My pet died during the time period when it snowed. It was very devastating and sad. I felt bad or guilty for being excited for the snow when he had just passed two days before. I did not believe that he died at first, so one step I took was making myself realize that he really had passed. I also saved his little wrist band that he came with when I first got him. I also saved some of his fallen feathers. I learned no to take anyone or anything for granted.
