At which stage of pet loss grief do you feel you are currently at?
Ongoing from losing my sweet Rolo some months ago.
Jean and Amelia's Story so far
I thought my heart would break into a million pieces when my little hoody rat Rolo passed away in my arms after having a stroke which left him unable to move his back legs.
The pain goes on and my sadness deepens because now I have today lost my beautiful hairless rat Amelia.
I went to her cage this morning and her sister Esther came to greet me, but no Amelia. My heart sank as the night before I noticed she had a lump on her hind leg and found it hard to walk.With trembling hands I looked into her pile of fleecy blankets where they both snuggled up together, I touched her still body and she was cold and I knew she was gone.
So my Rolo please look after my sweet little girl over the Rainbow Bridge and play together with her and my other blue dumbo baby Misty.
