Do you have a (Ex) animal? puppie, cat, hamster...

Oh what a beautiful kind person you are, all animals should be so lucky to have an owner like you, yes all animals deserve to be loved, they feel love and pain just like us, and so many people are just so uncaring for them...we all should love our animals... thank you ruibinha for letting us hear your story... I hope you get another pet to love...

I'm sorry to hear about your dog.

My cat died two years ago. He was 18, so there wasn't very much we could do. He'd been sick for awhile and one day he just disappeared. It was really awful at the time, but, in retrospect, I think having to put him down would have just destroyed me.

Last summer my sister's Pom got very sick. Daisy (the dog, not the sister) loves food, and after years of getting table scraps her gallbladder got infected. Our vet said this was something he'd only seen twice in about 20 years of veterinary work.

Daisy's fine now, if missing a gallbladder, but she can't have fatty foods or regular dog treats now (tonight the pizza guy offered her a Milk Bone, and I felt like a complete jerk having to say she couldn't have it)

I do have another cat now, but she's not a replacement. While I was still looking I decided that I'd get a female cat (the late cat was male) and one with different markings since any point of comparison just wouldn't be fair to the new cat.

I know pet grief is very difficult, but I don't think you have to give up on owning a cat or dog after yours dies. Some people need more time than others, but I think sometimes it's a matter of being chosen by an animal.

My story is sooooo similar to yours, I got Widdle (Cocapoo/ Schnauser) when I was 8 years old, she was the best dog I have ever had and I loved her very muc, she was my baby and we were together constantly, then when I was 20 I got married and left her at home with my mom and dad cause I thought she would be happiest where she had always lived but when I went home a week later my dad told me that I needed to take her home with me or she would not last another week, she was very sad and depressed without me. So I took her home and we lived happily for about 2 more years, then when I was 22 and she was 14, I noticed a lump on one of her nipples, so I took her to the vet and found out she had cancer, she kept getting sicker and sicke and it filled her stomache with cancer liquids and then one night she was so sick and wouldn't eat so I had my husband take us to the vet and had her put down so she was out of her misery, I had 14 wonderful years with her that I am very happy I had, and still to this day 9 years later, I miss her very much.

How sad I feel for you, I know how hard it is to lose a pet. I've lost a few of my cats to death, or had to get rid of them. And I'd cry for days.

I now have 4 cats, and my husband and I love them to pieces. If anything would happen to one of them it would really hurt.

I've always loved my pets, being an only child. And now not have any children. So our pets are our family....
Good luck to you, take care...Love be with you..

ya i had a pet dog name laddu.its vey nice dog i miss it a lot.i like playing with it.

Your story is wonderful, i'm sorry it had to end. Earlier this year, my dog nearly died from a massive tumor bleed. I would be completely devastated if i lost him. My family adopted him when I was 7, and we kind of grew up together, I see my dog like a sibling.

me and my sisters have a pet dog, her name is teng. she's very friendly and lovable even to strangers, always wants to be hugged. the other day she went out of our gate unnoticed (she knows how to push open the gate if it is not locked) and didn't come back the whole night. we tried to look for her around our place but we couldn't find her. early the next morning she was outside our house wounded and bleeding (she has two wounds caused by stabbing) but we are happy she's alive.

I used to have a dog and a rat. Not at the same time though. First for years going up I had a dog. Her name was Ruby. She was rott and part austrialan shepherd. My family got her when she was 1. She loved me alot and very loyal and protective. I loved her alot and still miss her. She was put down at 13yrs.because I guess blind and wouldn't get off her bed to do anything. My uncle had her at this age and he's she was getting worse and to old. Then years later I got married and we got a rat from our neighbors. I loved that rat. her name was "Baby" she was full grown adult. we had her for a few months then she got cancer and that prevented her from moving. I miss her. I will never get a another rat because I didn't have my son. That was a fun time I never want to visit again. I only want a another dog one of these days.

I have a dog when I was just three years old. I can't remember her name but I think I used to call her "bantay"- means guard in English. She was very big like a german shepherd, but she was just an ordinary mongrel. After a month I didn't saw her anymore. I cried because i miss her so much.She was always at my side guarding me. My mom told me that since my dog is very old and frail enough, my father decided to slaughter and cook her. Hu!hu!hu! poor dog. But now, dog slaughtering is already a crime in our country. Those who will do it will pay some cash and will be prison.
