Having had to make a similar decision just a few months ago, I know how your heart aches Lateeda. I'm so very sorry for your loss. It is clear that Buck Ann was truly loved and could not have had better care. My thoughts and prayers are with you and DH.

Biscotti, belated but no less sincere sympathy on the loss of Thelma & Louise. I hope that knowing they are with John again gives you some comfort. My thoughts are with you.

Buck-Ann Oh Lateeda, I know how hard it it is to have to say goodbye to an old friend. I hope your scrapbook and shared memories will give you some comfort and remind you of all the happy times and love you shared. Your memorial post made me smile and get misty-eyed at the same time. My sympathy to your DH and Harley as well.

{{{{Biscotti}}}} So sorry for your loss. But what a lovely story you shared with us. {{{{Lateeda}}}} Not much more can be said. Just know lots of us have been there/done that. This thread was started in fact when I lost my dear boy Boomer over two years ago. I have to admit sometimes I avoid this thread cause I don't know if I can take the sadness. That's so wrong, especially after the incredible support other showed me when Boomer passed. That's why my condolences to the recent losses are so late.

Just stopped in to re-read everything... My DD and I sat up last night remembering all the fun, cool, things that Buck-Ann either did or how she reacted to the other animals w/perfect amount of disdain and amusement. Harley - kitty #2 - has been very clingy and very vocal recently, starting about 3 days after Buck-Ann left us. He is now the recipient of much extra love and attention from me and all the kids. He's definitley not complaining, but he can be overly pushy when he wants to be in my business, LOL. I'm just going to enjoy him, knowing how quickly the time we have w/our pets passes. Thanks again to all for your words of comfort.

July 13, 1985 was Casper's birthday. I still miss her everyday even though she's been gone for 3½ years now.

A year ago today, I had to put my baby boy to sleep....it hurt like hell then and the memory hurts like hell now. From all of this pain, I've grown closer to his brother, which I never thought would happen. That's life, I guess. Those that have pets, please cherish and love them, 'cause you never know how long you'll have with them. (RIP David Pierce Hall-Watson, 'D.P.'; 1992-2006)....I miss you, Monkey.

Cammy was my childhood dog, a Welsh Corgi. Psycho was my first cat (so named before I realized all cats were a little crazy). Spats was my bestest kitty friend for over 17 years; she hasn't been gone a year yet.

my buffy has been gone since 1989. she was a cream standard poodle. she was born in 1977. i was in high school. and no matter what, she was the best friend i've ever had in my life. she was always happy to see me, slept on my bed every night. watched tv with me. went with me wherever i went. and i hadn't thought of her in a bit, but today i did. i can't wait for the day i'm joined up with her. i know what you mean SBG. big hugs to you hon. and to all of use who have friends over the rainbow bridge, much love!

As a kid we had 5 dogs over the years: Shotsy, Shimmy, Shasta, Ebony & Charlie. They all lived verey long lives - Shim made it to 16! She looked just like the dog in the 'Our Gang' movies, except she didn't have the black circle around her eye - so I drew one on her w/a magic marker. Dad was not please! LOL I was only 10 and thought it would be a good thing...I was wrong...LOL. My first dog all on my own was Cubby. What an amazing dog. DH and I still talk about her - she set the bar pretty high, which the two hounds we have now sadly do not equal one Cubby, LOL. We do love Buffy & Woody, they just aren't as 'bright' or as well-behaved as Cubby. Cubby passed in June of '01 at only 10 yrs old. The vet misdiagnosed her - told us she had hip dysplasia and gave us meds and a prescription. Turns out she had a tumor in her stomach that by the time it was caught, it had bled through her tummy wall/lining and she had to be put down. Still upset about how that whole time went down w/taking her in 5 times - emergency and Sat. appts, paying several hundred $$$ for meds, and the vet never took one x-ray until I finally saw a new vet and they were SO good and thorough...however it was too late.

As sad as I'm sure his passing was, just think of the party his buds at the Bridge are throwing today to celebrate his first anniversary there with them.
