Too soon? Help :(

[DogLover9501]

Thank you all, you have really helped.

I was scared of wanting to replace him, as I thought it might have been a common feeling with grief, but I don't feel like I want a kitten because Tigger isn't here. I also wouldn't go out looking for a kitten exactly like him. I feel like there is room in my heart, and in this house, for another.

I also feel like the excitement, the welcoming and loving a kitten would lighten the mood. I'm not sure if that's a right reason? I've also never had a kitten since Tigger, when I was 10 years old(as Emma was an adult), and since I've been thinking about when I first got him, and how small he was, I'm getting some type of kitten fever. I just don't know if my reasons are right, but I feel good about them, except for feeling horrible because of how soon it is.

Michelle, that poem is so beautiful. The thought of my big guy "running, jumping, and playing again" really hit me, as he couldn't even walk on his last day. So that is very comforting.

I'm going to think about this for a while, and see how I feel...

I feel that if you Tigger was also sending you a message. I would think it over another day or two to be sure that this is what you want. I am sure you will make the right decision.
