    It’s been 2 years since Basil passed. Even up to this day, whenever I think of Basil, I think of my dog. Her name was Gidget and was exactly like Basil except she didn’t eat poop. She was a hybrid between a Labrador and Jack Russell. There was something about her that was unique and that was she stood outside from the other pups in the store. She was sort of this shy, isolated dog just in the corner next to the water bowl and then when she was adopted by me, she changed into this energetic dog but was still a very shy dog but she loved to explore and was a good girl

    It's hard to lose a friend...no a family member, because, let's be real, pets are exactly that. Members of your family.
    I know exactly just how horrible that feeling is. And as bad as it may be, the fact that you feel the way you do, shows how important he was to you, and, I assume, how much joy he brought to you. Even if he wasn't always easy to deal with, haha.
    Take your time. Take the time you need to process that...really.
    Wishing you the best of luck.

    James (if I'm allowed to call you that), you gave him the best life a dog could ever have. He lived for 16 YEARS!!! That is a very long time, and he did well for his years. Basil knew he was loved (even though he stole food and ran through the neighbourhood and pulled bread off the shelves and ate crap), and even with his specialties, he was strong and still growled at his human. Basil was the best boy anyone could have had, and he lived the best life. He won't ever be forgotten, and people loved him everywhere. Rest in Peace, Basil, 2004-2021. You are loved by all. You do well, Beaver, and know that you took care of the best boy in the world.

    James, looking back at this video, I can now understand your pain. Earlier this year, I lost my 10 year old German shepherd, Alex. I had him ever since he was born, which was when I was around 8. I loved him like a brother, he even showed the same love back when he protected me from snakes and even a burglar. Unlike Basil though, he never stank like a cow's backside but he was still an adventurous little prick just like Basil. RIP Basil, lest we forget

    I lost my dog 2 years ago now; she was taken by my parents 6 months before I was born and she has been with me from the very first moment of my life. I'm now 18, I was 16 when she died and I already thought that growing up would make it easier to handle mourning. I can say it doesn't. Zoe was the best: she was calm, she didn't bark, if I had a nightmare and told her to sit on my bed she would do it and stay with me for the whole night. When she passed away I cried a lot, just 2 days before that happened I stayed with her in the garden and hugged her very very tight, already knowing what was going to happen. Zoe made my life more beautiful and funnier in many ways. The last year of her life she slowly begun not to walk, to pee and defecate on herself when eventually she couldn't stand up any more. Even though it's hard, dying put an end to her suffering. I remember the day she died I hugged her for the last time before going to school and when I came back she wasn't there any longer. I hope Basil didn't suffer too James. I understand your pain we are all with you. Stay strong and may Basil rest in peace❤

      I lost my cat of most of my life September 22nd 2020. I cried the whole day, and more, and I had my friend there to comfort me even before he left my house to go get put down. He didn’t like me much as a toddler, but as I grew, I grew on him, and I always loved him, but when he loved me back I realized what it was like to have a cat. My cat was a cat who picked a single person and could move on very easily, but once he latched onto me he couldn’t let go until the time came, where he had to. I have many stories with him, many good memories. He had to be put down because he had odd breathing. His chest would go up, his stomach would go down, and it flip flopped. I knew it was time to let him go, and I’m very happy to know he is no longer suffering. Thank you for reading.
      He also was a very old cat, which made me know the time had come. (He was around his teens)

    Hey James... I just wanted to say that your videos, no matter the content, it always makes me smile and get me through each day... even with how sh*tty my life has turned around yesterday. Just yesterday (in Indonesia time, since I live in Indonesia), my dog, a female Corgi that was just about to be three years old, who me and my family called Brittany (nicknamed Bri), passed away just yesterday... I won't get into the details but we brought her to the vet, as she had multiple seizures and we're vomiting constantly. The vet tried to help her, but, I think all of us know that she wasn't going to make it... around the time the other members of the family came to the vet (at the time it was me and my older brother), her signs of life had faded... even if I watched your videos multiple times, I'm still lost in all of this... of course I cried, I think, between all of the members of our family, I think I cried the most... but yeah, I'm not sure why I'm even saying this to you, but I just want to vent a bit here I guess...

    In my 3-4 years of watching James I've never seen him like this. And its okay for him to be like this because I cried and while I'm writing this I still am. Basil was quite a dog from what I have seen and heard from James. But Beavs remember whenever he was there for u, U were there for him and u were her for all 3.12 million of us. Because u have helped me through finding out who I am as a person. I realized that liking dinosaurs isn't weird and all of u 3.12 million people helped me with that 2. So in closing he lived him best life and u were the one that gave him that best life. But remember everything happens for a reason and now he is in puppy heaven. Love yall , love u James, ❤
