My Sweet Peanut
I had to say goodbye to Peanut last week and it hurts so much I can hardly write this post. She’s been fighting IBD since we brought her home. At first, her medications worked wonders, but slowly over time, they quit and we’ve had to try new ones. I knew it was bad when our vet referred us to a specialist and the chemo drug, she put her on didn’t work. She told me there was nothing else they could do.
I am so grateful for my time with her. She loved me with every inch of her little being. When you rescue a dog, I have no doubt they realize it.
Chelsea has been depressed and at first, she hardly ate. Grief is something we all go through when we say goodbye to a beloved pet. I’ve taken Chelsea for extra walks, given her extra love, and made sure she has lots of attention. Tweety won’t let her walk across the room without giving her head-butts. I captured this photo of Chelsea and Tweety together this week, looking out my studio window.
My sweet Peanut will be missed more than words can say. Hugs to all of you who have lost a beloved pet. You must know exactly how I feel.

I’m so sorry, Anne. We just lost our beloved kitty yesterday. It hurts so much. I’m glad you have Chelsea and Tweety to help with the sorrow.

Big hug from The Netherlands, we know exactly how you feel right now. Couple of months ago we experienced the same with our dog ❤️

Dearest Anne and family,
My heart aches for your aching heart. It is so brave to take in a rescue pet as they are usually older and not always in peak health and their time with you is less than a puppy or kitten. But YOU did! The love and care you all gave carries on beyond to the next life and I have no doubt they can bless our lives still from the other side.
Big hugs to the Sutton family. We love you so much and grieve with you 💖
