That's all I can post for now - I'm a mess, but wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate your love and support.

oh no, I'm so sorry! I went through the same situation last year with my kitty so I know how you feel. I had to say good bye and leave the room... I couldn't be there when she was put to sleep. It's one of the toughest things I've ever had to do. You're in my thoughts.

Unhappy Ooohhh...
Livia, I'm so sorry to hear this. My heart breaks for you.

This May 31st will be a year since we lost Candy. It was the most difficult decision of my life so far and being there as she left us....no words can describe the pain in our hearts. We have her ashes and a lock of her hair in our living room. She's always with us and Cagie will be with you always too.

I'm so sorry. I truly dread the day you had.
My dog's been battling cancer for 14 months now. I know how heart wrenching it is.
My best wishes for you.

Oh, oh, I am so sorry!

It is heartbreaking that our wonderful pets can't stay with us longer. My mother and I both have cats in their teens, and one we lost two years ago, and well, I am dreading the goodbyes. I keep reminding myself that they are well-loved while we have them.

Oh Livia, I'm so sorry that you lost your baby. I know how truly gut-wrenching it is, but eventually you will remember just the love and good times and the pain will ease. Big hugs to you.

Oh Livia, I'm so sorry , he was such a sweetie when I met him, so cute. I know this is hard for you, I know our pets are our babies (well, I don't have any right now, but when I did, I SPOILED them!) Call me if you need to, I can't believe this!



Edit: I see you did call last night, I called you back, talk to you soon!
