Cupid’s Goodbye to Benjamin

Cupid’s Goodbye to Benjamin
As most of you may know, Benjamin and Cupid were the 2 fur babies in the house that were the least amicable. Their relationship didn't meet the whole philosophy of "fighting like cats & dogs" but Benjamin was just all too curious about Cupid. And Cupid knows that curiosity is HER job (even though they say, curiosity killed her kind). But Baby Benny just wanted one good sniff of that kitty cat tukhus. And Cupid just would never allow that to happen.
Benjamin, with his never give up attitude, well, he never gave up. He was always chasing kitty tush. Just one good sniff, QP! Just one, good sniff....
Well, now Cupid is getting what Benny never could. She is getting that one good sniff. At the same time, she is paying her last respects. You see, Benny was cremated and they sent him back to our vet in a cedar box. (As seen last week, we had our own urn that we preferred for him.) So, after the ashes were transferred from the cedar box to the metal urn, we were left with an empty cedar box.
You can see in the video that Cupid is not only getting the last word in (as cats tend to like to do) but she is finally showing the love for Benny that he rightfully deserved (but that he could never sit still long enough for Cupid to show). And she gets in HER infamous good sniff.

This is absolutely amazing. Love…
Cupid knows that Bennie was in there. God Bless our fur babies. They are not given enough credit for how smart they are.
This is such a touching video! My heart aches for ALL of you! Please know that thoughts and prayers anound.
That is unbelievably amazing!! She loved her bro!! And he’s grinning at her from the bridge!!
this is so touching such love
Oh Cupid-what a loving tribute to Baby Benny, Benny knows how much you loved him and he loved you.Pug hugs to the OBP family & friends from pastor sue & the Colorado 2
That is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen. Cupid did love Benny.
Aww, that is so touching.
Tears flow as Cupid pays her respects to Benny. She knows there are still some of Baby Benny in there. I wish “experts” would acknowledge that animals are sooo much smarter than they are given credit for. They have the most profound feelings that a lot of humans should have.
Hopefully one of these days everyone will come to terms with Benny. He will always be in everyone’s hearts and never be forgotten.
It is amazing how sad I am and how much I miss that little character even though I never physically met him or spent any time with him. If I feel this great loss, how much harder it has to be on the OBP household.

God bless Cupid! That is so touching ♥
The OBP family shows us again how to handle a very sad situation with love and caring.
You are all in our hearts and prayers.
This is just too precious. I don’t know what to say.
Amazing, and touching xo
I’m so sorry.
If Nancy is watching, I’m sure she shares my grief at the death of Benny. I got to know the Pugs in your family at OBP and Benny was one of my very favorite boys.
Since I am sort of on the outside looking in, I really don’t know what else to say, but my condolences are sent to every one of you at OBP, as well as my thanks for the tremendous service you provide through the marvelous pictures and stories about all the members
of the OBP family, not to mention all of the helpful answers to questions about things that Pug owners need to know. You folks are fantastic.
I send everyone all of the sympathy and love I have for each of you and I’m very sure that Nancy has just posted something that will come by celestial messengers and there will be no postage required.
Sincerely,
Brian
I’ll be back with an update on the Ohio Pugs in a few days.
Brian,
I hate that you feel like you’re on the “outside looking in”. As much as Nancy was a much loved and accepted member of the OBP Family, I believe you are every bit as loved and accepted as she was, and you ought to have a “celestial message” to that effect any time now. I mean that, it’s no pun. As much as I have no right to speak for anyone but myself, I feel some degree of confidence that I’m not going too far out on a limb by saying that. If I’ve stepped on anybody’s toes I apologize, but that’s just the way I feel. Also I don’t believe anyone has ever hinted that you are an “outsider”.
Hi Brian, Steve is right on-you are not an outsider-you are very much a family member. Hope to hear how the gang is doing soon. Pug hugs from pastor sue & the Colorado 2
