Well, today was the day. Kiwi went peacefully with myself and my wife there with her. She's in a better place and I couldn't be more grateful for having her be a part of my life.

Thank you for all the kind words and my heart goes out to everyone that has gone through this.

Maybe this thread can stay around, but not necessarily as a remembrance of pets folks have lost. love seeing pics of other peoples' pets, whether they're still with us or not. The water cooler could use a little more lightheartedness.

I don't have the words, other than my thoughts go out to you and your wife. We had to put our dog down about 8 years ago. It was very hard, at the time the girlfriend and I, ( now wife ) got the dog at the SPCA. She was apart of our life from the beginning, and in some ways went through everything we did as the wife and I got our lives going. Our current dog is getting older and is also a part of our lives.

So sorry that you had to go through this. Thank you so much for sharing her picture and her story with us. Her image that you posted here and the love that you and your family had for her will always be with those of us here that read your story... as will the thoughts of all the other beloved animals that were mentioned here by others.

I can't even begin to imagine what it will be like for my wife and I whenever it is time for Charlie to go.
