I am so very sorry about your loss. Been there, too, and believe me, I know exactly how you feel.

Coming home is the part I hate the most. I look for him to come running to the door like he usually did, and when he doesn't, I go straight to my room and look for him. I would always find him at the bottom left side of my bed, looking happy to see me. Now when I do, there's just an empty space.
This sounds so familiar to me!! I just couldn't bear the emptiness and the silence after I lost my RB Katz.

sam5263, your Lion sounds like a very special friend; I can see in your picture how beautiful and sweet he was.

You may eventually find some comfort in the thought that he's now painfree. But losing a beloved friend is never fair...
