I’m convinced of it. But losing a beloved pet is never easy. Jeanette has lost her good friend Silky. If you understand what it’s like, please drop by and commiserate.
Thank you and your readers for your sympathies. We did our best to give her the best life possible, and we have no regrets over our decision to euthanize her. But I miss her so much!
I just left a comment with her as well. Animals bring a special awareness to us and I think the unconditional love a animal shows is profoundly amazing.
Yesterday my very good blogging friend The Anchoress read about the death of our precious Silky and wrote a post called All Dogs Go to Heaven, asking pet lovers to come over and commiserate.
You all have been wonderful in your comments and some of you…
Saturday we had to euthanize Linda’s beloved nearly-18-year old Persian mix Gigi. It was so incredibly difficult and yet it was absolutely the right thing to do. Over the past 2 weeks her quality of life had disappeared entirely. But oh my stars, I do miss that little Princess!
I’m so sorry about your losing Silky. My husband and I too lost a beloved 13.5 year old “fur baby” (a black, miniature schnauzer) back in 2003. We were so heartbroken we swore we’d never get attached to another doggie. However, one beautiful spring day just a few months later I rescued the most precious little 6 week-old puppy that had been “put out” by the roadside in a ditch and left to die. He’s had a Doritos bag on his head. He’s grown into the handsomest little mutt you’ve ever seen. He’s black and white and looks like he’s wearing a tuxedo. We named him Chip because of finding him with the Dorito bag on his head.
