I've been through pet loss a lot, each is different just as the pet is. When I got the call about Jaz I was feeding the dogs.

I think that helps so much. It's not like I need to gt rid of anything that was his cause nothing was his, it was all shared, People with one pet have it much rougher cause of all the reminders but I don't get rid of toys, food bowls, litter boxes... -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Denise 's message, "Hi guys. I'm not bad at all. I think dealing with Jaz's problems for months now I kind of got "ready" for what might happen. Even this past few weeks it was a daily thing, giving shots, pills etc. Knowing he wasn't feeling well I too advantage of his good days and gave him lots of attention. One thing that bothers me is when they are alone when they go, I would never have allowed that, had I known Friday morning just how bad he was and how short a time he was going to be here I would have let them help him pass so I could be with him." on 3:30:24 pm, Sun, 01/27/08

At bedtime I put the cats in the basement. This is the sad time cause I count heads and am missing one and I don't want to count one less. I made his picture my desktop and I use the cursor and 'pet' him and can almost feel him. I'll be weepy off and on for awhile but like I said, I know where he is and I'll be there one day. Thank you all for caring. (NT) -- D, 3:35:08 pm, Sun, 01/27/08
