I had to put my almost 15 year old wiener dog, Mars down on Saturday morning so I didn't make it to any of my weekend streams, or Monday Movie Night in the discord server... Finally off the couch and fired up the computer today. Normal event time will resume on Monday. Hope all is well with everyone. Sorry I am just now updating yall.

I am very sorry to hear that, We've had to put down our cat of 13 years the other day as well. It really sucks. You mustn't feel sorry for your inactivity! It's very understandable
So sorry for your loss as well. Pet loss is truly indescribable. I feel for you! If you ever need to chat I am around! Sending prayers <3
I don't know if it's easier or harder when they're an old pet. On one hand you have so much time to prepare compared to the sudden loss of a young pet, but you get so much more attached. My family had to put down our 3 year old dog a few years back and it was devastating. We still have a ~14 year old rescue that is getting the best life she could ask for, but I dread the day she leaves us as well.
Similar situation happened to me, Rogue. I have said the same, I am unsure which is worse. I had two wiener dogs. A male and a female. Mars and Tiny. Tiny was my younger male and I lost him to spleen cancer suddenly at only 8 years old. I thought Mars would undoubtedly go before him. It took us by shock. I miss them both dearly. Both situations are horrible to deal with in different ways. Hugs.
