Gosh, Ratz, I'm so sorry. I hate to hear that. I know how both you and your vet feel. I never got used to that, even after working at a vet's office for so long. I can tell how much you bond with your animals. It's a great thing, but causes us so much pain in the end. I'm sure you, like me, wouldn't trade it for the world. People always used to say, "I'm so upset, I don't think I'll ever get another ____". I'm glad you're going to get a new puppy. And, I'm glad you're taking that turtle. It'll have a great home! If it wouldn't upset you too much, take a gander at my little staffie, Zeke. I put some pics of him in my photo album. I told my wife that if anything ever happened to him, she'll have to commit me.

I'm sorry this is off of the topic of this forum.
