Remembering The Good Times, What are some fond memories of your pet? Options

[crystal0]

After I lost my almost 14-year-old dog, Touch, last month, I was able to go to my local humane society's pet loss support group a couple times. At the end of each session, we would take turns sharing a fond memory about our pet. I thought it would be nice to hear what special memories everyone here has as well.

For me, everytime I sat cross-legged on the floor in the living room, Touch would see me from the kitchen and automatically come to me. Then, he would lay down, resting his right side of his face on my left leg. It was always this way. And everytime I got up and moved a few feet and sat down cross-legged again, he would follow and lay his head on my leg. It was just a cute, loving action that Touch would show, and I will always remember it.

What are some special memories of your pet?

I recently lost my baby girl, Niko, after complications from her pregnancy. I am still grieving and really depressed most of the time. But, I am able to look at her pictures and remember the good times with less tears.

One of my best memories of Niko was going absolutely everywhere together, we were inseperable. Shortly before she passed we went on a trip from Wyoming to South Dakota and she really loved that "us" time. She was always so excited to go "bye bye". I didn't even have to say it anymore, I just had to look at her then at the door and she turned into a maniac. The other thing I always try to remember is that Niko was always smiling. And she loved to sit on my tub with me whenever I took a bath.

I have many, many more good memories of my Niko, but we would be here all night. Thank you for giving me the chance to look back at our good times. I feel better.
