Its sad when we lose even the Smallest of pets:/ My Garden has so many now & iv only been liveing here 4yrs!!!
29 Jun, 2011
yes agree but the most annoying thing is not many take losing small pets as serious even though it really is. My neighbour was on about his cat dying breaking his heart which was sad and I agreed I told him hamster dying was very upsetting asnd he burst out laughing - grrrrrrrrrrr
