[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my indoor cat died at 22 years old, I was devastated. I got him when he was six weeks old, and he had been a significant part of my life. He was also older than my kids. While I sobbed and grieved over his death, my 14 year old at the time held me and said "it's okay mom. We know you loved him as much as you love us." That meant so much to me because people who don't understand the connection with pets and humans are incapable of understanding our grief. Please don't load yourself with guilt. Grieve and do what you need to do to get through this, and I promise you will. Here's a link that I think will help. Take care, my friend. http://www.helpguide.org/articles/grief-loss/coping-with-pet-loss.htm [/quote] Thanks, yes he was my kid, which I now realize only after his death.[/quote]
