Still have them tucked away in my Stan box ... I have his coat his blanket leads collars his toys 🧸... all tucked in I open it daily and breathe him in does that sound sad makes him feel close... sorry I'm having not such a good day today xx

Not sad, but a large dose of oxygen intake to give you that wrap-around Stan embrace. Maybe Stan's way of saying 'I still love you."

It's my way of loving him right back πŸ₯°

What a beautiful portrait and so fitting that it was from his favourite beach. What wonderful memories. It was so sad when you told us about Stan, as it hits home to anyone who's ever had a pet in their lives - very much a pert of the family and so dearly loved. Now you have your little miss Sunshine to keep you on your toes with many happy years to make more wonderful memories.

Love and hugs to you both 🧑 πŸ€—

Jackie and Jasper 🐾 xx
