16. We know when we adopt a pet this is likely to happen. But we do it anyway that's because we are human.

And we have love to give. Grief sucks. So sorry you lost your dogs. My outdoor feral cat is now living on my back porch is 15 years old and I’m trying to accept the fact that he’s not gonna live forever. My indoor cat is getting on, I guess you’re gonna live your pet but you don’t like to think about it. Have good thoughts about your babies
