A dear friend died last year. She'd been sick for quite some time and had gone through many surgeries. She credited her dog for seeing her through some of her most difficult times. She was cremated and at the service, we were all surprised to discover she had had her dog cremated years before and their ashes were joined together before internment. Yes, they can bring so much to our lives.

I had Peanut cremated as well. She played such an integral part of my life, that I couldn't just let her go that easily.

Hi JKDE,

Welcome to the forum - Yes animals have such an ability to love. Last week's news stated that pets are becoming even more important as evidenced by a preponderence of people names as opposed to the cutsie pet names of yesterday, All out pet names were... except our current dog, Lucy.
