- THE WEEK OUR LIVES FELL APART ||
To our viewers who always show such care for us,
I edited this video yesterday (April 13th, 2024) so it’s almost been a month since this week happened… nonetheless editing this had me shaking crying in a corner downstairs. To me - it’s the opposite of anything we’ve ever shared. It was hard to watch every clip full of stress, sadness and each day it seemed another problem arose in our lives. I personally would not have wanted to share this - however the last 2 years so many of you have been on our life journey with us and have rooted for us, uplifted us, and been there with your sweet words in the comments and kind gestures you’ve sent us to our PO Box… i know our pets are a HUGE part of every video we share, and I get so many comments about our cat Menunckey and I know for fact that so many of you loved and adored her.. so I did not want to stop documenting and I am choosing to share this so that there is closure on the special life she lived… rather than just glossing over it and having to film an uncomfortable aftermath video. It’s been almost a month and we are doing much better - though the absence of our sweet kitty is still greatly felt in our house. We love her so much and miss her every day. 💔
Thanks to everyone who reached out during this period of time and to those of you who sent such heartwarming gifts - we are so grateful and cherish them all.
Love yall TONS,
Stephen, Bryan & Kenzie
I think it's safe to say that we all cried right along with you.
Oh absolutely
I cried buckets 😢❤
So did I.
😭❤️❤️
The world would be a much better place if everyone treated their animals the way you all have treated Menunckey. Hugs to all of you.❤
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Menunckey is not gone- all our loved furry family members stay with us in spirit. She was such a special and lovely girl. What a doll and so loving to her younger brother and sister pups. She will not be forgotten.
I am so sorry for your loss of precious Menunckey. Our pets are part of our family like yours , and therefore the feeling of loss is enormous. You have all been through way too much lately. You are such a special family with such big hearts (including pets). Because of this, I truly believe God made sure you would all find your way to each other. I hope you can take some comfort in this. Be easy on yourselves. Allow yourselves time to get back into your routine.❤️❤️❤️
So sweet. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Stephen, I hope you know that you are a warrior! Through your grief you persevered and did what you needed to keep your family going. Bryan’s illness, the pretties problems, Kenzie’s needs were all met and cared for as you worried about Menunkey and did your best for her. Thank you for sharing your life and vulnerability with us. The world would be a better place if we could all be as honest and caring as you are.💕

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Oh Stephen, this is Rebecca 🌻Oh Stephen😢 Menunckey was the luckiest Kitty in the World to be your Kitty! You gave Kitty the best life ever! I mean 15 years! That’s rare! It just shows what a healthy happy Kitty Menunckey was, Thanks to you! This truly showed that you’re not only beautiful on the outside, Super Beautiful! It shows you are just as beautiful on the inside! When my Chihuahua past at 14 years, I cried for 3 months! The pain gets better or easier to deal with after time, time is what it takes , I was very concerned about how you we’re going to edit this! Poor Stephen! You’re stronger than you know! Lots of Love and Hugs , Rebecca 🌻
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Our cat is 17 and now in early stage kidney failure. Everyday is precious. My heart breaks for you guys. I do believe they go to a better place and your precious fur baby is free of her aging body. Much love and light!🙏
I am so so sorry that you are going through something similar. Sending your precious kitty and your family all the love and hugs ❤️
I am os sorry for your lots of cat. From Samantha clark from Watford Herts uk London
Stephen,I have watched this video twice now and cried each time. I truly feel your pain as I haave lost many fur babies ❤❤ please know you and the family are in my thoughts ❤❤❤
I was gutted watching you try and make this video. I know this feeling all too well. Our pets hold such a big piece of our hearts. It was clear that Menunckey was well loved and her memory will stay with you forever. Much love.
Xoxox The Kerr Family.
I am so sorry for your loss of your beloved Menunkey 😢Sending you lots of love and healing prayers!
We shared many moments with your family. We share the good and tearful times. Sending you a hug from Shropshire x
Thank you so much. So glad to have you on here. Lots of love ❤️
I was in tears through this entire video, and I don't know how you made it through the editing. She had a wonderful life and as hard as it was, I am so glad she was with her family when she passed. Time heals, but you will never forget her. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I have no words. I am so SO sorry for your whole family. My partner and I have three cats and have had one we had for 19 years pass away. It is ABSOLUTELY the worst. The pain is just awful! No less than losing a human family member. Please find comfort in knowing you did all you could, and remember what a LOVING and happy home you gave him. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this very very sad time. Please take care of yourself and stay strong. 💔
I'm happy she spent her last few hours at Home instead of the vet hospital 😿 she loved you all 😿😭 💔🌈 Condolences. Menunckey, you will be missed and never forgotten 💕🫂🌈💔
the one thing i know is if a animal in a family is sick or something is wrong and there is other animals around that are close to the one is sick it means that it's almost time to let the one that is not doing good to let it or them go and rest in peace and not suffer and sending your family love and support . RIP Menunckey ❤❤
So sorry for your loss ……Our Pet are so important to us……She had a wonderful life with so much love….Take Care of yourself and those beautiful puppies……❤
Stephen.. my heart is broken in a million pieces for ya'll...you especially...me and menurky share the same birthday... I'm crying for you because i know the feeling...i lost my Pride and Joy in September...Hotfoot is still around..i actually hear him playing with his favorite toys .. God Bless you and your Family.. You are the glue that keeps ya'll together..Feel better Bryan and Kenzie you are a joy to watc😂h.. All cats go to Heaven...😢
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Menunckey fall high sweet angel . Diddy ,dad & Kinzey my heart ❤ goes out to you .
