Iā€™m so sorry for your loss, my deepest condolences goes to you, your husband and your fids.

You know that Venus was very loved and was in a very good home.

Tracey, Iā€™m so sorry. Iā€™m sad for you. You really, really tried with Venus, and you did all you could do. Itā€™ll take time to fill the hole in your hearts and be able to smile at the good memories of your little morning coffee buddy. Hang in there. Youā€™re such a wonderful animal mom. Big hugs.

I am so sorry for your loss. The bigger our hearts are the more painful it is. I had a parakeet lured down from the top of the bedroom door by my cat and I came home to find feathers leading to her. How can we possibly avert every accident given that they can occur within split second. I won't barage you with my personal faith, but I can tell you Venus is in a peaceful state with no pain whatsoever watching over you; I believe this and have had my own evidence since my parrot's death.

Hi All, I'm re-hashing my loss with Venus. I miss her so much. I have Buddy my 27 yo Mexican Red Head, he loves head scritches, he gets a lot of head scritches. I also have Buzz my 5 yo African Gray, he isn't lovey dovey.

My Venus was my buddy, she snuggled with me, was right there with me, she tried to dip in my coffee, i made her cups of veggies and fruit to dive into while I sipped my coffee.

I am missing her so much. Since she passed I have spent many mornings staring at where we laid her to rest. Venus was so special.

Know how you feel Tracey.Every once in a while I look out in our yard and see the boulder over my little Maxie's grave. You remember Venus so fondly, I'm sure you always will.

Some things take more time than others. A loving companion is a harder loss than any kind of money or possession. If it helps, remember that the pain is there because good memories are there, and those can never be taken away. The love you shared together may not be shared any more, but it is part of you now and forever. It was real, and it is still real in your memory, and it will always be real. The pain is real, but it will get better. I think it is right and proper that we grieve for our loved ones. That grief is the price of love, and we will all pay it some day. I'm sorry you have to pay it now, but I'm glad you had the love you bought with it.
