly because I felt like it was my fault for not doing more for her health . Measly and Nijer where there for me when my mom and dad died of cancer . It's been very difficult and I'm slowly getting to the point where I'm not just crying or sitting . I've talked to friends and family and it's helped . I have heart problems and I can say this one almost put me in the hospital. I'm staying strong because I have two other cats and I help with my neighbors cat . I feel for anyone that has lost an animal. I know some day I will see them all again .

I am so so sorry for your loss, Elaine. Hero by name, Hero by nature, from what you say about your beloved boy, and the montage you created for him. I think you list so many good tips. My little darling cat of 19 years left me yesterday. Her mommy cat died thirteen years before on exactly the same date. I am devastated without her, but happy she is reunited with her cat family. And I will see them all again. Besides, I still have a young cat family (not related to my baby just passed) to take care of. I hope you still feel Hero's presence. There is nothing quite like it.

Losing my beautiful Pomeranian Coal is the hardest thing I’ve ever felt it happened on August 7th kind all of sudden so it’s even harder to make sense of it it developed seizures in a matter of 2 days I had to make the ultimate decision and the vet came over he died peacefully in my arms I will never forget him he was almost 15 years old it was a love I never knew before he came into my life at 3 months old I hope he is waiting for me in heaven he was my angel on this earth the love was pure and unconditional not many people truly understand the pain you go through when loosing a pet Soulmate it’s a hard journey to travel but happy for having had him in my life even though it was such tough interruption of this wonderful experience 🌈🙏🏻

Yesterday I had to put my baby Billy to sleep. He was suffering and in pain because of cancer. I’m devastated. He was my love and my best companion. Can’t find enough words to describe the feeling of losing him.

Thank you for your kind words advice and compassion. I loss my Birdie 6 months ago. And it feels just as hard now as it did 6 months ago. What get me through is keeping in mind how much my Bird loved me and keep her pictures and memories close to me. Thanks again and sorry for your loss of your precious fur Baby❤️😺🐦

Yesterday, my heart broke into a thousand pieces I had to put my youngest cat down because of something he ate or perhaps contracted. I'm 75 and have been through this many, many times. It always hurts so much. I know that time and understanding will soften the pain, but right now, the pain is devastating. Peace and much love to you.

Just looking for anything on youtube to help me ease the pain I feel after my loss today. He was only four years old and I feel like I failed him. Thank you for this video.

My baby passed away on 22nd March which is like 2 days ago. He fell from second floor and sustained injuries. He died due to complete wrong treatment and negligence of the vet. Just so that he doesn’t stop getting his visit charges he kept on saying he’s fine and will be fine and didn’t refer me to a better place. This is my first time facing situations like this and I regret contacting that vet and everything that happened to him. I hope he finds peace in death and is in a better place. I love you GOLDEN and mom and dad is missing you too please be happy and peaceful wherever you are. 🕊️❤️

You will meet again ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏. It's not a goodbye...

ThNk you with all i am for making this…ill return today to her favorite place in the whole world…my brothers house…it is there shes buried….i have her side kick still and your 11 ways are so good…hit hard..i know i can be better by the rest❤️🙏🏻

We just put down our beautiful boy (cavachon) and I miss him terribly already. My heart is broken. We form such a strong and unique bond with our pets. They are family.

Lost our young, innocent, shy and precious cat Pisana a few days ago. She was too young and was ran over had her only for about a year and she was so caring and always tried not to get in your way. Feels terrible, my first ever pet and I’m 20 I haven’t cried like this before, I don’t remember when I last cried? R.I.P Pisana 😞💔🙏😭 watching this video made me realise how similar our cats look as well. 😞

Hero was so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your memorial to him. Thank you for your comforting advice ❤

The pain never goes away.

Thanks for your video about your beloved baby Hero. I lost my Cairn Terrier girl Zoey on 02/26/2024 to a very sudden illness. She was only ten. I am a 69 year old widow with no children. My pets were my children . Zoey has been my constant companion and best friend ever. Her and I have been through so many challenges in her short life…she always received to most love and care I could provide for her. She was the best listener ever. After my husband (her human Daddy) passed away, she was so much comfort for me. So I understand your strong connection with Hero. I will forever miss my Baby Girl and I know she is in Heaven with her human Daddy, Mike. I held her in my arms as she left this earth. I have had four other Cairns before her, losing them was very hard also, but my Zoey Girl was my heart and soul. I now feel so alone…I live with my sister and her four furry babies, but it just isn’t the same… Thanks so much for listening. 🐾💔🙏🏼💔🐾🥲🥲🥲

I just had my pet cat Oreo who recently just turned 10 years old pass away after suffering a sudden stroke on August 28th 2023.. It was the worst day of my life and with no warning... and it all happened when I was work only to come home to see the aftermath.. She was perfectly healthy.. After bringing her home from the vet, I spent 18 hours by Oreos side in hopes she would pull through only to pass away in my arms the next day.. Oreo was the most loveable, playful, spunky and most spoiled cat you could ever ask for.. She came into my life after showing up at my front porch on a cold winter day back in 2014 and did not want to leave, I brought her inside and she was loved since. Oreo was around a year old when she found me. I'm really, really going to miss my baby.. She was my sleeping buddy.. She has reunited with my other cat Blossom who I lost 5 years ago to this day from cancer.. 😥😥 -Derek

I had to put down my sweet 16 year old cat because of a dead end diagnosis. She was so sick but staying alive for me. Truly heart breaking 💔 the night that she was gone I felt like I was being shattered from inside out. She went through life with me. Moved from China to Canada with me witnessed my growth marriage divorce and found love again. Went through all the paper writing by my side when I was studying for my master degree. I felt completely lost without her😢 the pain comes and goes. But I do force myself to take walk in the nature. I find it helps.

My jackjack was only 2 when he passed 10 months ago. The hardest part for me is the guilt i still feel. I still can't help but feel that I should have done more.

my cat Lily died 3 days ago. She was only 6 months old, we adopted her in June and she was with us until September. I'm so depressed, I can't eat, I can't sleep. I keep looking at her pictures and videos. No one can replace her, she was the perfect cat for me and my family. I cry every day, night and I think I will seek the help of a psychologist. I still haven't adjusted to her absence.

This is so relatable. I just lost my 15-year-old, 16 in 6 months. I really blame myself that I probably could have helped her suffer less in her last moment. Last month's vet visit wasn't so good. She was severely anaemic (below the low norm), had high phosphate, & vomited often, most likely kidney failure. In the past few months, she became super close, sleeping on top of me & and being such a baby. But she was also finding a dark & quiet spot which I kinda knew something was up. Yesterday her condition worsened, the night before she was having trouble walking with her hind. Refusing to eat or drink for 2 days. Became super lethargic unable to move, barely opening her eyes with a runny nose. Looks super emaciated. My mom(a stroke survivor) was comforting her all night. Woke up to hear her last few loud meows, eyes fully open refusing to close, & breathing became slower. I considered PTS but it felt like it was too late with her worsening state & I didn't want to stress her out on a vet visit. Now I'm finding good places to do cremation. Have thoughts of taxidermy.

it’s almost been year since my baby passed , around January 26th, and i’ve felt horrible this past year. nothing but grief and an immense feeling of grief . he grew up with me from 3 years old to almost 19. i didn’t even have any memories before him and his lost was devastating. especially because nobody understood and i felt as though nobody cared, not even my “friends”. it’s been a devastating experience but my goal is to support other people going through the same, i always try to reach out whenever i hear someone loses a pet and make it clear i’m there to talk to them.

Your Hero looks just like my Gunner. I'm so sorry for your loss.
