Sending you so much love and so many hugs.xxxx
 
Thank you everyone ❤ Axel is pain free now 🌈❤🐾 and that gives me a lot of comfort. My friend from out of town actually showed up at the vet right as Axel’s heart stopped so she held me through that ❤ So thankful for her being there.

Just a bit of a sweet story. Gizmo was off being a cat somewhere in the house as I was getting ready to take Axel in. And then I was about to bend over to help Axel stand and I said ‘well, it’s time’ and as I was bending over, Gizmo ran in out of no where and walked right up to Axel’s nose, and Axel stretched his face to him, and they sniffed noses one last time 😭 it was like they knew they were saying goodbye ❤ Since I’ve been home Gizmo has been glued to me, following me everywhere, giving me all the extra love. He knows ❤

As I was doing my night routine before bed, the last thing I always did before going in my room was say ‘ok boogie, it’s bed time’ and that was Axel’s cue to run to the door to go outside and pee. And while… I didn’t say that tonight, I did ask Gizmo if he wanted to go outside for a quick pee… Gizmo is an indoor only cat 😔

I washed all my bedding tonight as I haven’t sleep in it for almost three weeks, I was going to try the other pillow, but I couldn’t, because that is Axel’s pillow. He slept like a human beside me every night for the first bit before getting comfy ❤ Maybe one day I will use it but for now. It stays beside my pillow.

I almost didn’t sleep in my bed tonight as I’ve never slept in my bed without Axel. But I realized there is a lot of comfort in that. He’s here with me right now snuggled in, I just know it ❤❤❤

I’ve also decided to leave Axel’s bed out where it’s always been. As gizmo always stole it 😂 so I know gizmo will appreciate having his scent and bed as a comfort. I’m also considering leaving Axel’s water dish out, Gizmo always drank out of Axel’s dish. That cat loved him so much, so I’m doing it for him ❤ And maybe a little me. I’ll smile one day instead of feeling nauseous when I see these items. In fact, I do feel comfort now seeing them.

Anyways, I am rambling. I will still come here and talk and I know I will especially over the next few weeks as I grieve. To even just talk about things like I just said. I know you all understand 🐾💕

One day I’ll get a puppy again. And as I said good bye to Axel, I told him no dog would ever replace him, he was my soulmate dog, but I told him I can’t wait to see him again in my future puppy, as I know parts of him will be in that puppy ❤
