He was a six year old Chihuahua mix. He had a bad fall and injured his spine. He couldn't use his hind legs and he was in a lot of pain, so I made the difficult decision to have him put to sleep. Poor baby. So, now I've lost two cats, my dog and my husband in the past nine months. And then COVID-19. I'm not having any fun right now. But I did start attending a great church. God and his people will carry me through all this.

I'm so sorry, Elaine! It's hard to lose a fur baby, especially from an accident. You have had so much heartache. I hope the new church and your faith will help you weather these tough times. Thinking of you today!

I am sad you have had another very difficult loss among too many others.

Great news about finding a church community you like.

elaine- I grieve with you for your loss. We can love our pets as deeply as we love out human family. It's been 2 years and I still can get choked up when I walk by my cats resting place. I will see you at the rainbow bridge. I do believe any creature we love as much as our fur babies are given entry to our eternal home.
