Habits we have acquired because of our pets.

Quote:It took me a very long time to learn that I no longer had to sleep diagonally on my bed!   I must have slept that way for a good 4 years after she left

That is so touching and so funny at the same time.

I rushed home( or at least thought of it ) to look after Peter the wonder hamster for months after he died. He had a stroke and needed a lot of special care.
Now I keep forgetting that Barrie is gone. I have almost gone to his tank to feed him. For a year after Jake Krinkle Snake died I was still picking up food and thinking that it was the right size for Jake.

Quote:That is quite touching. You thought of Blueboy probably before you thought of how it would suit you, just like it was for me with Misty. Blessings to Blueboy 

Blueboy was with me when I was still a student. Things were not too fancy in those days. When I got a nicer place my first thought was how much nicer it would be for him. You are right, I thought of Blueboy first. I am still doing it. I know he would love the garden I have now. I would love to share it with him.
I was leaving Calgary and then Alberta when he died so I had to leave him.  I left him in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in a special place. He would have loved it. My heart will always know where that place is.


I think I will always want to live in a place that Blueboy would love.
