Has your pet contacted you in a dream after passing away?

[Dennq]

All three of my dogs that have died have contacted me in a dream about a month after passing away. Its a very strange and surreal kind of dream that is like no other. You dont ever forget them.

I am always crying in my dream because I am so happy to see them and I keep calling them back to me and they leave; basically saying they are ok.

The first dog that passed was alone, the second dog that passed was with the first dog and the third dog that passed, well they were all together.

I always awake in tears after these dreams but Im so happy to have seen them. I only ever have one dream for each dog. I never have this kind of a dream about them ever again. This also happened with both my parents too.

Has anyone else had these type of experiences or did I fall of of my motorcycle too many times

I too have had this kind of dream. 11 years ago I had to put my heart dog sampson down and that night I remember just wanting to see him and hold him one more time. I finally got to sleep and he came to me. It was so real in that I could touch him and even smell him. He was trying to comfort me. I suffered very badly after his death and even now just typing this is killing me but I just wanted you to know that you are not alone. I know its been 11 years but man oh man it still hurts.

I have dreamt about both of my pets about 1 month after they were gone.

My cat was outside meowing at the sliding door to get in (never let him out).

An my dog was swimming in Tobermory - never could get her to go into the water.

They were both strange dreams and I did wake up crying.

Not quite the same... I lost a young dog to cancer that I was VERY attached to. I had his picture on my night stand. One night the picture fell off the night stand... an hour later my sister called me to tell me our mother had passed. To me it felt like he was letting me know he had found her. It was a comfort.

This story just gave me goose bumps.

I dreamt of Omy very often and still do at times. The first dream was that she was alive but someone else had her- I found out where she was and there was a man taking care of all these dogs that were happy and healthy, having fun. I told him Omy was mine and he said I couldn't have her back but she would have a great life there. When I woke up I thought I had to go find that guy and buy her back, it seemed so real. Guess she was in doggie heaven. I would hear her tags jingle in the night for a long time. I still miss her desperately. But my new pups have each worn her old red leather puppy collar and have found some of her toys she had stashed around the property- as though she left them for the next pups.

I had a similar dream with two dogs ago. After she died, I would have dreams that I would be sitting on the living room couch and she would be curled up next to me. In the dream I knew she was dead, but that she was "visiting" for a short while.

I also had the same kind of dream with my oldest sister who passed away at 35 about 15 years ago. I would dream she was in the house, chatting, all the while knowing in the dream that she was gone.

They were very comforting dreams though, not creepy in any way.
