When we had Toby put to sleep last month, I was really surprised at how sad I was. Like, I knew it was the right thing to do, but it still made me cry.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Yeah. When my old dog died (the Beast, as I used to call him), I sat on the floor of the little cubicle in the vet's office and cried for about ten minutes. He was my closest companion for fourteen years, after all.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's super sad, you guys! I mean, they aren't people, but they live with you for years and years. And are awesome.
Treat yourself to a cupcake?
I was just thinking about a cupcake!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Wine and cupcakes sound like a good plan. May flights of angels sing Homer to his rest....

Thrive to spite them
Even though I didn't have Dean or Maddie for very long it still hit me hard. It 's always hard to lose a pet

Not sure what "a" cupcake is. I thought you had to eat them in pairs and to do otherwise is a faux pas. Do I misunderstand?

Much love to you, Jesse. I am so sorry for your loss.

Oh askye, I think that would be even harder. I had the consolation that at least he was old.

Hee. If I can make it out in public, I will take that under advisement. I mean, I wouldn't want to do it wrong.

Time spent with cats is never wasted. - Sigmund Freud
I don't think our society properly respects the grief of pet widows. If your mother lives out of town, you may see her 20 days a year. You spend 24 hours a day with a pet. They are far more part of the fabric of everyday life.
I know you and Homer will miss each other, but never regret the days you were together.
