Diana, the avatar I have is symbolic of the "White Buffalo Calf Woman". The image shows the the woman in two forms: the White Buafflo" and the "Holy Woman who brought the Sacred Pipe" to the Oglala Lakhota people. The Sacred Pipe is used in ceremonies and is kept in a Sacred place when not in use.

White Buffalo Calf Woman brought the Sacred Pipe to the people to learn the Sacred Rites and to pass on the knowledge to others in a way that shows we are all related -- in the eyes of Creator, we are all relatives and help each other.


Walk in Peace and Harmony.

I'm sorry for your loss. I've never had a pet I didn't consider a part of my family, and losing one well, I can feel it even today after 10 years.

Phyllis, your puppy, I did the same thing. They know too and the comfort of being held vs, being in a room of strangers, I don't see how that's eccentric.

My best friend, "Shelby" a beautiful Springer Spaniel, he could tell the difference being inside the house in the basement vs. being outside in the country air.

When I carried him outside in a blanket and sat him under his favorite tree, he lifted his head to the sky and closed his eyes to the country wind, just before he died. Where in the basement, though it was quieter, nothing.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Maure, thank you. I am going to make sure nothing disturbs her little body. We have been plagued with things going wrong lately including the collapse of our newly remodeled garage. When the snow melts, IF the snow melts a new garage will go up. Under the new cement foundation, which will be under the new garage will be our Missy's final resting place. I have a beautiful piece of wood and a wood burning kit for a plaque.

We had buried a tiny feral kitten six or so years ago, in what I though was a perfect place. Until we saw bulldozers digging the area up. That, will never happen again. I know her soul, her spark is gone, but I want her tiny little body respected.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Elleise, I couldn't agree more that our pets are very much a part of our family. I think my family would be quite dysfunctional without animals. Shelby must of been a very special pet, how fortunate you were to enjoy Shelby's life. I have had my life enriched by every pet I have ever had.It is amazing what animals can teach you.

I am so sorry to hear about Missy. I know you will miss her and your heart must be broken. How are the other ferrets doing? Busy as usual?

Thank you. I do miss her. I know the other ferrets miss her too. Quinn started biting right after Missy never came home from the vet. I know they don't understand why she never came home. They are both settling out now and are back to their usual sweet temperaments.

What a beautiful cat! Thank you Rosie. It has been difficult. I still look for the third lump in the blankets.
