it's been a rough week. on friday, i had to euthenize my cat, ricky. he had a seizure a few weeks ago, and i thought he was coming out of it, but after a week or so, he just started going downhill. he had a good life, was with me for 14 years, and the best mouser ever. was just catching my breath, when on the tuesday after, had to have my oldest dog (9), sonny, put down. he was the smartest dog i knew. just a big fluff. (he even helped me in the garden, i would be pulling dead stuff out and throwing to the side, and he would grab it and take it away.) i had noticed about a month ago that he had lost some weight, (it was hard to tell with all that fur), and these past couple of weeks was starting to have labored breathing. easter day he spent all day on his feet! (stubborn) and was even falling asleep standing up! he finally laid down about 3:30 in the a.m. it's always a tough call the the vet, thankfully, they are caring, understanding and compasionate people. i still have one pet left, ginger (6)...i can only imagine what is going on in her head.....today, we're going for a ride in the car...something i couldn't do with the two of them...sonny never sat still, could never make his mind up if he wanted to sit in the front or the back....lol...drove me nuts......have some adjusting to do in the household.....and i think i'll just keep the one pet for a while....if i had none, then i would have to get another, because i believe a home without a pet is an empty one.
