I'm so sorry for the loss of your furbabies. You need the time to deal with the loss. They were very much your family and your kids. Don't put a time limit on your grief. We all need different lengths of time. You've gotten some really good ideas in other posts on how to handle things. Do what's best in the long run. And don't worry about what other people think . Do what's best for you.

You will recover. Food will not solve anything, though, so be kind to yourself and get back on track. You have to love yourself enough to take care of your health.

I lost both of my beloved pets in the last year. My dog, Gaby was 16, and my cat Jezebel was 18. They were my babies long before I had my kids. Both losses were devastating. But when my mom was diagnosed this month with stage 4 cancer, it put things in perspective and made me realize I need to figure out how to get past their deaths and focus on my mom and my family.

Cancer is a scourge whether it attacks our human loved ones or furry ones. My family's last 3 dogs have been lost to cancer too young. I can't imagine the pain of losing two in such a short window! I'm so very sorry for your losses.

Nothing I could say will help. I just am sincerely sorry for your losses.

I am so very sorry. I don't have any words of wisdom, except to say I am sorry. I don't have any children, so my animals have always been my world. I know it hurts right now, be kind to yourself.

So sorry for your loss. Just remember it gets better. When I lost my Husband I had to just keep trudging along. The waves of grief start coming less often and it becomes easier to deal with as I accept what has happened.

I am crying with you. To lose both so close together is a cruel tragedy. All kinds of "words of comfort" come to mind but I know they won't help. Just know that my heart aches with you and I hope it eases your heart somewhat to know how many of us are here to hold you up through this.

So sorry to hear of your further loss, the animals we share our lives with bring us such unconditional love and the loss of one, is so deeply felt I can't imagine your sorrow at having your other dog taken from you too.

Take time to grieve and try find someone to support you in your grief.

I am so sorry. As an animal lover I can relate. I lost my cat last year and I still miss her terribly. We adopted another whom I love dearly but she is still missed sorely. I talk to her sometimes and tell her I miss her, love her and somehow it helps!I too have always adopted rescue and a coupled abused cats and dogs like little bill jr. They are the best!
