I had 2 of my "special" ones cremated. When I die and am cremated they and my ashes are to be mingled. We are meant to always be together!

I am so sorry. Losing an animal that you love so much, is like losing a friend. Think of the good times and the memories that you made with Lucy, smile when you can, but take time to grieve. Big hug, Blessings Jimeka πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—

I'm sorry for your loss.

As time goes on you will laugh about the things she did to make laugh and mad.

My family we do that all the time now when something comes up to remind us of our dog who died 22yrs ago. Sometimes it seem like she is still here because we keep finding things she hid through out the house.

We have marking all over the house from her.

The one thing we like to joke about is the food she stole and me having to sleep on the basement floor with her because of the thunder and that's where she wanted to be. We had snacks , tv, and she would lay in my arms like a baby under the sleeping bag. She would follow me all over the house til it was over then drop me like a bad habit for a couple of days because she was tired of me. I would have to ask her where is the love.

The worst part of having a pet is when they pass on.

Good wishes to you.

I am so very sorry about Lucy. I know the anguish that you feel; loosing a beloved member of ones family is heart wrenching.

Hopefully, one day soon, your grief will be replaced by the happy memories that you have of her.

The animals who live with us are more than pets, they are companions who hear our sighs, our laughter and see our stumbles, falls, and tears. Though their physical lives may end, they do live on in our memories and hearts...and so, a loved companion is always with us. Lucy is loved, so her spirit lives on.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is to lose a fur baby as I just went through that with my Sadie in December. I have said many times that I wish God would have given cats and dogs a longer life span. What has helped me get through the grieving process is knowing that even though they aren't here physically, we still have our memories. Prayers for you and your family.
