That is great!

Very well said.

I was going to say something to you about this regarding your fear of getting another pet. That we love them and know all the time they will break our hearts, but that I get great satisfaction out of knowing that for their whole short lives they were safest in my hands, till the end, hopefully. So I feel I get two of the benefits described up there!

The animals will be born and die whether we personally choose to love them or not. Some will not get the love they deserve, I know that the ones I take in will.

Yes, I know what you have said are all true. Wait until I get through this someday. I don't know when but I will. My plan is to volunteer to work in the local RSCPA for some homeless and less fortunate pets. Maybe I will meet my next Gigi there. I hope.
