My condolences. My heart also goes out to you. They’re really part of the family. I lost my cat, 22 years old, in July. It can still make me cry and his photo is up all over the house.

We had toyed with the idea, before he died, of having him as our company’s logo or giving the business a name that reminded us of him. The business has nothing to do with animals. As much as we would’ve like to do it, it just didn’t make any sense. We’re still figuring out a way to incorporate him, his likeness into our site, some of our ad campaigns maybe. It’s a family business and he still is part of the family.

We will sell fashion accessories and the last thing my cat wanted to do was wear clothes. He always had opinions about what we were wearing though. Again, thank you for sharing and we hope you can keep him in your heart.

Dogs are friends like no other. Each one we have the privilege of sharing our lives with is precious, bringing their own special teachings to us as the gift it is.

What a terrible shame, Terry.

We have had three Yellow Labs and have seen two of them go. Our third one is about 7 years old now. His name is Remy (Remington).

Every pet owner knows how painful it is to lose a beloved pet.

Terry,

My heart goes out to you over the loss of Rocky. Having had a dog who was my constant companion and beloved friend, I know how you feel. It really is a blessing to have such a tight bond with your pet. Remember that. Thanks for sharing this with us. By the way, that’s a really great picture of you and Rocky.

Take care,
Ray

Hi Terry
Brought tears to my eyes.
We lost our German Shepherd dog last week (Tuesday)
Emma was 11 years old and was big – but very gentle.
We’ve still got her mother – Tsara, who’s 12/5.
We’ve had shepherds for about 40 years now.
They become so much a part of your life
(like children really) and it really hurts when you lose them.
You’ve got the memories, ………. remember the good times.
Take care
regards
Graham in U.K.
