    I pet my cat Oscar that I had for 20 years as they put him down... That was a mother fucker, bro.. They didn't even make me pay that day... They opened the side door and told me to just call when Im up to it.. I was about as rough (emotional) as I have seen myself..

    Similar to Muddy's story...a friend of mine had a shepard for years and they travelled everywhere together..

    I met the friend in grade 7 and he was one of the most grounded, unemotional people I've met. His mother passed away in grade 12 and my friend displayed no emotion (that we saw)

    when it came time to put down his dog Rogue...my friend took him to the vets, held him as they gave the injection and then called us to give him a ride home....he was so upset he couldn't drive

    When I think back about that day I remember him laying on the kitchen floor and not being able to move his back legs.. All three girls were sitting around him petting him and quietly talking to him for the last time.. Picking him up and putting him in the carrier knowing he had spent his last day in the house was hard.. My 6 year old still draws pictures of him.

    I've never been able to have a pet...allergic to all cats and most dogs....yet the little critters always seem to crawl all over me and lick me


    I really can't imagine the loss....maybe that's one good thing about never having a dog for a buddy for years

    You would probably be fine with a pet, being around one every day would give your allergies a tolerance to the pet. Same premise as getting allergy shots that inject you with small doses of what you are allergic to.

    not really....had some relatives that thought they would acclimatize me to pets....my throat closed after week 3 and back to the doc's

    and tried the shots for cats when I was 13....had a reaction to the shots and had to stop

    Really? Surprised you reacted to the shots.

    Not surprised about the week 3 thing though. I'm usually in my 3rd week of ragweed season every year before my immune system gets overwhelmed and I go to the doc. Getting thrown into an environment with a full time pet to acclimate you? That's like jumping into a pot of boiling water.
