Deckhand has posted to report the death of one of the family cats. In my mind, that is about as sad as losing a member of the family. Please pay a visit, to offer some consolation. As I mentioned in my comment, some believe that pets pass over a Rainbow Bridge after they die, to await us when our time comes.
Have you ever read The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold? It was narrated by a girl who had been murdered and was in "heaven", defined as a place where everything is as you would wish it to be. After being there for some years she saw a pack of dogs go running by, and one of them was her old dog who had died. It recognised her immediately of course.
