Show us your pets!

....but it's so hard to imagine loving an animal the way I loved him.
It really helps to know that other people feel the same way about their pets.

But love you will. Maybe not exactly the same way, but our hearts have an amazing way of finding new ways to love our furry and feathered companions.
When I lost Samantha, and then Caboose both to cancer (L and R in the pic below), I never thought I could love another cat the same way. They were with me for over 14 years, thru thick and thin, good times and bad. I was devastated, and I still cry after 10 years.
Yet after they earned their wings, several stray cats adopted me, and I learned to love again. Was it the same? No. Was it equal? Absolutely. Equal but different. You'll see.
