It never gets easier
My first direct experience with death came at an early age when my kitten was hit by a car. Back in those days cats were indoor/outdoor pets, today I’d never think of letting my cat outside. Heartbroken, I cried for days and pleaded with God to give her back to me. But of course that can’t happen.
Over the years I’ve brought many animals into my life. Each one enriching my life and then passing, leaving a hole in my heart. I’m sure my heart looks like swiss cheese as I said goodbye to another beloved pet.
