Good boy! Now roll over and play alive.

"I've already made arrangements to be flushed down the toilet."

Better to have loved and lost...

Angel fish

"It was three hours before we realised that he wasn't playing dead."

"When Mogs died we had him cloned, there were a few teething problems!"

"That's okay, Ruth, don't get up. It's for Fifi."

'How about that! I can finally reach that spot on my back!'

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, bowl to bowl."

"OOOOWWOOO!"

Doggie Heaven

'I wish these wings were for more than show.'

'We vowed to stay together until death did us part, Gregory, and the goldfish just died.'

Well, I talked to my parents. I explained to them that I understood our cat Magus had died. I told my folks they don't have to tiptoe around the idea of death. I know that Magus' body stopped working because she was old and now she's in a better place. Probably like Disneyland but with lost of pillows and tuna. Right, Rudy? Damn straight, little man. Hot chocolate on the house.

I need to figure it to break it to my parents that I understand about death. I''m going to sit them down and tell them that I understand our cat Magus died and that's why her body stopped working. I'm going to explain that death is a natural part of life and that they don't have to treat me like a baby. I get it. If they're still feeling upset, I'll offer to take them out so they can buy themselves a treat. If all else fails, ice cream.

Look, I really miss Magus. That's the name of our cat who died. I'm sorry, kid. That's not the problem. It's my parents. They think they need to protect me from the idea of death. They're tiptoeing around it. They told me Magus' body stopped working. To humor them, I asked why. Mom froze, ran into the other room, then faked laryngitis. Her voice stopped working.

"RIP Cup Cake, our beloved kitty"

"Sorry to hear your hamster died, Johnnie. But why are your digging such a big hole?"

"This next one is for Lucy, my huge dead goldfish."

"He was a very good boy."

'What - NINE whole lives for only ONE eternity?'

'He loved that dog.'

I understand that our cat Magus died. I miss her a lot. But I wish my parents wouldn't tiptoe around it. House of Java.net Cybercafe. You don't have to watch Youtube clips of CSI: Miami to understand that death is a part of life. The thing I don't understand about our cat's death is, who would've killed her and left a mountain of unresolved clues that only a crack forensics team can figure out? Where were you at 8:45 p.m.? The Youtube Generation grows up fast.
