I often wonder what the link is between those of us who forge deep emotional connections with their pets, and those who do not, or cannot. I have always felt like the lunatic fringe when the loss of my 19 year old cat was more painful than loosing either of my parents. As we all know, the

It was much harder to loose a dear kitty than to go through a divorce. People don't understand that either. It's true though - nothing leaves such a hole in your heart. Love and prayers to you and to Tomi, Cassandra. elizabeth On 6/15/07, Kelly L [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: At 08:33 PM
