    Michael..I'm sad when any family member with more than two legs go's away.
    I'm sad to hear.

    I love all animals.
    Love horses and dogs.

    Get the photo's out and make some frames for'em. And make a stable door, gate with their name on it in brass. And dates.

    We think that they'll be with us forever sometimes.
    He/She musta been a charachter alright. What a fun horse to be with.
    Really sorry to hear.

    Tony.

    Don't pass them by! Be daring and caring!

    Dampen their misery....sit with them and talk a little.

    Buy them something to eat and a tram fare to a local mission.
    I'm so lucky that I've somewhere to live and have family support.

    Sorry to hear about your loss Michael. The passing of a not just a pet but a freind really does cut you to the quick, may his memory live on in you and your wife's hearts forever.

    I whipped a clump of tail hair from daughers pony when she died, it hangs on the photo frame and she still gives it a pat as she walks past, almost 5 years ago now.
    If you can't whip the hair (if you have some) get a fly tyer to do it for you.

    thanks everyone for the replies, I'm going OK but SWMBO is heartbroken, I feel guilty that I'm not as upset as she is
    Iain, what thread did you use to whip the hair? ATM, It's in the cat coffin

    Cheers
    Michael

    I used a waxed Gossamer which is made for fly tying, if you like send me a clump and I will do it for you, just send a PM and I can arrange it, just allow a week or so for postage, it is only a 2 minute job but I have a lot of different coloured silks I use for fly tying.
    No charge I might add as I share your grief.
