Anna shared on IG that Petunia has died; no further details given atm. 💔

Pet loss is the fucking worst. Animals should live happy & healthy lives forever tbh; they are way better than people. Give your furry friend extra cuddles today in honor

I feel like all the pets around me keep dying way too young. I had to put my cat down last summer and he was only 7, my cat before that only made it to 9, my friend's dog (also a Frenchie) passed away when she had just turned 4 a couple years ago, and my best friend just had to put down her 10 year old cat last week.

All of them had unexpected health issues that came out of nowhere and progressed really quickly (or in the case of my friend's dog, was instantly fatal). I know it's always a risk with pets, even with regular check up's, but it always feels so incredibly unfair when it happens. They're supposed to grow old and the hardest part is supposed to be deciding when it's time to say goodbye. I don't think I could ever get a brachycephalic breed (dog or cat) knowing that they were ticking time bombs of grief.

ugh, i'm so sorry to hear that. a few years back i watched a documentary called "pet fooled" and learned that there's a lot of shit in pet food these days that can contribute to health issues for our little fur friends that we didn't experience as much in the past. it's so fucked up, pets should live for so much longer than that 😔💔

I know how you feel. Lost two of my cats before they even hit the double digits but in the end, for our furbabies it was a lifetime they got to be with us and they were extremely grateful that we chose to take care of them.

So so sad when any good boy or girl passes.

I’ve had a lot of dogs that I loved very much so I’ve gone through the loss my fair share but boy it’s gonna be rough when my border collie is gone. I’ve never had such a strong connection with any pet, she even trained herself to be a psuedo-service dog when I first got sick. She’s only 6 but I think about it more than I should, I’ll be so lost without her by my side.

I lost my dog a year ago and it was the worst thing ever. I think it's especially hard when you lose the first animal you've had as an adult, especially if they go through a lot of life changes with you. Like, Petunia was adopted by her and John together, and there through their struggles, divorce and into her new life. It opens up all the grief from all those past life changes when you lose them.

aww my friends dog died earlier this month. im getting my sis in law to draw a little cartoon strip to memorialize him ;_;

I feel so bad for her. Just blow after blow the last few years.

I know she’s still a wealthy white lady and a lot of you seem to hate her for no reason but she’s been some hard fucking shit the last few years. It would break anyone down. I hope she has a good support system.

I feel bad for her too. I've read that she's been dating this New York chef recently so I hope he's been treating her the way she deserves.

[rosytintedflash]

good luck to her. dating fucking sucks after a big relationship in my experience lol. like... I almost quit.

would rather be alone with my cats most of the time tbh

i do too, but i feel like "new York chef" and "treats women well" never go together. 🥲
