I lost my precious kitty Devon 5 weeks ago on Wednesday. (I wonder if Wednesdays will ever be normal again.) I miss Devy desperately. My apartment is so quiet and lonely. She was my only pet. I honestly feel that I have lost my baby. My child. I have never gone through so much pain. My children are grown and they have been very supportive but they have their own lives. There is a part of me that wants to get another pet. And then there is that part that does not. Last weekend my daughter and I went to a couple shelters but I found it very sad. It seemed to make me miss Devon even more. I look at petfinder.com a lot. There is a cat on there at an Atlanta animal control (which is about 4 hours from where I live) that looks so much like Devon that I can't quit looking at it. I am so tempted to get her, but then I wonder if I would really be better off (and the cat also) if I got one totally different from her. I am so conflicted. I know I would be saving a life if I adopted another cat. But I don't know if I can go through this turmoil again. I keep telling myself that, even though this pain has been horrendous, I would not give up the 4 wonderful years I had with Devy for anything in the world.
Does it sound like I should get a new cat yet? Should I get one that looks like Devon?
Any advise would be very appreciated. Julie
