Hi Claudia, I know you miss your little one and it hurts. I lost my Katie who I had for 11 years and I got her from a very abusive family when she was three years old. I still have my periods of crying and still carry that gut hurt around. My Katey had Liver Cancer, she was to old and did not react to the medications. I had to put her down so she wouldn't be in any more pain. Its been a little over a week now. I was with her when she left me. I was looking into her eyes talking and petting her so she would feel love'd. It is hard and it will hurt for a while but you are not alone. I know saying this will not take the pain away but to let you know I care and share with you the pain and the love we lost. I will keep you in my prayers. Together there is healing. Robin

Thank You Becky and Angie, I find myself still looking for Katie in her corner or beside my bed. It feels so strange not having her around. I still hurt and trying to keep from showing it around my family. They looked at Katie as just a dog but to me she was my friend. She was there for me when I was down and would nudge my hands when I was up set or mad. She would look right into my eyes as if trying to tell me she love'd me. She was always with me everywhere I went. I miss her snezzing with me when I snezed. It was a game for us. Becky, thank you so much and I understand too on what you and your husband are feeling, I'm with you in spirit too and you are not alone either. Robin

I just lost my best friend in all the world. Katie left me Jan,16 at 8:58 pm. I had the honor of being the last voice and last one she saw on this earth. We had to put her down because the cancer in her liver had her in pain and was not letting her go. I got Katie in 1993, she was three years old at the time. She had been abused and was very afraid of people but mostly men. My husband and I worked with her with love and more love. It took three years before she started feeling comfortable. She never left my side and we became very close. We did everything together. She started showing her age and slowed down and I knew I was looking at a short time left with her, I didn't realize just how short. She is gone now and it has been just a few days. I hurt so bad and there is a huge hole in my heart and I want her back but I know that will not happen. I can't stop crying and my husband tries but he is getting tired of it. I have never love'd so much like I did with my katie. I miss her so much. Robin
