    So sorry to dump this here it just all came out, needed to do something.....still do, don't know what just something!! will be back later xxxxx

    Kathy, I'm so sorry, sitting here crying as well for you. It must have been such a shock for you - at least if you have to make the decision for your pet it does prepare you a little bit - just waking up and finding Orphan not with you any longer must have been dreadful.

    Be kind to yourself - this will take you some time to get over.
    We're here for you any time you need to let off steam, have a rant, anything.

    ((((hugs))))

    Hiya can I join in please.

    I will aim for 10 NDS. This includes online/ebay shopping but not direct debits. I am going to get back to taking packed lunches so should manage 2 out of my 3 workdays (I usually pick up bread/fuel/milk) on the other one.

    kathy, at least he went when he was asleep, surrounded by the people he loves and the people who loved him. I know it's hard, I remember my mum telling me that Snowie (dog when I was growing up - lived til 19) and Sheba (only happened a year and a half ago) died, and I just sat there on the phone with tears streaming and I wasn't able to say anything I ws that choked up.

    NSD no. 3 for me please, and I'll send a little prayer to Rainbow Bridge for Orphan

    Oh Kathy - how distressing for you - are you on your own? Are family there? Can you get someone to sit with you? I could strangle the people at the vets and especially at the crem - surely they must know how people will feel in this situation as they deal with it often

    At least Orphan had a happy life in a loving home - don't try to put him out of your mind to get over it - enjoy the many memories you have of him - poor mite

    ~All we can do is be here for you and send lots of (((((hugs)))))

    Kathy's news made me forget the reason I'd logged onto the thread - to report my NSD NUMBER 1 - did not buy any bargains at car boot this morning, looked in at auction but nothing of interest to us there, so came straight home, and we wont be going out again today
