🐾 Yesterday held a special meaning for many people missing a beloved pet, and I wanted to take a moment to recognize it.
October 27 has become a day to remember departed animal companions as part of a growing modern custom connected to Mexico’s Día de Mu***os, or Day of the Dead.
Some families believe this is when their pets’ spirits return home for a visit. They welcome them with photographs, favorite toys, treats, and the light of a candle—a loving tribute to the companions they still hold close.
There is something comforting about imagining those familiar paws finding their way home. Back to their favorite spot on the couch. Back to the doorway where they always waited. Back to the people who would give anything for one more ordinary day together.
Whether that belief speaks to you or you simply find comfort in remembering, there is room to honor that love today, too.
At Paws’d in Time, I know how much those memories matter. The names, the little habits, the stories you still tell. Their place in your family doesn’t disappear when their life ends.
If you feel comfortable, share your pet’s name or a photograph in the comments. I’d be honored to help remember them with you. 🤍
