I say new, it's from a charity furniture shop where my Dad volunteers. I donated my 3-shelf bookcase to them as it's being replaced with this huge 6-shelf one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Subscriber padawanbeck84 471 Posted August 17, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 17, 2020 45, 549 - The house just doesn't feel right when you've lost a pet *hugs* @caz63 My mum lost her Labrador Jake recently. They'd had him for about 14 years, from a puppy, so he'd reached a good age and he was such a lovely, gentle dog - and a companion to my Mum as she's got a lot of health problems and had to take early retirement over a decade ago. He'd also been really healthy through his life, so it was especially distressing to see him become ill. I'm not sure Mum will have another dog - although she does have a painting that she made of Jake back in 2007, so she's got that to remember him by. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caz63 73 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 45 550 Thanks Padawanbeck84. It is so hard watching them go from a happy bundle of life to not wanting to do anything, our baby was always so full of energy up until almost the end,we have quite a few photos of him around the place, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber Malahide 574 Posted August 18, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 18, 2020 45551 Good afternoon. Sorry to read people here lost their pets. It must be heartbreaking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber padawanbeck84 471 Posted August 18, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted August 18, 2020 45, 552 - It's good that you have photos to remember him by @caz63 I still have a photo of our old dog. He died 20 years ago now, but I still keep the photo. It's a nice one - he's curled up on the sofa with his squeaky toy. Had a busy day at the library today - nearly filled the quarantine box again. The only problem is finding space for all of these books to go back on the shelves. We would normally transfer them to other libraries, but we can't do that at the moment. It also means we can't request books in for people, which is annoying as one of our regulars has been waiting for her books since February Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll see if I can send some over your way We've also currently got gale-force winds that are playing havoc with garden fences and wheelie bins. I'm glad I didn't have to go anywhere today. It's a day for staying in the warm and reading a book. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
