6. 🖼️ My Zeusy left to wait at the rainbow bridge this morning 💔 (direct link) (👍371 👎7)

from Dogs (!dogs@lemmy.world)

Zeus, rescued from a shelter during COVID, quickly became our sweet, gentle companion. He loved cuddles at home, park walks, and even snuggling my belly during pregnancy. When tumors plagued him and he stopped eating, we chose euthanasia at home. He spent last days with family, stories, and hugs. Rest in peace, best boy and big brother. 🖍🤖

Great Lakes region, USA. April 2026.
Finally a decent day in the 50°F range. A ton of birds are back and the insects are out. My first butterfly of the year is a beautiful Compton Tortoiseshell perfectly matching its environment. I’m so stoked for spring!
