Snuggles Ann, I'm glad you have those photos and those memories...and that Green Day song, how cool is that?
Yes, it's a day of firsts, every day. Every little thing...even today the sweater I wore has a few strands of his fur on it. Refuse to pull them off. I know one day I will wash this sweater. I think I mentioned that when the vet shaved his back leg to put in the final injection, I asked for the fur and he put it in a zip lock. Wish I had asked for more. Geez, another regret and guilt trip! I have it next to his photo and I get it out and kiss it now and then but I'm afraid eventually if I handle it too much the fur will sort of dissipate.
Something that has made me feel a little better -- I found on Amazon they sell some pretty pendants that are tiny urns, so you can put some of your pet's ashes in those and wear them around your neck. What do you think of that? I kind of like that. One by Valyria is a celtic knot. Very pretty. Not today, but one day, and one day soon, I may get one so I can carry my boy around with me. If you care to look it's on Amazon and I just searched cremation urns for cats and it was down on the first page. There are several other pendants and also key chain urns. I would have never thought they had such things.
Ahhh....it just still hurts so much doesn't it? I grieve with you.
