    I had a cat called Laurie for seven years and then it disappeared either stolen or it died somehow perhaps run over by a car.

    My kitty was 6 this fall. I've told her she has to live forever because she's my sweetie, she purred back which means she agrees with me.

    We had a beautiful half-Persian gray and white cat that was a member of our family for 15 years.

    We got our present fur kids at the Shelter shortly after that one died in 1996.

    Not long really, I bought a rabbit for my little girl a while ago but it escaped, then I bought her a dog which she was accidentely cruel to, we realised she was too young for a pet when she threw it down the stairs (she was only 2 at the time) so we got a cyber pet but it kept making the computer crash.

    I would love a new little dog but might wait a while.

    Sounds familiar. Growing up my family went through quite a few pets. Cats, dogs, birds, fish, snakes, rabbits.... and absolutely none of them died of natural causes.
