h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

i really should write in here more often. the main reason i wrote this is to say that my lovely wee rat has died

i got home after a brilliant day with my friends and found Snuffles curled up in the corner of his cage. he alnost looked asleep. i must have spent about 3/4 of an hour curled up on my bed with him before i felt up to burrying him. i loved him loads and i always will.

on a lighter note i have truckloads of coursew*rk to do at the moment which is so not fun.

i think i need a

I'm sure Ming Mang can understand you best... she lost 2 pet Rats in the last few months (Actually the first one dies quite a while ago, but the second died just recently).

thanks

Aww... poor Lizzy.
I know what it's like to lose pets: We had a cat that we'd got on my 1st birthday, and when we came back from our holiday last summer, Claire (my Mum's freind's daughter), who'd been minding the house, said he'd curled up and died under my bed! I loved that cat. Poor old scabby Gess...

i had a lovely cat

she was called Shooshoo. she was our grandad's cat but he moved to a flat and gave her to us. she was already 13 when we got her and after about a yeat she got stomach cancer . she got thinner and thinner until she had to be put down. you'd have thought that i'd have got used to pets dying by now. i havn't though

and i'm sure that my lovely rat Smudge hasn't got much longer. he just lies on my lap and sleeps whereas before he'd be scampering all around my bedroom

*sniffle*

¦M¦

I don't think you ever get used to pets dying...

i never have

I never want to. People who don't cry are too weak to cope with their feelings. It's beeter to be sad and move on... We got a new little kitten called Molly, but she'll never replace Gess: He didn't drive everyone up the wall like she does!

i think you're right.

i have a bad habit of mentally burying things. it doesn't stop me from liberally dampening my dead pet's fur though

There there...
*Gives Lizzy a big !
