I do not understand families that will not keep the pet of their loved one who died. This loving, caring, feeling being was a friend and companion to someone they loved and was loved by them. They not only loose the human they love but end up in a cage somewhere and do not know WHY! OH! I get SO mad about this topic! My sister still has our mothers cat, saying she still has a piece of Mama as long as Boo is still alive..
