Do I sound crazy?

Not crazy at all.

You don’t sound crazy at all. I’m glad you got such a peaceful sign. You gave him such a wonderful life.

[margarita]

It doesn't sound crazy at all. I'm glad he came to visit you.

[sofamonkey]

Sometimes your heart and your brain give you a little break. I’m glad
You got a little peace. ❤️

[penguingrrl]

Not crazy at all. You loved him and he loved you. He was letting you know he’s okay.

Not crazy at all.

My dog died unexpectedly yesterday. She had cancer, but was very young and otherwise healthy,and was having surgery to remove the tumor. But she died during the surgery. It was such a shock, and I'm a wreck. I woke up early this morning because I heard her footsteps on our floor. She had a very definitive prance. Our other dog, who sleeps like a log, heard it too. I think my pup was telling us she's still here in spirit, and it's ok. I'm still devastated, but I feel she knows we did all we could and she's ok now.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Dexter will always be with you, and he knows how well he was loved.

Not crazy at all. He was letting you know he loves yoi

Not crazy at all, he was telling you he's at peace.

I had a similar dream after my grandfather passed away. I feel like their spirits visit us in our dreams.

Not crazy at all!

When I had to put my 14 year old cat down, he was in rough shape. Thin, bent ear, lost the sheen to his fur, barely able to walk, etc. Shortly after, I had a dream that I walked out into the living room and he was laying on the floor and absolutely beautiful. Young, unbent ear, healthy; just the way I wanted to remember him. I truly believe he came back to tell me he was ok. Dexter is doing the same.

I've heard too many stories about things like this to think it's just coincidence. I also experienced some very unusual things after my cat Penny (who I was extremely attached to) died in 2016. Whether it's in your waking hours or in your dreams, I think our loved pets sometimes visit us after they pass. I'm glad he came to see you.

Not crazy.

I had a very vivid dream about beloved pedestal dog after he died. I still remember if after 8.5 years. I felt it was his way of saying goodbye and that he was at peace.

[turnipthebeet]

I think that sounds wonderful.

[mcsangel2]

And don't say that you feel like you shouldn't feel this way. I still sometimes have hard days. It just makes me feel better that she's not sick anymore and I would rather have her be at peace than with me and still suffering.

You don’t sound crazy at all. As adults, we spend more time with our pets than we do our parents, our siblings, our friends - they are part of the family, and it’s natural to grieve over the loss of them.

Personally, I believe that dream was Dexter telling you he is ok now.

[Champagne Supernova]

Awwwww Dexter. And no, you don't sound crazy at all. This happened to me as well when DH and I's first cat died. <3

[orangeblossom]

No, not at all.

[jennysmitten]

No not crazy. I have had that dream with both my beloved pets that I have lost. It is heartbreaking and incredibly comforting. I am so sorry caps.

[styme46]

Not crazy at all.

[meowmaps]

You are absolutely not crazy. What a lovely dream. I believe that Dexter was telling you he's OK, too.

[sapphireblue]

I think that dream was a wonderful gift.

Dexter wanted you to know how much he loves you and that he is happy wherever cat spirits end up.

[noodle]

Not crazy at all, and I agree this is Dexter’s way of telling you he is ok.

[winecat]

Absolutely not crazy. I had a similar dream two years after my beloved Persian died. I was going through a very sad time and I had the most vivid dream she was back. I just held her and she purred and purred and purred to comfort me like she did when she was alive. I remember saying "I'm going to need to take her back now." And then I woke up. It was so real. I don't really remember dreams either.

[lilafowler]

Not at all. ❤️

I had a dream about Dexter last night. We were sitting on the couch in our favorite spot and he was curled up in my lap. The windows were open and it was sunny and warm and I could hear birds outside, and we were just....sitting peacefully with each other, me petting him and him purring. It felt like it was hours we sat there. And I woke up and felt like he was telling me he was ok now. And goodbye.

I dunno. I feel...more peaceful today, maybe? Do I sound crazy? I spent the last two days sobbing on and off. I still miss him so much. But I dunno, the house doesn't feel so wrong today, I guess? It feels like I shouldn't feel like this.

You don't sound crazy at all.  I don't even know you and I knew how much you loved him.  He was letting you know he loves you too.  And that he is ok. I hope it gives you peace.  <3

I think that is so sweet, caps! Not crazy at all. My mom used to have dreams about her mom after she passed away. She said they would do ordinary things together (like cleaning) in the dreams but they were so GOOD because they were together.

I'm so glad you had so many years with your beautiful boy.

[lostrn]

Another vote for not crazy. It sounds like a lovely dream and visit.

[bronxgirl]

You certainly don't sound crazy. This may sound hokey, but I think your dream and how you feel now is beautiful. Hugs

[dexteroni]

Not crazy at all. And I know what you mean about feeling bad about kind of feeling ok. It's totally normal.
