We are currently petting a cat right now and my Kid is very fond with this kitten. I never thought of this. But when I read your post I realized that you are absolutely right. Pets are growing old too. Loosing a pet is just the same as loosing your love ones. Thank you for sharing this thought. I will remember this. So when the time comes our pet will leave us, my son would be ready for it. But as for now, I will let them both enjoy each others company and watch them grow up together ♥
