Hello,
My beautiful baby Hurley passed away yesterday. He was 3.5 years old. He had a procedure done for a dental abscess and suffer bloating post anesthesia. He had extremely difficult 2 days, and passed last night after a lot of struggle. He was my most sensitive darling boy.
I'm so devastated. I had lost his partner, Peanut, 3 years ago to scurvy. Atleast I have some comfort thinking that they've reunited.
I don't know how to feel right now. I feel like my chest is filled with a thousand rocks.
When I lost Peanut, I got Hurley a companion on the same day.
Hurley and Pichu lived together happily for 3 years. Now Pichu is a little over 3 years of age. I put Hurley next to him to sniff. I hope he understood that Hurley is gone for good. Pichu does not seem to be having any issues with food or anything as of now. I'm sure he misses having Hurley around, but he isn't showing any specific signs yet. Pichu is more used to human contact, comfortable sitting with us, sleeping in our bed, and overall doesn't mind being handled at all. As of now, he's taking it okay I guess, but then again it's only been a day and maybe it's too soon to tell.
To be honest, I don't think I have it in me to get another fur baby again. I know I sound incredibly selfish, but I can't help it. I don't want this cycle to repeat.
I would really appreciate some advice on the matter. Is it okay for me to just have Pichu, I'll surely give him tons of attention and love and cuddles. Please share your opinions.
