I really, really hate to hear that.. The animal kingdom can be quite harsh, but its not supposed to happen to your pets.. We lost our little blind Beagle Lucie in 2016 and we still talk about her every day, all day long.. every time we see a plane overhead (which here is 100 times a day) we say, "there goes Lucie" and "land your plane, Lucie".. The last time Lucie and I drove around in my truck, she created "nose art" on the passenger window.. I refuse to clean that window and I will physically beat anyone who does.. its been there over 4 years..
Our pets are our life.. I'm very saddened that you lost one of your best friends...
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
