I have my pet Misty of almost 5 years, she is my baby cat. We never could have children and our pets were our children. I lost Samantha at 14.5 years old black & white cat. Loosing her was tough. We don't think we could have been more in sorrow if she was a human baby. I still go to her grave after 5 years and cry. To me pet of the day is great.
