My old boy has just passed

[jesusmaryjosephandtheweedonkey]

He was 22. He died this evening at home with me.
He wrecked every soft furnishing I ever owned.
I'm heartbroken.
He was my trusty companion.
I loved him ver much .

So sorry. It's horrible when they go. They leave such a hole.

Oh I’m so sorry. Hugs

I'm so sorry. They break your heart don't they?

He was an amazing age wasn’t he? But it’s so hard when they go. You’ll miss him for a long while but it will get easier, I promise

22 is an incredible age - he must have seen you through so many life changes and experiences.

So very sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry. What a lifetime of love

So sorry. 22 is a fantastic age. My old boy is 19 and I am dreading that day

We are having him cremated and he can then go in his favourite spot in the garden.
Thanks for your kind words everyone

I am so sorry. It is always heartbreaking and it always comes too soon for us, even after 22 years - and that is a magnificent innings.

Look after yourself.

How sad for you. Twenty two years is an incredibly long life. So sorry for your huge loss

I'm so sorry OP

Might you show us a photo of your grand old gent? X

Sorry for your loss op.
We lost one of 2 db's last year....
A huge miss.

So sorry for your loss

Try to focus on the amazing life he would have had. I made a montage in one of those photo frames with lots of shapes cut out when my 18 year old boy passes. I find it comforting to see his little face looking out of the photos. My boy was buried in his favourite sunny spot in garden. Sorry for your loss.

22! That’s amazing, he must have loved being your boy so much to hang on for so long. I am so sorry though, they do leave such enormous physical and emotional holes.

RIPjesusmaryandjosephandtheweedonkeycat.

Sorry for your loss. 22 years is such a long time. A lovely idea to put him in his favourite spot. Take care.

We've just had our 20 year old PTS. Its heartbreaking. A huge part of the family for all this time. Much love... it's so difficult 💙
