Is it normal to still feel my dog jump up my bed? she has been dead for 6 years

If you're being haunted by the ghost of your late chihuahua then I would say that you're blessed!

Its normal. I lost my dog to cancer this year, fuck 2020.

I had also lost my friend midway through 2019 before this and if the energy of my dog was able to meet up with his I'm sure hes seen the pity and self loathing I had gone through. He would of sent my dogs spirit on the way to assure me that everything's okay . You can believe me or not but I reckon from what you described I think your dog was a one owner kind of dog... has only ever seen you as it's TRUE owner, even when your dog lived with your nan. Also dogs are more empathetic than you might think. Most animals do have that and although they have the intelligence equivalent of a toddler, they understand when they see someone in pain. In your dogs living life it would of seen you in pain and it comes to you to stop you feeling so down. If you want it to stop, you're going to have to tell her next time she comes that you appreciate her concern for you and that you're only sad now because she is gone and you miss her but you are happy if she goes to another place (heaven if you believe in that, spirit realm or afterlife) so that her energy can rest. She wont understand the sadness you now feel isnt fixable by her bringing happiness by her visiting you. She wont understand her visits are making you miss her or grieve. You just have to ask her to rest and hope to move on someday

I am a believer in the paranormal, but not the "shadow figure" or the stereotypical "ghostly" sides to it. I believe in every living thing having an energy inside it and when their body is broken it breaks free. The energy can visit loved ones sometimes but it mostly wanders in and out of the living world. Sorry if I sound like a spiritualist or whatever, but I personally was made to believe this when my own dog passed away. She had to be put down for gallbladder and unfortunately I was in another town when these decisions were being made. Without even knowledge of what was happening that same evening I saw a ball of light come up to me. I thought I was seeing things or tired. I was a skeptic back then, a year ago. I felt a warmth come over me and I knew it wasn't a presence that would hurt me. Then it vanished. Well the next day I was shocked to find out of my dogs passing but have come to realize it was her way of telling me when no one else seemed to have the time to tell me. I had moved out from my parental house also and I felt regret as time went by of not spending enough time with my pupper. Always had school, and then work or friends to worry about. I reckon that's her way of telling me it was alright and to not hold onto that regret anymore. Death can actually be a beautiful thing. It can put to rest those who are feeling any kind of pain and to the untrained eye, pain was what she had gone through

I still feel our cats after they have died

Gremlins weren't fluffy, that was Gizmo, the Mogwai. However, I live in a house where I feel a cat walk on my bed when my door is shut and the cat isn't in there. It's at the foot of the bed and sometimes walks right next to me. Very odd. This has happened even before I got my cat...hmmm

Jump up *on my bed, but I had to edit the question like 3 times to submit -_-