I've never seen a loving cat that loves dogs as much as humans. Thats a testament to the character of Menunckey how she loved unconditionally and she learned from the Holgates how to do that no matter what race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation. Thank you for sharing and documenting all of the memorable encounters to all of us in a way that makes us feel like we're a part of the family as well. I just can't describe the amount of sadness I feel right now as my heart is broken along with you. The tears are flowing heavily today and I want you all to know that i'll be thinking of you during this difficult time. RIP Menunckey, the amount of love and support you have spans the entire globe, but that still isn't enough love that you've shown to the Holgates and the world.
So sweet. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Sorry for your loss, but at least she was in your arms when she passed, she would have been feeling safe and feeling all the love from her famii;y surrounding her.
My heart. All my feels right now. It is an odd thing how you can have never met a family yet still empathize with their grief. 😢 hugs in advance
😔❤️❤️ you’re the best. I’m sitting with my heart pounding so nervous for this video to go up. Yesterday when I went to edit I thought I’d be ok because it’s been almost a month but it really re-traumatized me. Life can sure be rough sometimes.
Sending you the biggest hug ❤️
I lots my dog three weeks go I am Stell up set about that . from Samantha from Watford Herts uk London
Sorry for your loss it's very hard loosing a family member, friends or pets. I've lost 3 chinchillas in the past year last one passed away 2 weeks ago. 😢
You are not expected to put on a happy face when the going gets tough. It never gets easier. We just find better ways to cope. I know that is not what you want for your viewers, but I am genuinely sad at this moment. Maybe it is because I have two orange tabbies or probably I simply care about you kind individuals. I bet Menunkey is on Bryans mom's lap at this moment. Nice work Kenzy with the cheer moves! I am glad no one is sick anymore. There is a balance in life. Good things are bound to be on their way. Maybe go buy a lottery ticket. More hugs
❤❤❤
Sending all of you a big hug. I’m so very sorry for your loss. I know this was so hard for you to film, but it is a beautiful tribute to a very much loved kitty. 😢❤
Such a loving and lovely tribute to share with us. If ever anyone questioned the impact our pets have on us and our families, they only need watch this video. Again, it was lovely. Thank you.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Menunckey was the luckiest girl to be loved and cherished by the Holgate family!! The love she received in her last 24 hours is a testament to what absolutely beautiful people you and Bryan are. It’s time to heal and know your fans will be here as the family emerges stronger. I for one , love you guys to the moon and back and am so happy I stumbled upon your channel a year ago.
So sweet. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
You are such a sweet Soul! Im so sorry about Menunky 😢💔🐈She knows how much you love her!
💫🤍💫🤍💫🤍💫
Aww thank you so much 💔😭❤️
😢I’m so sorry for your loss. I cried with you this entire video.
Me too
My heart is broken for you guys, I know exactly how you feel. I lost my 17 year old dog. You had me crying through the whole video I could hardly see through the tears.💕
I'm so sorry. It's always hard to lose a family member and our fur babies are family the same as our humans. We love them all. Bless all of you. 😢❤
So sorry for your loss of Menunckey she is and always going to be a very beautiful and very special kitty.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
In 2019, we lost our precious kitty Lily. She was with us just shy of 18 years. Menunckey will always be in your heart and part of the little pretty crew.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ so so sorry for your loss too.
So sorry for your loss. She will always be in your hearts😢We lost our 16 year old Terror in 2020 and my heart still aches.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ so sorry you went through it as well.
You have had your share of trials for sure! You're in our thoughts and wish you a better 2024 from now on. She had a beautiful cat life with you, you gave her the best life ever!! Be proud of that.
Love to all of you...What a beautiful tribute to your precious Menunckey.
Thank you so much 😢❤️❤️💔💔
For United Caring Kindness !! Kindness Caring United Forever !! Painted on my Shoes 🦋❤
Thank you so much 😢❤️❤️💔💔
Losing a pet - especially one who’ve you had for 15 years… is sometimes more emotional & painful than human family/friends b/c you’re with them more and quite frankly, pets are unconditional love. I’m so so sorry for your loss. This is heartbreaking. 💔 😢
May Menunckey’s memory be a blessing to you all, Stephen, Bryan, & Kenzie.
FWIW, I was hanging in there until you brought her home and Winnie & Copper loved on her. I started crying pretty heavily …and then I totally lost it with your screen shot of the announcement. We all share your grief.
