Hi all! I can't say anything here that hasn't been said before ^_^

In all honesty, though, I started playing this recently because I had to put down my closest companion on Sunday night, my cat Misha. I'm having a hard time coping and this game is giving me a good distraction until I can heal properly.

I am sorry! Anyways welcome to BK and I hope you enjoy it here. And if you have any questions or if you just want to talk PM me. ( I lost one of my dogs last week I haven't completly got over it but I share your pain and I wish for all to gget better.)

Thank you so much Puddles, your sympathy is greatly appreciated. I've only gotten to the stage now of being able to talk about it, one day at a time.

I'm sorry about your cat. Last February I had to make the toughest decision of my life. I had to decide to put down my best friend of 17 years, my cat, Salem. It was very hard for me. Half a year before his sister, Misty passed. A few months later we lost our 13 year old dog as well. The most difficult thing of all that was realizing I was growing up. I lost all my childhood pets and had just graduated college. Life was really hitting me. It was a tough time to realize I had to grow up, and I didn't want to have all that responsibility and such.

However, animal companies are some of the best company you can have. The unconditional love they give fills almost every heart with warmth. The beauty of that is there are so many animals needing homes out there. You may feel like you can never move on. But you will always remember what Misha taught you about life. Misha is irreplaceable and will always hold a special part in your heart. You should share that love with another animal if you are able to someday. Right now take each day at a time, give yourself time to grieve and heal. It may take lots of time, but that's okay. I have a new cat now because I felt such an empty space in my heart. I am still sad when I see pictures of my Salem, or when my cat does something that reminds me of him. But it makes me happy... because his memory lives and I can share what I learned about life and love with my new cat (even if she is a bit of demon/mommy-issues furball!)

Do you have a picture of Misha? I'd love to see her. :)

If you want to talk about it feel free to PM me. If you don't want to talk about it and want to be distracted, feel free to PM me. 

I hope that you do enjoy BK though. We can be a supportive community :) Let me know if you have any questions or need help ^^

Hello Nightingale! Thank you for your sympathies and I apologize for the late reply. I wanted to scan in a piture of Misha to share with you, but I kept crying everytime I tried to. Today was the first day I finally was able to scan in the picture without being a sobbing mess. Here is ma Misha, my furbaby:

We had a service for her this last Sunday and so we've finally begun healing, but there are still nights when I cry. And although we might not get pets ever again because of the pain their passing brings, I do hope that we will eventually make enough money where I can regularly donate to pet shelters to help other animals out.

And thank you! I do so far enjoy BK, I have already met some very supportive people ^_^
