Are Elderly People Good Pet Owners?
My owner remembers when her grandparents decided not to have any more pet dogs. Her grandfather had one as far back as she can remember, but when Penny, the last dog they owned, passed away, they figured that they wouldn’t be around long enough to get another dog.
Little did her grandfather know that he was going to live many, many years more, until he was 97.
But this is a decision that every pet lover and owner will have to face one day, and we have an article that may help you a bit as you consider this question for yourself, or someone you love….click here for the article.
I think about this a lot as Pixel gets older – she turned 9 yesterday and I was happy to celebrate with her and we had a great time, but in the back of my mind I kept thinking, “OMG, she’s nine already, what will I do without her?”
I’m going to read that article right now.
Kisses on your cute little nose, Aspen!
