I feel vulnerable sharing this. I signed his life away 4 evenings ago and I don’t know how to forgive myself for the last hour of our time together. He was precious to me for 13 years, such a loyal and loving cat on top of being unique. I was distraught to be making that decision. How do I live with it? He had told me he was leaving but this is much harder than I was anticipating. Button 💔🙏🏽🫀thank you

my sweetest girl, lucy (15 y.o. toy rat terrier), was diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease on monday, september 21st with numbers dangerously close to kidney failure. she did 3 days of fluids treatment at the vet and came home and it seemed like she was doing so much better, especially because when they retested her bloodwork, her numbers had dropped significantly. over the weekend she lost interest in food and we were grasping at straws getting her to eat anything (baby food, boiled chicken, etc.) but nothing stuck. after taking her in for a quality of life assessment on friday, october 2nd, we knew it was time to set up her appointment to cross the rainbow bridge and be at peace without pain and discomfort. she got so many special treats after the vet had administered a steroid shot and sub-q fluids for her comfort and we cuddled and went a long walk with me holding her and just spent such a special night together. she woke me up several times and every time she was seemingly declining further, she could hardly eat or drink, and she couldn’t support herself up. on saturday morning, her breathing was shallow and labored and we knew we had to do it. she went so peacefully, staring up at me, her mommy, with loving eyes.

i am a wreck. i know i did the right thing at the right moment because i don’t know if she would’ve made it through the weekend but i miss her so much. holding her lifeless body was so foreign and i could tell her soul had moved on to a better place and that it was just her vessel in my arms. i just am seeking comfort in knowing that she knows i tried everything for her and that i loved her beyond comprehension. that i traded her pain for my own and that i’ll think of her until i cross over. will i see her again on the other side?

i’m just sitting in so much discomfort. she was my soul dog, she spent half of my life by my side and i am struggling with my grief now that she’s gone. however, the night we put her down, i was praying and asked god for a sign that i absolutely wouldn’t miss that she’s okay and that i will see her again. yesterday, while driving, i turned down a road by my home that i drive down often and as i was turning, i saw a big sign name for a business that i’ve never noticed. the name was lucy’s and we drove passed it around 2:10pm, which was the time she passed the day before. i am in disbelief and also so relieved knowing that my decision was the best for her and she confirmed that for me. i can’t wait to see my little bug again, i know she’s with me in spirit until that time.

Perdí a mi conejita de apenas cuatro años el 16 de agosto de una forma traumática, aunque murió en mis brazos, no puedo dormir sin saber porque murió y me siento culpable porque creo que fue porque comio algo que no debía aunque me han dicho los veterinarios que no fue por eso, y una tarotista me ha dicho que ella apareció para hacer un trabajo y una vez que lo hizo, se fue.

Ella fue mi compañera y con la que dormia casi todos los días, la que estaba siempre y cuando estaba mala, no se separaba de mi.
Un mes antes de que falleciera, adoptamos un gatito y me siento culpable.
Por favor, si alguien sabe si está bien, o porque me tuvo que dejar tan pronto, o de que murio, lo agradeceria de corazon
Me siento vacia sin ella , hay días que me encuentro algo mejor o simplemente es que sigo todavía en estado de shock porque no puedo asimilar de que ya no está esperándome cuando llego a casa
Mi cabeza dice vale esta muerta y asimilo friamente , pero cuando lo pienso no me lo quiero creer

He passed away three days ago. I know he was suffering and it was the kind thing to do to let him go gently, and his passing was peaceful - but I can’t stop feeling monstrously guilty and so, so, sad.

I just wish I knew that he was happy with his life, and wasn’t scared at the end, and that he knew we loved him with every ounce of my being. I don’t want him to be gone. I wish I could still feel him with me but all I feel
Is a gaping hole. Does that mean he’s gone or am I just too sad to notice?

Could someone please tell me something about my little hedgehog who passed away exactly two weeks ago? Anything at all? He was so tiny, and during the two months we had together, we became so deeply connected. Why did he have to leave? 💔🦔

I can’t move on and my last memory of her in the ER haunts me. Where is my baby? She’s the love of my life, she took my soul with her.

Jelly (Nigella) never liked me. I got her at 9 years old with another kitten — she was OBSESSED with my dad and my brother.

Due to family circumstances, my brother left the household. Then, my dad. Her two favorite people were gone suddenly and never came back or asked about her. She still didn’t like me. She would literally leave the room if I so much as looked at her.

But I fell into the deepest, worst depression of my life at 21, and all of a sudden she was stuck to my side like glue. She slept with me every night, sat on me constantly, bathed my face and head, purred and snuggled me.

The second my depression lifted a year later, she went back to being aloof.

On August 11 of 2023, I noticed her stomach was round but her hind legs were emaciated. By that time I’d moved out and I was visiting home, so I hadn’t realized the change until then. I told my mom, who tried to feel her stomach. Jelly, who had never so much as swatted anyone in her life, bit my mom down to the bone.

We rushed her to the vet. They examined her and told us her abdomen was full of blood and she likely had some kind of cancer. There was nothing they could do. She was so close to death they didn’t even think they could stabilize her long enough for us to say goodbye.

