I'm so sorry for your loss. It's difficult to lose a fur-baby. I cried
buckets when our oldest found her way to the Rainbow Bridge. I
sometimes wish they could all outlive me... but then, a part of me is
comforted in knowing that I can give them a good life, until the very end.

Sorry to hear about this tragedy, Dillon. I know it was a difficult
decision.

Aw, I'm so sorry. It's never easy to let a loved one go, even the four
legged kind. But it sounds like he's in a better place.
