Daisy, my beloved Yorkie, left us on April 1, 2006. It was a terrible loss and this site helped a lot in the days following her departure.

For reasons to complicated to explain, I now have two gerbil boys. I have had a lot of fun making their habitat as comfortable as possible - just the kind of place gerbils would like to live. Although they are cute and I like them a lot, I don't have the deep attachment to them that I had for Daisy. But, maybe that is better since gerbils don't live very long.

One day I would like a dog again, but until then gerbils are great small pets - responsive, cute and easy to care for.

Hi, Daisy's mom, please permit me to offer you my congratulations on your new companions. It doesn't matter the size or physical form of our companions - - each and every one is precious in their individual way. It is perfectly natural to not feel the same "bond" for your gerbil companions as you share with your beloved Daisy. Each relationship we share with each of our companions is uniquely individual because each companion is uniquely individual. This doesn't mean we "value" some companions less - - or more - - than others. It simply means that our relationships are uniquely different with each individual companion. So please do not feel "guilty" about how you feel for your gerbil companions - - your love for them is quite obvious in your efforts to provide them a happy and healthy environment for them to live and thrive under your care.

I hope today is treating you, your gerbil companions, and all your family kindly, Daisy's mom, and that you will have a very peaceful evening blessed with your beloved Daisy's sweet Living Spirit to comfort you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, and please let us know how you're doing.

Peace and blessings,
moon_beam
