I'm not a believer in heaven or afterlife or any of that. So can someone tell me why this makes me cry please? I've got three kitties waiting for me...

I don’t believe in the Pearly Gates or a Rainbow Bridge but I understand how loved some pets are and what a huge loss they are when they die.

I believe it was Saki who wrote a heart-breaking short story about the dogs waiting outside Paradise - they won't go in until their masters or mistresses come, as it couldn't be Heaven without them.

Don't read it, unless you need a good weep!

They do. I hope to be able to give a home to another rescue dog in time but none of them is ever replaced.
Thanks everyone.

What a beautiful photo. My boy is a very grumpy old BC but he is best friends with a beautiful goldie just like your photo Joseanne.
So sorry to hear about your girl GSM, it must be so hard without her.
They bring you such much love and comfort and ask nothing in return.

I am hoping to be reunited with my childhood doggie friend - I like to think he and my lovely cat are keeping each other company until the time I join them

So sorry GSM they leave a big gap in our lives and hearts. Eighteen months since our two boys died and I think of them every day. My daughter bought us some memorial wind chimes and its lovely to hear them and think of the boys.?

There is no friend like a dog - they weave themselves into our lives, and when they are gone there is a panful gaping wound. Anyone who has ever had the love of a dog will know this.

Sorry Ww2 ,too late,blubbing my eyes out.
I didn`t think for one minute you meant to upset anyone,but that`s how much we love and miss our pets and feel for those in the same situation.
Bless you.

Yes it is. Lost my dear girl five weeks ago today.

So many pets who made such a difference to our lives, it is comforting to think of them happily waiting for us.

? always makes me cry.

Callistemon21 Tue 03-May-22 21:07:44

Oh dear, I feel weepy now.

Joseanne Tue 03-May-22 21:06:31

You didn't make me sad for myself, I will be very happy to be greeted like that (if I am allowed in!).
I just felt sad for my dogs if you get my meaning.

Oh blimey. I didn’t want to make people sad!

Oh, it didn't...far from it.

Casdon Tue 03-May-22 20:41:31

There will be a menagerie waiting for me I hope, I hope the dogs and cats get on together though, I don’t want my current wild boy cocker spaniel chasing my childhood lovely boy cat.

Callistemon21 Tue 03-May-22 20:38:39

Hello - who's a good boy?

Where are my dogs?

I have a wonderful little meme that I bring out to comfort people whose dogs have just left for Heaven (where I hope I'll be allowed in and reunited for ever with all my myriad animals!).

It seems to be really comforting to other people as well as me.

Joseanne Tue 03-May-22 20:09:38

Sorry photo loading slow.

Joseanne Tue 03-May-22 20:09:13

Joseanne Tue 03-May-22 20:06:45

I have 4 of those very faces so far waiting for me. ?

Blondiescot Tue 03-May-22 20:05:33

If I believed in a heaven, that's how I would want it to look...

Grannyben Tue 03-May-22 20:02:38

I don't usually open these posts as I know they will make me cry. I open it and I cried at that beautiful little face. Just knew I would lol
