Personally I would try not to look at it as a "replacement"....
After the loss there usually is an emptiness in your life, in your home and in your heart....the new pet allows you to continue to love, live and smile again....
It gives you a new focus...instead of being consumed in a death your emotions are redirected in the care and love of the living....it just has to be timed right...
