Not at the minute but had them in the past. don't get me wrong it is really sad when both go and I'm not devaluing cats in any way, but I tend to find losing a dog leaves a much bigger hole

Yeah, I know you weren't saying it wasn't hard to lose a pet cat. And, since you've had both, you do have the experience to compare.

Having never had dogs, I really can't agree or disagree. I do love dogs, and the main reason I've never had one is because of the care they need. They need a lot more care than cats, and I have issues with picking up dog-poo.. [I realise that makes me sound really lame].. but at the same time, I wouldn't be the kind of dog-owner who doesn't pick up after their pet.. so not having a dog is my solution. :/

:(

Awwh.... poor Littliest LT.
