maya.m, Many of us have lost our own little buddies in the past where now we have moved on and yet there will always be that gap in our life that we can reflect the wonderful times, the sad times as well as the funny times that we had with them. Getting another buddy doesn't fill the gap and never will. Yet, it does help in the healing process over time. I lost two of my beautiful cats over 20 years ago and still have photos of them that I cherish. Lost another cat that I loved about 7 years ago through terrible circumstances.
Also lost my little dog named Porky who died when he was 18 years old. In fact, I used to sit Porky on my knee when posting on Hotcopper.
Having said all that, Yes, I miss them all.
However, here I am with my beautiful Black Labrador Kelpie Cross, Luka who is 8 and sitting on my knee now is my lovely cat Treddles who is also 8. Both of them bring a smile and warmth to me everyday.
Will I miss them when they die.
Of course I will.
Even though I have lost alot of beautiful well cared for pets over the years, I find it's much better for me to have animals in my life than not to have them.
They are very much a part of who I am.

I so agree with you.
I love my current little one with all the love I can give, and he loves me back.
But there was some very special connection with my pincher, that I can't explain.
Maybe the fact, that I was the chosen favorite of his love and affection....
Will miss and love him/his memory as long as I live.
