I agree a warning would have been nice, but I also totally understand that that probably wasn't the first thought either.
I'd lost a really really good rooster this last mother's day (of all days) and I'd finally gotten to a point where I wasn't a moping soggy mess about his vacancy. I was not ready to see something like this.. at least not here. I'd wanted to reply earlier with something maybe helpful but I was so suckerpunched I've had to kind of avoid the topic and this section of ARR altogether. Felt 36 year pet anon had the best response anyway, what else could I add to that.
I'm sorry for your loss anon, but I do unfortunately know how you feel.
