The new year has started, you are in high spirits and feeling fierce as a tiger is. Suddenly, not everything is going as expected, one of your family members is in a delicate state and finally, on the first day of the year, she passes away. I am telling you about my doggy whose name was "Mía". I can't even write her name without a tear sliding down my cheek.
Our story started in the middle of the year 2021 when my sister mentioned that she was feeling a bit lonely and sad. So, she said that she wanted a pet. In the first place, my mom and I were not going along with the idea, but eventually we agreed. After that, the search for a little furry companion began. We went to an animal shelter and saw many beautiful creatures, from baby puppies to adult dogs. We heard their stories from the caregiver, including Mía's story. She had been rescued from the streets at the beginning of 2021. The problem was that she had been already of advanced age and also sick. We saw her, so brave and fragile at the same time; so loving and gentle. Internally we thought that this was her opportunity to feel true love, so after discussing it as a family we decided that we would give her a home and take care of her. A few weeks passed by and we adopted a baby dog whose name is "Maze". The family was then more than complete. We laughed together, we played together, we went for walks together. We were happy until Mía said goodbye to us.
Today, I still feel that emptiness and think to myself "I would have liked to give her a longer and better life." Despite those kinds of thoughts, I know that she was happy in the last stage of her life.
Thank you Mía for being part of my life.
I will always love you.
I am sure you gave her the best days of her life. I think one of the best things a person can do is to adopt an old animal (cat, dog, bunny...) because it's really difficult for them to find a home and I cannot imagine how happy they are when they are adopted. I want to thank you and your family for giving her a lot of love in her last days. She will be waiting for you over the rainbow.
ReplyDeleteI´m not crying, I´m not crying :´c well I´m actually crying because a few months ago my dog died and it was a horrible feeling. Our pets are part of our family and our lives, so it´s hard to say goodbye. Duffie (my pet) was my best friend and even though he´s not here, he will always be in my heart <3
