you are new to YT and what you will find here is a community that loves their pets more than most people do and understand your loss like many will not. Like Teri said a new pet will NEVER replace a lost one but it will go a long way in helping.
Years ago when I lost my first yorkie suddenly, I had to go on a business trip shortly after, I was telling this person that worked for me about it, her husband came in mid conversation and was sort of laughing because to him it was not a big deal. He told me that he had a friend that lost a cat that he had for about 15years and he seemed to be taking it hard. but the gal's husband did not understand why. However he happened to see a sympathy card for loss of a cat so he sent it to his friend as a JOKE!!!!. But much to his surprise the friend was so touched and thanked him for it. He was laughing as he told me his friend did not get the joke
. I am sorry and am not even sure why I am typing this, but I guess to tell you that if you are still grieving as hard as I know you are I am sure you have encountered A holes just like this guy, unless you have a pet you often don't know the pain you can have when you loose one. I spend more time with Lola than any of my family including my husband, so I feel closer to her than most anyone I know, so losing her would be just like losing an immediate family member. Please know we understand your pain and how it is not easy to get over.
