Dear Aly, I am so very sorry for your loss and I know how painful this is for you. You are so caring and loving that I feel Oreo had to know what it is like to be adored. You gave him that, Aly.

As far as that email goes, Cincy's Mom reflected how I feel as well. That person just doesn't understand. I hope that he/she will think about the nature of one's love for animals and theirs for us. It knows no bounds of *ownership*. Your grief was shared at the right place, Aly....with those who care about you and love you.

Person who emailed, Aly. I hope you can find it in your heart to apologize to her.
