[Oracle]

It takes me nearly two years to get over losing a pet such that I can mention its name without tears welling up ....

oh oracle, when i visit the graves of one of my other cats, that have been dead for 4-7 years, i break down and cry. more like weep. i could solve the cyprus water shortage.

GG ... do you have your pets buried in a Pet Cemetery?

Mine get buried (once dead of course ) near their favourite spot in the garden (2 rabbits, some fish and one cat so far in the present house). Oh and one terrapin, which has since been exhumed, for display purposes

Would you consider pet taxidermy ... or would that be too painful as a constant reminder?

Not too sure if my experience actually qualifies, but I will recount my story and you good members may judge whether or not it does.

I visited my Great Uncle 'Patrick Muldoon Snr' (a notoriously riotous individual) at a time when he was seemingly hell-bent on disposing of his entire fortune on drink and other hedonistic pursuits, I must confess that I really should not have been quite so critical of him since I too have been known to dispose of considerable sums unwisely.

However, since Great Uncle Patrick was also a fairly substantial landowner, I quite bluntly informed him that he should perhaps donate a parcel of land to me, adding (quite arrogantly) that I would probably make better use of it than he would.

My comments were met with a thoughtful expression, Great Uncle Patrick extended his hand toward me and, as I made to accept his handshake, received a hefty kick straight in the goolies followed by a comment that will live in my mind forever.

"There you are my boy, I'll start you off with two acres !"

I did not actually 'cry', but be assured, my eyes watered.
