- Many of us have visits from our beloved pets after their passing. Join Nancy Saxton-Lopez and Ken Dolan-Del Vecchio on Thurs 1/21 at 6PM ET for a conversation about this common experience. We'll share personal anecdotes, accounts we've heard from others, and our thoughts about what it all means. Send us your own stories, thoughts, and questions.
im sure i speak for many people when i say im not suicidal but the sentiment is "I dont want to live without my pet" the FEELING of not wanting to live is here...yet not suicidal or anything. its like being trapped in a zombie like state.
Grief often feels like an altered state as you describe. I'm sorry to hear that you're heart hurts so much at present. Sending kind thoughts.
I know right now how you feel. God bless.x
Indeed I am mourning my dear Squirrel Dog, she was my heart and we were inseparable for 6 and a half blessed years in this physical form together. May we meet again my sweet angel
@@cultivatevitality6923“she was my heart“ - so was he mine. It feels like a vakuum in my chest, sucking me in
I feel exactly the same and only carry on in the hope my baby will come back in another dog body xx
everyday I wake up with the realization that I have to live the rest of my life without her. She was my kitty whom I had since I was a child, and moved with me as an adult. It's been months, and although the pain is less (it was the worst loss of my life) that emptiness never seems to go away, I miss her constantly. I feel like I've lost a part of my soul.
So sorry for your loss.
I lost my cat / best buddy Murray nearly two weeks ago. I have had lots of pets over my 58 years but he was the only one, animal or human, that I ever felt such a strong spiritual connection to and it was instantaniuos the first time I laid eyes on him. He was struck down at the very young age of five years, four of which he was with me, and it was the best four years of my life. All though I will eventually learn to live with loss, I dont believe I will ever get over it. The only solace I have been able to find thus far is the knowledge that God is Good, and when I arrive in Heaven, he will be the first one I look for. God bless all those struggling with a broken heart over the loss of a best friend.
A couple of years ago, after the passing of my deeply loved Sophie dog, I was in a complete daze, and needed to walk through the neighborhood to try to calm my heart. A few blocks from my house, a little bird landed about 10 feet in front of me, and did a little wiggle-tail dance, then flew away. I took it as a sign from Sophie, as she was a major wiggle-butt. A couple of days later, I wrote an email to my old roommate who lived with me and Sophie for a couple of years. The next day, I received his response. He told me that the night before he received my email, he had a dream that he was flying a few feet above the ground. He noted specifically that he was heading SOUTH, until he came to a specific place. He included the exact place on a Google Maps link. He knew he was there to take Sophie to play. That spot was was one block SOUTH of where I saw the bird. I hadn’t told him the bird story, so I took this as a confirmation of my sign.🌈
I yearn to receive a sign from my baby boy. He passed 3 weeks ago. The pain is almost as bad as when I lost my beloved mother. I'm sure she's taking care of him x
My cat lost his battle with cancer this morning, I’m devastated honestly
Sorry for your loss.
Some years ago when our adopted Siamese was put to sleep (she had heart and lung problems) about three weeks after I had the most beautiful full colour dream about her ( Anna) it was so lovely to see her again just for that moment and to know she resting and healing, Im not religious but I give thanks for that. God bless every one who is stuck in their pain and grief and I pray you do get a sign. God bless.x
Thanks for sharing this wonderful story.
I dreamed of our baby girl tish this morning, but then I realised it was just a dream so feel very sad again now today. Dream didn't make much sense as it was at our old house not here. It's better than nothing I suppose.x
Dear Sir, When you said your dream was a message that your dog was on the other side resting and healing, I thought I would let you know that shortly after I lost my cat to cancer, she came to me in a dream. I dreamt that angels, of a sort, brought my cat to me. They were in the white coats doctors wear. There were two or three or more of them holding my cat at their waist height and that part of their body was all I saw. They held my cat showed me she was in the process of healing and that her tumors were shrinking.
This dream was a real comfort.
yes i felt and heard a cat jump up on my bed and i told my mom the next day and she said same happened to her the same night...(different house) it brought me comfort and joy for a day but im back to intense grief
Thanks for your comments. I'm sending wishes for your peace and solace. It can be so very hard when we lose our beloved animal companions. And many people, including me, have felt their presence nearby.
I just stumbled upon this UA-cam video. Many years ago probably back in the 90s my very first pet it's a beautiful gray cat. I moved to the US Virgin Islands and brought her with me. Long story short she developed a tumor in the mail but I had to put her down I was devastated because that cat was my best friend while I was severely ill being stuck at home bedridden not being able to really socialize people. As soon as I got home from the vet putting her down I lay down on my bed and was staring at the ceiling fan. I was wide awake. She appeared to me she looks healthy but she was translucent like I could put my hand right through her. I had the most incredible calming peaceful feeling like she was telling me she was okay. And then she disappeared the next morning I heard the thump on my bed which is exactly what she would do every morning to wake me up to feed her. Of course she wasn't there but it was definitely a bump on my bed like she was jumping up on it. So I do believe there's an afterlife especially For Pets
Thanks for sharing your story!
I have 2 dogs and when they go and then I go, I hope were together in heaven. Walking them through the hills and valleys of Donegal in the north west of Ireland, about 2 hours drive away from me, beside Derry. That's what I hope heaven is, hills and valleys, instead of metropolitan cities. I think the country side is personally a better Environment to live in and to work in and to of course ,walk your dogs in. Metropolitan cities are beat out now for me!.
I lost my cat Billu a few days ago and feeling devastated. He was everything for me , my companion , my soulmate. I'm wondering if someone could recommend a reliable animal communicator and a pet bereavement group please.
This video was extremely useful. Many thanks
You're welcome. I don't have a communicator to recommend but I can recommend the cost-free zoom pet loss support group that I facilitate monthly. It will take place at 6pm today and you can rsvp ( get the zoom.link) @ dakinhumane.org/petloss.
Try susie shiner
Best wishes
i am upset animal communicators keep saying its impossible they reincarnate into another pet..... i need to believe he will come back..him himself,not a lookalike. im too upset if i dont get him back.
I have not heard animal communicators say that. I don't think it's reasonable to say "impossible" in this realm as there is so much that we cannot be certain of.
I learned after losing my dogfrom her she has come back to be with me all my life. They do come back in different bodies
Yes I feel the same and that is not true. I believe it is Mc Kinnon who says that, I stopped listening to her after that! Nothing impossible as long as love is there anything can happen in divine timing
Of course they can reincarnate!
Your answer is actually in your question, the KIND MAN type. One that is capable of loving deeply.
all angels were created, no more from that point on. The soul that went to Heaven couldn't say "I am an angel" Once dead, the soul goes to somewhere, but it remains a soul, it doesn't get a promotion. Nobody just knows things. that 'go-between' had a familiar. BAD STUFF, evil lurks.
So you have died and went to the other side really
What kind of man goes to a support group for a long time because his cat died?
The kind of man who's smart enough to know the value of social support and strong enough to not care about old stereotypes about what a man is supposed to do and not do.
animals are truer friends than human friends or family. theres no judgement, or ego, just pure love. to some people, that is all they have. it could be that they were abused as kids and no longer have family connections, it could be that they struggle with human connection, but that animal is there to give them comfort. If that animal is someone's source of love and connection.... can't you imagine how big of a loss that could be for someone?
I wish I had pet loss grief support groups in my country. Don't judge the grief you haven't felt.
What a heartless comment
You don’t know what true love is. Understandable.
Yes pets do go to heaven I believe this they wait for for us over rainbow bridge 🌉 and the lord spends time with them and plays with them a man had a after life experience and he saw his pet
Too slow moving
