I lost my little black pom 2 weeks ago, as of today, it isn't any "better." Funny, I lost my Mom 4 weeks ago (94 and Altzheimers) and I sort of sighed and said "oh darn!" But losing Muffy tore a huge hole in me. There are some good books at Amazon on Pet Loss, and a lot of stuff online.

But to answer your question. I don't know if you are "web capable" or not, but you can make your own web page if you are, and if you are not, there are some great online "pet memorial" web pages, where you just fill in the blanks and "they' make the web page for you. I went through all our albums and digital pics and collected all the best pictures, then laid out Muffy's whole story, trying to remember all the wonderful times with her. Just searching for the photos and writing the story kept me "occupied" and helped. Unfortunately, as we begin to heal, it is because we begin to forget. I'm not going to let any of those special moments get away from me. So I documented them and may add to them when I think of more. Probably no one will ever see the page, (and I'm not soliciting for hits, I'd rather keep it private). But if you need an example it is here:

Go on a hunt for all those pictures, then try writing out the story, it really does help (a little).
