How are you today Art?
I am not as bad as l expected to be, Mups.
I know he couldn’t have gone on any longer. I would have preferred if he had died naturally and not me having to have him put to sleep.
At the time, I felt guilt that l had, had him murdered.... those feelings have now passed.

Could not comment on your loss yesterday but my thoughts are with you Art

If I hadn't I lost my little fella in the way he died I could remember things better but... the memory still upsets me.

I am so sorry, solo. It is so bad to lose your pet but lose them tragically is too hard to bear.

Thank You for posting on here. Honestly, l really appreciate it and l hope in time, your pain will ease....

You’ve had your own worries to contend with. I hope your son is feeling much better. It has been a worrying time for you.
I think we each have our emotional challenges. The nice thing on this forum, is we all support each other Art.
It is what makes this forum great, rather than just good. My boy is still poorly, but I can still relate to your upset.
Hugs sent.

I know Art, it is the guilt that affects us most. I had to have my cat put down six years ago but I could still get upset if I let myself think about it too much.

Working for humane societies in third world countries I have had many dogs put to sleep and I felt for everyone .
Some had horrible incurable deseases and no home or people to care for them .
I think of them often .

Re: A Message For Leia re My Marty, Who l Had To Have Put To Sleep Last Week...

Aawww Art, I'm so sorry to hear about Marty. It's heart wrenching losing a beloved pet. I can only offer you a hug and a picture I always keep in my mind's eye:

I used to tell myself and my daughter, that they were instantly better and happy 'up there'. Having fun again and enjoying themselves because they were well again.
And the crossed (X) vapour trails in the sky, left by the planes, were our pets blowing us kisses.

Sounds daft, but I like to believe it. Makes me smile and keeps away the tears, even now, years later.

Thank You, Pesta for your comforting words.
I am sure, l once read in one of your posts that your family also had a poodle?

If so, you will know they are wonderful, intelligent little dogs and not ‘oxygen wasters’ as someone years ago, referred to them as!
