I am so sorry for the loss of your Lea, as the others I too have been there. I lost two in 9 months and my Missy, like your Leah was my soul mate, my velcro kitty. There is no way to get through this other than one day at a time. Some days will be okay and others horrible. It does get better, but she will always be there with you and years down the road there will be times to cry and times to smile. Take the time you need to heal, you have both lost someone you love very much. RIP sweet Lea.

:cry: I am so sorry for your loss Kimberly.  I lost my Casey to CRF and I am still trying to cope after a year.  May time be kind to your broken heart and remember, Lea is not gone - she is always with you in your heart and mind.  I believe we will see our pets again in Heaven and that they do watch over us and want us to be happy.  Until you meet again.
