Sad news to lose a furbaby.

Condolences to our friend Cyncy Spyder over the loss of
Teddy. Those of us who have had the pleasure of having "furfriends" know the loss and emptyness left by the passing of one of them.

They have a special place as our constant companions and friends.

I am going to print the Rainbow Bridge poem although it will make most of you cry.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

This is indeed sad news. I also put my best friend " Max " ( avatar ) to sleep in Aug. of 19, He developed congestive heart failure in Apr. and the meds kept Him comfortable for His last 4 mo. ... However His condition got progressively worse even with the Meds..... At the end He was beginning to suffer again and I couldn't let that continue .... The Vet administered the final shot while He was in my lap while I spoon fed Him ice cream ....... I first met Dave and Teddy back in 2012 at S.I.T.A which was held in upstate NY .... He was just a pup and entertained all of us with His vigor. I brought Prime Rib for the BBQ and made sure Teddy was included in the feast .... Dave posted pics of Teddy enjoying that meal ...... My heart goes out to Dave for His loss ..... R.I.P. Teddy .................... Mike ...... I will also Pm Dave

Marci and I have a wall in our home with 11 framed letters on it. Each one has a cherished picture of the "furry friend" that sent it to us, along with the letter itself.
The letter is from them in heaven, telling us the things they want us to remember (good and bad) about their time with us. They try and make us laugh about their "canine capers" over the years, along with their remembering how we loved and cared for them when they needed us too. As others have said, it is always an extremely difficult time when it comes...and this is our way of getting thru it.
I would attach one of the letters if I knew how.
