BarbaraCat, I've lost so many animals in the past four years that I can't hardly stand to think about it. As ZH said, the compassionate way is probably the hardest way to do it. Yet, it is the most important thing that we'll ever do for a pet that is hurting. I know that Merlin is at Rainbow Bridge now with Tippy, Henrietta, J.J.,Smut, Eaglebeagle, Willhe, ClaraWhite, Spook, Xowie.....He was greeted by all and is being shown around by Tippy...because Tippy is the most dignified of all that have gone on. He loves cats and will be a very special friend for Merlin. Henrietta will guard him and make sure that he stays within the boundaries of the little group. She used to let Willhe groom her ears....the most hysterical photo that I have is of Willhe doing a "groom dive" down into Henri's big ear and Henri was just letting him do that without a hair twitching on that half chow/half germanshepherd body........On Mondays I light a candle for each animal that has gone on and I will light one for Merlin next Monday. xoxoxo Pat
