I think my next pet will be a cat. When you live alone and you live in a building, it's really difficult to have a dog. You have to walk him 3x a day. You need to get someone to house-sit when you leave town. Owning a dog is a huge responsibility, even more so when you live alone and you don't have a yard.

So I think my next pet will be a cat. But I am going to wait for at least a year or two. After having that huge responsibility for the last 13 years, I'm going to take a break and live resposibility-free for a while.

i was in your situation a few years back. a cat would be perfect for you! cats are better companions then they get credit for.

Rupert,

I am so sorry to hear about Duke. Take things one day at a time. It took me a year an a half before I got another dog. I lost my first baby girl to lymphoma too. She was only four years old. One day at a time and each day will get easier.
