Missing Mowglie
Tags:No tags
I was just going through all the Christmas stuff and found Mowglies ornament and stocking, it is so sad to have another year with out him here, It seems that Kenna still misses him she gets sad if she sees his collar or sniffs it (which hangs near the kennel she sleeps in).
When exactly does one get over a pet, exp…one who died the way he did….I think about him all the time and find myself calling Cowboy him then end up in tears after I realise Mowglie is not here.

Time heals all wounds! It never completely leaves your thoughts, instead it moves to a better place in your memories of him so that you will think of him fondly and treasure all the good times and things about him that made it worth having had him in your life at all. What a gift of memories they give us! As the saying goes, “Better to Have Loved and Lost - than Never to Have Loved At All!” Carm

I can understand your loss. I lost a very special cockatoo last year. Not a day goes by that I don’t mourn her, shed a few tears and thank God I had her in my life. I don’t think I will ever get over the loss of “Riley”, but it does get easier. I no longer sob or get depressed when I remember her. I can talk about her without crying, instead I smile and I think of all the wonderful days we shared.
You most likely will never “get over” Mowglie. You will however get through the pain of missing him. I wish I could say that in a few days, weeks, or months you’ll be dealing with this better, but I can’t. I will tell you that to heal you must open your heart and allow yourself to mourn. Don’t hold back the tears. Crying is how the soul cleanses itself. Welcome the tears. The healing will follow.
I wish you well on your journey to healing. There is no shame in mourning.
Bless you….

Bless you and I hope the memories always make you smile. I lost Snitzel 5 years ago and I still tear up when I think of him. But you know, h will always be in your heart, mind, in antics from Kenna…no escaping them. Think of the Rainbow Bridge. Feeling and believing in something is not bad. By the time our times have come, all of us here on the HDB will probably get mugged when we cross to get our little babies. Take care and enjoy who you have to hold right now and make those hugs for Mowgli.
Love n stuff,
