i had a dog that was 14 in human years and she was a golden retriever, but we had to put her down... she was the oldest pet i had. The second oldest one was a 7-year-old 6-foot-long iguana named betty. She was amazing. Sorry i don't have any pics...

We have 4 dogs but the oldest is a sable Pomeranian my parents got me for Christmas in 1993. She turns 13 on October 15 :cheer:
Still in pretty good health and very active but i worry if this might be the last birthday we have with her

I know everyone says this about their pet but she really is the greatest dog thats ever lived, lol. She literally has NEVER, not once gone to the bathroom in the house, doesnt chew things, incredibly loyal, loves tocuddle and kiss, incredible with the kids. Everything you could ever want in a dog

Only downside, like all Poms.... She is a YAPPER!
I'll try to post a pic tonight

My 18 year old cat just passed away last month... she had survived numerous close encounters with foxes, coyotes, Greta Horned Owls, and raccoons.
She couldn't beat old age though.

My 21 year old cat died last year. That hurt, she came with me everytime I moved and I had her since I was 7. We raised her from birth because she was the runt of the litter. I miss her so much. People used to come over that I hadn't seen in years and say, OH MY GOD IS THAT THE SAME CAT?? It's sad because we get so attached to our pets and the unconditional love they give you is so missed once they pass on.

They do become family members so quickly.
These are such amazing ages! Just think about it. Not only living your life, but, wow, :happyfish (or cat or dog or bird) also providing for these little creatures.
I think it's awesome.

I'm so sorry to hear that... I have a 15 year old cat, Felix... I will be so, so, so... sad... when he 'goes'.
I can't remember life without him...

My mom got a german sheppard puppy when I was 1 year old. We had to put her down when I was 15 due to internal bleeding and some tumors.
I was devastated. Everyday when I came home from school I kept expecting her to come to greet me.....it was very hard to deal with.
