I am so sorry, it is never fair when they leave us.  I am sure he always knew how much you loved him.  He is at peace now.

I don't know what to say.  I just can't handle these type of things.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

That is my dilema. Do I dare try to replace a pet that I thought was perfect? I just know the odds will be against me, and I will get a terror too.  :22yikes:  :22yikes:  :22yikes:   :smilielol:

I know... I am going to wait a while before I think about getting another pet. But for a couple of minutes I thought about taking some DNA and having him cloned!  :scared: Then I realized how weird that sounded... I wouldnt want someone cloning me.

Sure you can clone your pet... but the thing is, will it have the same personality? That is the BIG thing.  :grinyes:

We thought we would wait a while but only lasted two weeks before we were looking online.Found these two thru a rescue organization-they are terrors in a good way.

hey... i know it sucks, because my cat just died about a month ago.  she was at least 16 years old when she died, but we're not sure because she was a stray.  animals are great, but they're hard to replace.  i might get another cat, and you might get another dog, but we'll never replace the ones that came before.  you know what they say, though.  all dogs (and cats) go to heaven.

my condolences.
One step at a time...
