    Thank you so much for this, Dharma. It’s eerily similar to what his sister (litter mate) passed away from and we’re just trying our best to hang on. My wife and I both have her paw print tattooed on us (my wrist, her ankle) and It’s only been a year and a half. We can’t lose our little dude, it’s too soon

      I completely understand. It’s sort of insane and completely wild how much you can love something that isn’t even the same species. I’ve got a dachshund who’s been plagued with spinal problems. He’s been paralyzed twice to the point where I literally had to express his bladder for him, and we’ve gotten him through it. They’re special, and so important. I really hope he’s going to be okay. Do you mind if I ask what’s going on with him?

        Hey just DM’d you as I don’t want to hijack this celebratory thread with cat-sadness. Thanks for being so kind and sympathetic
