8. I believe most of us are dealing with PTSD. The last 2 decades have been that painful.

As someone who did the very same thing as you -- come across a pic of a beloved cat who, tho older than usual, died way too soon for me, I say treat yourself gently. The holes we have in our heart from those we've lost - whether they be our four-legged friends, or family and/or friends lost to death or due to Trumpism... the loss is real, physical, and painful. The only way thru it is with each other, recognizing we're all feeling the same to one degree or another.

Blessings on you and your canine; and may your feline be there to greet you when you finally cross your own Rainbow Bridge. May Bast bless us all.
