Happy birthday to your Rupert @M. Frary
@just.wing.it I am confident there is a place for the animals, too.

It's only six months since Nouri left us and now we lost our second cat, Blofas.
This is sad, too sad.
I was always complaining against him for chewing my trees/plants and now he is gone because he -most probably- ate leaves from plants which were sprayed with fungicide...
Two pets gone in such a short time... from accidents... I don't want to believe it...
Our hearts are bleeding...

I am feeling your pain my nellie, it's so hard to loose one, but two in one year, I know what that feels like. I hope you remember what all the good things were with these two, and the joy they brought into your life.

Monday night we had to put our beloved Chocolate Lab, Oakley, down. At 14 years old his life was becoming miserable. He had lost control of his bodily functions Saturday and cried all night Sunday. Now he won’t suffer any more.

Thank you friends, thank you all for your kind words of sympathy...
It is exactly the way that Carol put it : it is devastating
Yesterday, we were having him at home, the vet administered intravenous serum with specific treatment for his liver in a last and desperate effort to help his organs.
Then he had difficulty to breathe and was puffing but it was late at night and the only vet clinic open was far away so that the end would come while transporting him there....
My son was trying to help his laboured respiration was giving him kisses of life....
I know human life is invaluable and people are suffering a lot of pain and diseases, but to see a little creature struggling in such a way it makes your heart bleed...
Thanks again everyone!

On the contrary our misfortune was that we couldn't find our vet or any vet to put him down...

I feel you. Anyone who has been in the same situation feels each other.

Hello everyone,
It's been some time I do not participate as often as I did in the past. But I am here and I check every now and then and read posts here and there....
Serious family issues, health problems plus unfortunate situation with my bonsai... I asked my daughter to check on the automated watering system during my short vacation and the result is I lost my best tree plus some other less significant to me....
I was completely frustrated to a point that I was wondering whether I would keep on cultivating my trees.
But a good bonsai friend encouraged me and changed my mind and I came back to my trees.
We had to put our dearest Nellie (seen on my avatar) down due to her illness. Was diagnosed with multicentric lymphoma. Symptomatic treatment administered to her caused other unpleasant reactions. Doctors said that costly chemotherapy could only give her some 1-3 more months of life BUT with all the symptoms worsening. She couldn't breath.... specifically during the night, she vomited, she was exhausted more and more every day. So we had to make this difficult decision and our Nellie is now resting among her friends Nouri and Blofas.

All things must pass.
As for bonsai, why don't you just keep one ?

Yes, you are correct. Nothing is eternal.
Regarding bonsai, I really do not have too many of them. However, most of them are in development stages.
But I guess I am pretty attached to them and that's why I was dissuaded by my friend.
So I could not keep only one and give away the rest. I want them to grow and be transformed the way I have envisioned (the three trident seedlings included)