Love to your beautiful family.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Sorry for your loss, their not just pets. They are family, my thoughts are with you all.😢
Oh my…. This video made me sob. Menunckey was so lucky to have such an amazing and loving family! She will be forever part of your hearts and waiting for you just across the 🌈 bridge. Sending lots of love and hugs! ❤️
You are so sweet 😭 Thank you so much 😢💔❤️❤️❤️
I am utterly shattered for you guys. Watching this took me back to last September when we lost our pug to lung cancer. She was 10 years old and our only pet.. I would gladly give a year of my life to have an extra year with her!! I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ so sorry you’ve been thru it too.
Sending our love from Scotland to you all 🏴🏴
Thank you so much 😢💔❤️❤️❤️
My heart is so heavy right now for your family; humans and fur-friends. I know what that kind of loss feels like and I know what an absolute blessing it was to bring her home where she was comfortable, and loved, and surrounded by her family. Virtual hug to you all from somewhere near Lubbock, Texas. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷the color of my 🌈 is blue.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
😢 I’m so sorry for the loss of your beautiful fur baby 🐈. Thinking of you all and sending love and hugs. Xxx
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I can't watch it because I have lost too many fur babies as of late. Know I am crying and my heart goes out to all of you. May this next week bring you blessings and healing strength to create beautiful new memories in his honor.. he is with you. Trust me .
As a person who volunteers at cat rescue and loves fur babies and your videos, I am so sorry and sending you a big hug. I'm 120% sure Menunckey was the happiest cat to have you, Bryan, and Kenzie. Please take care of yourself as Menunckey is always with you🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so very sorry for your loss. Crying with you today. Our pets are our family. Heartbroken for you. ❤
We mourn with you. May Menunckeys memory be a blessing for always. ❤
I cried right along with you. ❤ The love you show makes you more lovable. Most of us have felt that pain, and you’re right. It’s worth it for the love you received.
You are such a sweetheart. ❤️😭
Oh my goodness 😢😢 Saddest video ever. I am so sorry for your family. I am sobbing for your family. Animals are such a huge part of our family. I am so incredibly sorry for your family’s loss. 😢😢❤
Stephen, I have watched this video 4 times, each time I do,I cry! Please know I’m thinking of you and the family.
Aw Thank you so much 😢💔❤️❤️❤️
So very sorry for your loss. We just lost our dog, who was 15 and still miss just having her presence by us. Prayers to you all through this difficult time. Our pets make our lives richer, and that is what makes it so hard to say goodbye.
Thank you so much 😢💔❤️❤️❤️
I am so sorry for your family’s loss as well
So sorry for the loss of your fur baby. They are such a big part of the family. We had to have our kitty put down at 13 yrs due to urinary issues. She was definitely well loved in your family...loved watching her curled up with Copper and Winnie.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Steven my hearts going out to you it's so hard for me to watch this I lost my dog and cat with in a year so praying for you lots of love from Arkansas ❤❤❤
Omg those two dogs loving her was so beautiful 😢
Thank you so much 😢❤️❤️💔💔
Oh I’m so sorry for you all, my heart is breaking for you. Thank you for sharing such a hard times with us, we are all sending you massive hugs, and please know our thoughts are with you. You are a wonderful, caring family ❤🌈xx
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
So sorry you lost your kitty. I've lost 2 dogs (family dogs when I still lived at home) and it never gets easier. 1 had liver cancer the other bad arthritis. Just know she's not in pain anymore. She lived a long beautiful life and that's the best gift you could of given her. I hope that brings you some comfort. ❤️
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
just remember she isn't really gone her spirit lives on in your hearts. she knew it was her time to go and she didn't hesitate to hold on any longer she knew she did her part and she stuck with you as long as she could. she knew that she did everything she could and she knew she could leave and go to heaven and be with other cats in the fields. she will always be here no matter what
That means a lot to me. Thank you so much 😢❤️❤️💔💔
The loss of a cat dog or any pet is horrible I have lost two cats and I still remember them to this day your kitty will always be in your heart and you will have fond memories love you guys i cried with you the look in her eyes she knew that you loved her
My heart is breaking for you all
Sending so much love! Letting pets go over the rainbow bridge is so hard. Agree with you, anything with pets and children are some of the most difficult things to be tough for. Losing my childhood cat Margaret Flynn and a rescue kitten Chloe tore me up. Sending peace, love and hugs as you grieve. Menunckey will always be with you.
Oh my goodness I cannot stop crying. Sending hugs to all of you. Thank you for allowing me to love your family and fur babies.
You are so sweet. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful girl Menunckey 😢 thinking of you all as I care for my 16yr old cavalier. ❤
Thank you so much 😢❤️❤️💔💔 hope your baby stays strong for so long
So sorry for your loss! I wish our pets could live as long as we do! Stephen I want you to know how much I appreciate you showing just how raw your pain is. Life isn't always happy for any of us and you being strong enough to show your pain and how you navigate through it helps many of us in ways you may never realize.
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Sending your family all my love. Much love from NB 🇨🇦
