Hope you are having a wonderful time in Africa. where we were in Mexico they had Bengal Tigers which are endangered so they were breeding them. The first few days there were two cubs and then the bigger of the two was relocated but the little one provided much entertainment with his “kittenish” tricks. Moms are so long suffering!

Comment on My little pig, Monty… by Don & Linda Rutherford

Ben & Jose: Monty was just as much a part of our God’s awesome creation as everything and everyone else, and therefore his very existence was reason enough for you to love him the way you did. We never had the pleasure of his company, but feel for your loss and hope you will be surrounded by caring and loving friends who will help you find ways to smile and laugh again when Monty’s name pops up. God never put limits on who or what we should love, just gave us an enormous capacity to do so: we bet God loves him just as much as you! No guilt, no regrets, just deep breaths and the will to go on and keep on loving whoever, or whatever God sends your way!

Ben and Josie,
So sorry to hear of the loss of your pet Monty.Your eulogy undoubtly came straight from the heart and was a real tribute to him. Your experience was not unlike that of Jeff when he lost his beautiful dog Bull . Bull was part of our family and we all shared in the profound loss . It is unbeliveable the depth of the pain and grief that our pets can leave us with . My advice would be to throw away the guilt part though. You gave him a great life and how much better could have his death been, than to have died in your arms ? Time has a way of healing the pain and grief you feel and eventually the fond memories will take over .
Thinking of you both ,
Jan & Bob

Ben and Josee, we are so sad for your loss. The girls and I only met monty once but he left an adorable impression on us. the loss of a loved one whether four legged or two is always difficult, only time will heal.
Our love and prayers are with you both.

I would have liked to meet Monty. Unconventional, but really sweet.

I am so sad about your little Monty, I understand how sad this is for you two and he should have his bench and apple tree and a place you can remember him. Sorry for your loss, and I am sure you will feel a little lost without him for awhile.

Dear Ben and Josee,
We are so sorry to hear about Monty. We have tears in our eyes after reading this. The love that you have for him will always be a part of your heart wherever you go. I wish we could say something to make you both feel better, we are at a loss for words. Pets enrich our lives so much and when they are gone, it leaves a HUGE void. Know that he had the best life living with you guys, he thanks you for this!
Lots of love and hugs,
Erin,Rick,Rowan and Meisha xo

we are so sorry to hear of Monty’s death. Pets are such an integral part of our families. How lucky he was to have you and Josee in his life. Just think what he’ll tell all his friends about his time with you and your other four legged family! I think you’ve all been blessed.

Ben & Josee,

I am having a hard time writing because of tears. My heart hurts for you.
Monty was very fortunate to have you two in his life. Your other pets will miss him too.
May your sorrow lighten with time and become wonderful memories.

Dear Ben,

What a wonderful outpouring of love for Monty. We haven’t lost a pet yet that we haven’t asked the same questions which usually start with “if only”. Pets mean so much to us and are our children asking for so little and giving so much. They get into our hearts and souls almost without our knowing it. The loss of one of them hurts so much but we have had our lives enriched for knowing them. Our youngest cat to die was 11 months, our oldest over 19 years and each ending was just as hard and sad and the tears flowed copiously.

When a mink came into our pond several years ago and devoured my 50 fish I didn’t realize until that moment how fond I was of them…and they were “only” fish and I knew when they follow me along the edge of the pond it is only for food….but I did indeed love them.

I am sorry not to have met Monty in person but through your newsletters feel we “knew” him. Thank you for sharing him.
