Saying goodbye

Today was a bittersweet day. I had to send my Mule Jr to a new home. After being born on my place and living here for almost 12yrs I can't keep him on my property anymore. he is jumping my fence to go visit some horses several properties over. He was my baby boy and I will miss him. My heart is broken but the person who took him is like family and I can visit whenever I want.

... Read moreSaying goodbye to a cherished pet can be one of life's most challenging experiences. As pet owners, we often develop deep emotional bonds with our animals, making the parting a heart-wrenching process. Experts suggest ways to cope with the sadness, emphasizing the importance of cherishing memories and understanding that our pets deserve the best possible life. When rehoming a pet, it's crucial to ensure they go to a loving and suitable environment. This not only helps alleviate the owner's guilt but also ensures the animal continues to thrive. Keeping in touch with their new family can offer comfort, knowing that they're still cared for. Remember, it's okay to grieve, and seeking support from friends, family, or communities that understand your loss can be incredibly beneficial. Every goodbye can also lead to new beginnings, whether for the pet or the owner, making room for healing and growth.

Are we saying goodbye lemon8?
Merging with tiktok is going to be an extreme change… I’m not sure if it will be good or bad. I’m also wondering if the page layout will be different. I hope not too much change because we love this app and how peaceful it is! It’s like our own personal diary with each other. #change #love

Last night I had to put my 6 year old guinea pig Brindle to rest. He had a tumor that was too big to save him. I do not have words to describe how wonderful he was. There are no words that can express how kind he was. He was not a normal Guinea pig at all, I’ve had three others and no one comes clo
