Believe me this worked for me. Did you bring back a blanket with Charlies scent. They need to smell that he is gone and even if you still have the shirt you wore let them smell. Good Luck I know it hurts for them and you. Im so sorry..... |
I did let them smell my shirt, the towels and bed. Sam rolled around on it for a while and whimpered. I will switch up their routines to see if that helps. Thank you.

I am sorry for your loss. Sending you *hugs* Time will heal your wounds. |
I didnt do it here bc I didnt want that memory here, it was hard enough there. Hopefully the smelling will help. Thank you

Thank you, I hope so.
