In reply to the discussion: My baby chihuahua, Zatanna, left us a week ago. (pics included) [View all]Behind the Aegis
(54,864 posts)27. Thank you friend. I know you understand.
The pain is still very fresh. I was watching "The Simpsons" the other day and an episode that featured the song "I Want Candy" came on and I just sobbed. During her nighttime medicine routine, I would sing, "Who wants candy? Baaaaby candy!" She would wag her tail and gobble up her meds. My husband had to bribe her with treats, I didn't, I just sang to her. It will cause me to cry again when I hear the "baby shark" song, because we sang that to her too. When the doorbell rang or someone was in the yard, her hackles would go up from the nape of her little neck to her little tail and it looked like a fin, so we started calling her "baby shark" and singing the "Baby Shark" song.
The strange things we do for and with our pets.