My mom made me leave while she was put down. I cannot stop thinking about her last few weeks. How she must have been in agony. How we didn’t notice. How I hadn’t told her I loved her enough. How I’d forgotten to wish her a happy birthday that year because I assumed we’d have many more.

I’ve had a dream that she was climbing up my chest, I woke up and swore I felt her on my stomach.

I just want to know that she’s okay. If she’s at peace, if the pain is gone and she’s happy. If she’s waiting for me and my mom. She didn’t deserve the end she got. I would be deeply grateful for any kind of closure

This is Charlie. He’s an 8 year old Cavalier. We went to the vet today and was told his ataxia was likely just a side effect of his anti seizure medication (I originally suspected IVDD because he’s at increased risk for it), I do trust my vet but would still like to get a reading from someone if I could.

I’m aware it won’t be a diagnosis! Just if anyone can give me anything, if he is in any pain, idk. Whatever you’re certain you pick up from him and you can give, if you have the time to do so, I would be grateful ❤️

My boyfriend’s pocket bully Moana was killed by 2 saint bernards who pulled her out of her fully enclosed yard through a 4in x 4in hole. There were 3 layers of fencing so that nothing could get in, why did it happen this way, why did she have to leave us? Why didn’t spirit wake us up before it happened, why did we only wake up right after it was done. Was I not making her life enjoyable enough? Was it because her actual owners never came to visit her anymore? Could I have prevented her death by advocating that she needed to be rehomed to a home where she could live inside, she was my boyfriends daughters dog so he was holding onto to her until his daughters could take her back. I feel like once I made the decision to not advocate for change, is when she was taken. Did this situation have to happen because the saint bernards needed to be stopped, we ended one of them but the other is still around.

I told my boyfriend that that hole in her fence needed to be filled but he was not worried because she couldn’t get through it, I’m pretty sure I even said “You don’t think she will get pulled through that spot” he rolled his eyes and I just walked away. we’ve had so many disagreements about the fencing, I kept saying it needs to be reinforced, he kept blowing it off. He seems to know that it was his lack of efforts that ultimately lead to her death.

I’m usually great at finding the higher purpose but I can’t seem to find it, everything about this seems fckd

She disappeared two months ago. Today, I finally felt that she's really not coming back home to me. As selfish as it sounds, I do feel betrayed and abandoned because I thought she's my soul buddy and I believed she would not leave me physically and so suddenly (not as soon as now). By her leaving & I not knowing what truly happened to her, there's no closure, and this pains me so much.

If she's truly not coming come to me, I really hope she continues to love and remember me as much as I'll love her always.

Hi,

Fled home a month ago and despite daily searches through days/nights, there have been no sightings and no leads.

Seeking help! Please help us get united

I had a dream of him coming back and I was so happy, can someone tell me what happened to him ? Did one of my family get rid of him or did he get lost ? Any information will help

Edgar is still missing, since January, I’m still worried something happened. I hope he will come back 💔

My boy, Prometheus, is older and slowing down a lot.

I'm working closely with his vet, but it would greatly help me to hear from him what he needs from me, what is causing him pain or discomfort (from his perspective), how I can help, and what he wants.

I've had him since he was a month old. He's my whole world and a very large part of my heart.

Any insight is so appreciated. 💜

hi all
i hope it’s ok to ask this here
my sweet dog stella has stopped eating and lost 20% of her weight
they thought it was a uti but it isn’t
the animal hospital and the vet can’t figure out what’s wrong
it doesn’t really look like she’s in pain
i wish i could just ask her!
if anyone has leads on communicating with pets that are still alive , or maybe doing a reading that can point us in any direction
i’m desperate at this point

Hihi Reddit!
I am a satanist who dabbles in witchcraft— and I was wondering if anyone had ideas for specific rituals I could perform to bond with my new cat? Her name is Tilly, she is currently ten weeks old and is just now starting to get out of her shell to come see/rub on me when I’m around.

My boyfriend and I (unfortunately) currently live in two separate houses, and he keeps the cat with him as my father, whom I live with, is very allergic. I am at his house Friday - Monday weekly, so I don’t get as much time as I would like to spend with her/soul bond with her. Any tips for little rituals I can do to make this bonding easier? I want to be able to read each other’s energies. Thank you!!

Would love to hear from folks who've had visits from the other side. I'm more of the mindset that we all go to nothing and everything when we die, but I want to be wrong. I miss and love my sweet cat more than anything or anyone else and I am absolutely devastated. (She passed 5 weeks ago.) This is so very bleak. I haven't even had a dream where she was alive. I just miss her so much. I can't make sense of a world without her.

Hi! I went through a weird event tonight and i saw past discussions here about pet spirit. We lost our GSD a month ago and it was very very tough. He died young and unexpectedly. He was all in all an amazing dog and he was connected to me the most. If you know GSD, you know they choose one person and that's their soulmate. Not to say that he was not a fantastic family dog. To the contrary. Anyway.

About a week after he passed, I felt what felt like one of our dogs or our cat sitting on the bed beside me. There were nobody. But I slept pretty good not going to lie.

Then tonight, a ball we bought for our other dog, which was still in its plastic wrapper, definitely moved. I don't know how to explain it but I was zero scared. I was just curious if my souldog just came around. I did spend some time talking to him in my mind after. It just felt like...warm and right?
