I am so sorry to hear this news! I know well how much it hurts. Tears sprang to my eyes the second I read your post.

We are on the eve of bringing our new puppy home, knowing full well that one day we will once again go through the pain you are experiencing now. Yet somehow, it is all worth it, for the joy, laughter, and love our furkids bring us.

I know that you will get through this, as I did when we lost our beloved Pepper (12-18-2006). The sadness is always there in your heart, but your memories of your sweet Cricket will bring you sweet smiles in due time. Knowing you, I know that she had a wonderful life!
