Thanks for all the support
Hey everyone we are doing ok. I am trying to put my thoughts on paper and possibly write a book one day about coping with pet loss because there is not that many good books out there to read. It is disappointing. Sorry if I miss spell words I have my glasses off to rest my eyes and I have trouble seeing the keys lol I'm only 22 oh well anyways...My boss came to work today with flowers for me because she knew how much Riley meant to us! That was so sweet! I'm so glad that some people realize that animals mean so much, they are more than just a dog or cat. Kira my kitty has been doing a good job on keeping me company when I'm sad. If I cry she is right by my side giving me kisses or rubbing on me letting me know she is there. My other kitty Sadie is not as friendly but she comes around as well. If it wasn;t for all the support on here and my furry friends I don;t think I could have made it. THANKS EVERYONE! It means everything to us.
I am having a necklace made of a photo of Riley. I am etching the photo into a silver charm. That way he can always be with me wherever I go and that will help me I believe. Please continue to pray for us because this is a daily battle to fight away the tears but all in all 2 weeks after this horrible event I think my family is doing really well! The necklace I am having made is being made at walmart. The lady at the counter was so sweet. She started crying when she talked about the loss of her dog this past January. It is so nice to know that other people have been in this place and have made it through. Things are so weird though when I go to visit my parents and no one greets me at the door..I still catch myself looking for him when I come over there. Then I realize he isn't there...This is all still so new and yet it feels as if its been an eternity...At least we can rest assure that he is in a better place with many other pets and is having a blast chasing and playing in the clouds.

Hi there! I'm glad to hear that you all are doing ok. I think about you all often...I saw a pirate pet outfit at Walmart the other day and said Sir Riley!!!! I don't look forward to the day we have to say good-bye to our dogs but I know it's a part of life....not that we have to like that part! He touched a lot of hearts that you all didn't know that he touched! Hang in there!!!!

I've been thinking about you, I am glad to hear you are getting through. What a nice tribute you have made. The necklace idea is a great one, cant wait to see a picture of it. Love the pictures of your kitties, they are beautiful. Kira reminds me of a cat we had when I was a kid. Take care and take one day at a time.

Keep up the posts, even though reading them brings tears to my eyes. At least my office mate is on vacation this week and I don't have to try and explain why I'm sniveling.
Cats are wonderful creatures. At my older age, Henry is my first dog. I've had cats in my life forever (until I found I have a severe allergy to them). I miss Sam Cat still, and swear I can see him from to corner of my eye occasionally.

I totally know where you are at...I have been there,too.I had a siamese cat that was the whole world to me ...I created a backporch/greenhouse into a cafe and named it after him...The Cafe Wa...and he became really ill and I had to have him put to sleep and it felt like the world stopped.But,life goes on and you go with it.You'll love and heal.Animals need us and we need them and you have those kitties...they will help you.

So happy to hear you are healing.....it takes time and its a different process for everyone. You cats are beautiful..I STILL miss Max (my cat), but Spencer keeps me very busy and makes me laugh everyday. Continue to take care of yourself!

We continue to pray for you. Your kitties are beautiful and I'm sure they give you great comfort. I know mine have done so in the past. There's something calming about burying your head in their soft fur.

Thank you so much for the info about the necklace at WalMart. I got my daughter's high school class ring made through them and they did a great job. I'd be interested in getting something similar made one day.
I am so happy to hear your kitties are there to give you comfort. They are a fine looking pair!
