Sophie is gone:(

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Oh my gosh.... this cannot be true.....
My heart goes out to you. I know how hard it is to loose your sweety like this; it happened to me too wich our angel Sydney. He was allright when I left him at a dat-hotel for 3 weeks, and when we went to pick him back up afterwards, they tols us that he had died a few days ago.....

My deepest sympathy to you, dear Astrid

Dear Astrid, I am so sorry this happened. Sophie was a sweet girl and lived a lovely life with you. This helped build so many happy memories for you.

A family member can leave after lingering awhile, or can leave suddenly. This is true no matter if the family member is a human or a furkid. My Mum passed in less than 3 minutes, my Dad is coping with dementia, a long slow decline. My pets, well, I've dealt with both sudden and slow with my furkids as well. The sudden, fast illness is easiest on the departing member, hardest on those of us left behind. We have no warning, no time to prepare, just a whirlwind of activity in a very short time and then the bottom seems to drop out from under us.

There is shock and grief, and in time we learn to adapt to the change. Go easy and take care of yourself. We are all here for you.

I am so very sorry Astrid. Sweet Sophie was so loved by me and many of us on Pet Talk. She will be so very missed.

Sophie you took lots of love with you. You will be missed forever.
