Dear Stacwase,
First let me apologize as I have just seen the Memorial on Jake...I want to offer my Deepest Condolences....I have heard and seen Sweet Jake on Pet Talk for a Long Time..
Godspeed to The Rainbow Bridge,Sweet Jake....
We Love You ....Here on Pet Talk...

Now what should You do???
There are No Rules.....Time is what it takes....
The way I look at it,Each & Every Pet that we outlive Carves a Special Place in Our Heart...One Special Place for each...They Will Never be Forgotten,Replaced,Loved More.....I just look at it as....I will Save Another Life....and give them shelter,warmth & Most Important LOVE!!!! and My Previous Pet will want that..
My Dearest Scrubber was 19 when he died....that will be 10 years ago on 09/06/04.....Do I think of him Every Day??? YES....
Do I have his ashes on my Nightstand???? Yes!!!
Was He My Baby??? Yes....It broke my heart in 2 when He died..

but Last Year...I found Hobo...who by the way....Looks Exactly like My Scrubby....He needed a HOME...I could Give that to him.Thats' when I realized...That is what Scrubber would want...
and Hobo has had a Wonderful Home ever since!!!!!

Please ,If You Need Anything...feel free to PM Me....I really do Understand....
Dear Jake
