R.I.P. little buddy

Deepest sympathies for you. It's the worst,most unpleasant thing I have had to do but also the most compassionate. Been over a year and I still tear up.

"Don't weep because they're gone, Smile because they were"
You WILL meet again...
Loss of a close person (a pet is a person to me) is the hardest thing for me. Loss of pets seems to be tougher than losing humans. I feel so responsible for their well-being and happiness that loss seems like a failure on my part. It isn’t really a failure but sure feels awful. Unlike humans, our pets are innocent beings who are relying on us for their life’s requirements because most pets are born into our human world and don’t learn about “wild, non human life”. Please accept my sympathy to all who loved your little buddy.
