Is it weird...

[salienne]

...to be devastated that my sister's dog died? Like, not even my dog, but my sister's. I saw him maybe once a year, but he was one of the sweetest cutest doggies around, and you just couldn't be sad around him. And he made my sister really happy. He just always had so much energy and never outgrew being a puppy; he was tiny, and more than a bit stupid (though in a very loving way), and I don't even think he was 5 years old yet.

But my sister had to put him down, and he really was her baby; I know that if I'm devastated, she's completely heartbroken right now.

So... yeah, send good thoughts toward my sister please, everyone! I think she needs them.

:-/ I'm sorry. It always hurts to lose a pet-- and some people make it worse by not understanding that it was more than "just a pet".

I'll be thinking good thoughts towards your sister.

(Just last night I was thinking about what a miracle it was that we got my mom's cat back after the fire. She found him a month to the day after he ran away from the firefighters who tried to give him oxygen, and he was skin-and-bones. I'm not sure how this is related, but it seems like it is.)
