This is Peaches (lemmy.world)

We had to say goodbye to our sweet baby this past weekend. I've been tearing myself up over her while looking through all my pictures and videos.

I just wanted to share her somewhere so that she may reach just a few more people with her cuteness.

Edit: I'll add my blurb I wrote about her on other social media:

I wanted to share a little someone that has touched my life so thoroughly that it has made this goodbye that much harder.

This is Peaches and we had to make the heaviest of decisions to rapidly say goodbye this past weekend as her kidneys were failing.

This little potato's roots were wrapped so deeply around my heart that uprooting them will forever leave a hole the shape of a loaf of bread with ears and a tail.

I have already spent so many hurtful (but joyful) hours finding all the photos and videos I had of her, reminiscing about her nervous panting, her anxious yelping, her snoring, her side eyeing, her 'urf'ing, and her butt scratching dance (which I think is why she warmed up to me so quickly).

It has been incredibly difficult trying to pare down to a select few photos to share because I really just wanted to upload all 300+ (I'll still probably create an album on Facebook). I also didn't realize I took so many, though now that she's gone, it will never be enough.

I hope that wherever she is now, someone remembers to give her butt scritches and she gets her treats at 7:00 (don't worry, she will be sure to remind you).

Until we see you again, we love you with all of our hearts and you are the goodest of girls. We already miss you so much, our 🎶 Sweet Lovely Beautiful Peaches 🎶

What a sweetheart! She looks like such a snuggly sausage, especially the bottom right. What was your favourite habit of hers?

[–] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thank you, she's definitely a sweetheart.

Too many habits to choose from but I added some more words I wrote about her elsewhere touching on some of her habits.

I am so sorry for your loss. Peaches looks similar to our Wally, though he’s still a young dude I know the day will come. Please try to hold onto the simple fact that her life was awesome because she had you. It sucks having to go on without them but I’ve always tried to focus on the gratitude for getting to be there from the start to the end for them, and that they won’t have to suffer the loss of us.

RIP Peaches, you fortunate angel.
