I understand this is a parrot forum, but I simply have a strong need to get this off my chest. I have been a tad innactive for some reasons.
Last Thursday evening I have received the dreadful call - my almost 14 year old dog has passed away. She was living with my parents since I moved to another country, but she has been with us for over 13 years. I still remember the good old MMS my mum sent me to show me the young dog they found at the weekend house. And since we never found the owner, I begged for to keep her, my little pup... And so she stayed with us for all these years.
It is so hard for me right now, especially after still grieving after Zeleni. Oh heck, I am still grieving both of my old cats who died less than 4 years ago. Now all of my first pets have passed away. My dog's apssing was like a final nail in the coffin for me regarding my emotions. I am not sure how well I can handle it.
My pup was well old, but maybe 3-4 months ago they discovered she had a tumor on her belly. The first x-rays have shown that all her vital organs were clean, so the operation took place, and the tumor was removed and she was nursed back to health in no time. Sadly, after a month and a half things apparently started to get worse, as she had some new growth on the chest. The x-rays showed the worst fears come true - the cancer has spread to her lungs. In less than 2 months later, she has quietly passed away.
My whole family is devastated. The last pet in the flat has left for the heaven. I joke that my good old pup is jumping and chasing the cats and my bird Zeleni now there, happily without consequences. She had a good life. No, an amazing and loving life on Earth. I am still grieving as from the first day since her passing, I just don't feel as if it is getting any better. I guess it is just too soon and too much for me losing two of my best furry/feathery friends in less than 2 months.
I focus a lot on Pascal now, poor thing has no idea why this silly human is producing so much of the salty watery droplets, nor why is there so many evil papertissues on the table....
