Thank you all

Thanks for the kind words after the loss of our dog. It's need hard. I never knew I could love an animal so much. Each day is a little better for us!

I have been through it several times. They become exactly like our children. The pain when they pass is soooo difficult. I couldn't handle it. Every time one of my fur babies passed away, I had to get a new puppy or a new cat. That was the only thing that made the pain better.

@4meAndyou The more you care for someone, even a pet, the more you grow to love them.

@cherokeepatti Exactly. You get to know their little personality, their funny little quirks, and they become a part of you.

@4meAndyou I thought I was going to have a heart attack when that little house cat I had died back over 20 years ago.

@cherokeepatti Well...let's not upset Cigarguy any further. I am feeling a bit insensitive for delving into my own pain.

@4meAndyou Just trying to show him I can empathize his pain.

@cherokeepatti it all good, makes me feel good other people understand what we are going through and I'm not alone.
