My beautiful ROCKY has died
44 Answers
Sorry to start a new question but it didn't feel right somehow to add this post to my original one.
I just wanted to let all of you know the tragic news that my baby has died.
A big thanks to everyone who cared about my baby enough to answer my original post. He passed away peacefully(i hope) at home. I feel so guilty because i had to pop out this afternoon and wasn't with him at the end.
I don't know what to do i just feel so lost, and to everyone who has had the joy of truly loving a pet will understand. I just hope and pray that he knew how much i loved him.
I feel blessed that i had 14 wonderful years with someone who i considered my best friend.
I have been told that he definately slippped away in his sleep. Which brings me a little comfort.
When i went out today i covered his cuddly toy in my moisturiser that i wear every day, so that he had my smell with him. Maybe he didn't want me to be there? This is something i'll never have the answer to.
The one thing that i do know to be true in my heart is that he died with respect, love and dignity and i couldn't have wished for better.
I have arranged for his cremation to take place tomorrow and i will have him back by the weekend. That way he will remain with me always.
I just hope that he is at peace, my baby, my best friend!
Love to you all Trudy and ROCKY R.I.PXXX I will miss him every day and will always carry him in my heart. I just can't believe he has gone.

Hello everybodyx
Rocky came home tonight at 8pm.
I got him back in a casket and i was given a beautiful card and poem. I had my Rocky's name and photograph put on a brass plate on top of the casket.
I know it sounds strange but i feel much better now that he is back home with me. I feel peace!
Nothing is ever going to take away the pain, but i have to move on.
I know in my heart that i will never ever get over losing my precious friend, i just know that it will get easier in time.
I love Rocky with all my heart and will honestly miss him every day. As i have said though in my earlier post, i firmly believe that we were meant to be, therefore we will meet again, hopefully.
Until that day comes and i hope it is a very long time yet, i will carry him in my heart always, my baby.
Thankyou for all your kindness and the love you have shown my Rocky and myself.
You will all be in my prayers.
God bless you all, take care.
All my love, Trudyxxx ( i can't miss him out) + Rockyxxx

hi Trudy glad that you now have him home again yes you will always miss him and the hurting never stops i suppose that is why a lot of us on here are so easily reduced to tears it brings our own hurt right up to the surface again in time you get used to it and keep it at the back until we get involved in a post like yours then up it comes i hope your children are coping and shep is not to distressed ,cassie has days when she seems quite miserable since we lost muppet our gsd who was nearly 14 i keep thinking about getting another dog but just dont feel right about it yet , sending you our love Ruth and Cassie (beagle)
Hiya Ruth,
My kids are coping well. My 9 year old daughter has been very upset but has accepted it now and she feels better that Rocky is back home so i'm glad.
My 5 year old daughter has cried but doesn't fully understand.
My 2 year old son has been asking for Rocky and kissing his photographs. Rocky always played in the garden with Jay so he is now wondering where his pal has gone.
I am just taking things day to day. I know it will get easier but i honestly don't feel like i'll ever get over it.
I miss him so much it's unreal.
Shep is coping okay as well. Rocky as you know was poorly for quite a while and because of that he got a little grumpy at times. Therefore i seperated Shep from Rocky quite a bit. If i'm honest I think it was partly because i knew that Rocky probably wasn't going to recover. That way the seperation progress had already begun a little bit.
Don't get me wrong they still saw plenty of each other, it was mainly at night.
I'll post again soon and keep you all updated.
Take care,
Lots of love Trudyxxx(+ Rocky)x

Trudy, how are you and the family today?
Its still very raw for you, but in time you will remember the happy times that you all had together. You will always miss him but it will get easier. We have all been there, or know how hard it will touch us when our pets time comes.
Take care. Love and hugs.

Hi Rosetta.
Thanks for thinking of me and Rocky today.
I just have to take things 1 day at a time. I just miss him so much. Eventually i know it will be easier but it is going to take a long time.
Everywhere i look in the house i can see and smell him. I have took to sleeping with his blanket because his smell is still strong on there.
I will always love my Rocky with all my heart and will never forget him.
Hopefully we'll meet again, i think we will.
Thanks again,
Love Trudy and familyxx

Ever since I first read your story I have been hugging my dear cat so tightly and telling him if we ever part we have to wait at the rainbow bridge for each other! I am like you, my cat knows all my secrets and is always there for me. If I am on here (Computer is in another room) he'll come and look for me as if to say 'where are you, you've been ages!' then he'll pester me until I come off. I don't know what I'll do without him. I feel for you so much - take care x
Hiya Ruth,
Sorry i didn't reply to your post. My 2 year old son Jay has been poorly with a chest infection as well as my 9 year old daughter Charlie. As you can guess i haven't had much time to myself.
Other than that we are okay. Shep is coping quite well now without Rocky, better than me i have to say.
I still think about him all the time, it's so hard, but i have comfort in the fact that he is home with me so that is a bonus.
How are you and Cassie today? Hope you are both well.
Speak to you soon.
Love Trudy and familyxxx

Hiya Ruth.
I'm so very sorry about your cats leg, you must be distraught. I am however happy that she is going to live.
What happened to her? Did she get hit by a car?
I know how you feel, it is just so hard because whatever happens is out of your control and you just end up feeling helpless.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all and i hope you have had good news this morning. I will keep my fingers crossed.
Love to you all, Trudy and familyxxx
