Having a beloved pet die is traumatic and painful, and the most natural thing in the world is to have intense feelings of grief and sadness. Our pets give us unconditional love, are always there to patiently listen to us when we need to talk, and are often our best friend.

When you love profoundly, you will mourn profoundly.When a treasured pet dies, you may find yourself going through a kind of mental gymnastics – most of which is just a feeble attempt at distracting you from what you’re desperately trying to avoid: the heavy and unbearable sadness of letting go of something so sweet, so precious, and so connected to you.

Cassey is a female Lhasa Apso, She is my buddy, my bestfriend, my heart and soul. A beautiful looking dog, I so love her unconditionally as I always tell her. She was born June 2, 2009 and died June 1, 2011. She's my sweet little princess, existed in our household, loved by our family, loves to play with Jake, Angelu, Papa and Louie. Very aloof with other dogs and choosing her playmate that makes her so "maarte", A very good mom to her sons, independent and has a discipline to herself as if like she's a trained dog --- she pee and poo inside the bathroom, very smart. She always wants herself to be groomed. She is irresistible! I just can't stop hugging that bundle of fun.

I am so devastated over her lost that no words can express what I am feeling.
She'd been with me for just two years but it's like ten long years or more and we had braved a lot of storms together. Her death had an incredible impact on my life and It's really hard for me to move on...

I'll miss her in my room especially in my bed 'cause we're sleeping together.
I'll miss her when I eat, she always want too have something too whenever I eat.
I'll miss her when I take a bath, she's always waiting for me outside of the bathroom.
I'll miss her greetings at the door everytime I get home by jumping over me telling me to hug and kiss her eyes as she lick my chicks.
I'll miss her in my car, laying her hear on the handbreak.
I'll miss her while facebooking, she's always underneath the table and licking my feet or laying her head on my feet.
I'll miss her when I go to serendra, eastwood and tiendesitas.
I'll miss to buy fab clothes for her.
I'll miss having quality time with her, just lying in my bed and cuddling her while telling her some stories or maybe problems.
I'll miss bathing her and making bubbles for her to pop.
I'll miss her everywhere inside the house.
I'll miss her wherever I go.

She is waiting for me and we will be together again. You'll always be in my heart.
Until we meet again baby...See you in my dreams!

Thank You Cassey! You brought great happiness and joy to our lives.

I LOVE YOU,
mommy

Until we meet again baby.

Letter from CASSEY

To my Dearest Mommy,

To have loved and then said farewell, is better than to have never loved at all.
For all of the times that you have stooped and touched my head,
fed me my favorite treat, kissing and hugging me, brought me to my favorite places like eastwood, tiendesitas and serendra and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you.
For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly.
For all of these things I am grateful and thankful.

I ask that you not grieve for the loss, but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each others lives.
My life was fuller because you were there, not as a master/owner, but as my BESTFRIEND and my MOMMY.

Today I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and
the Sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures.
I can run, jump, play and do all of the things that I did in my youth.
There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging.

We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever.
You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such as you are so rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself. Give it to another like me and then I will live forever.
For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.

Love,
Your Angel, your baby, your princess
CASSEY
