Yes, we've had yet another pet funeral.
Actually, a double pet funeral.
Juma's two green anole lizards, Dragon and Lyra, died within a couple weeks of each other. Juma figures it was a communicable lizard disease. I doubt that, but whatever it was, we'll miss watching them chase crickets.
We always have a little funeral to help Juma cope and grasp, in his six-year-old way, a little bit about death. This time, we buried them in our backyard under a homemade gravestone.
(Juma thought the digging was a blast.)

Goodbye Dragon and Lyra!

this may sound insensitive, but it made me laugh when i read that another pet died. However I am sorry for your loss---again.
Oh, I know, I know. We are no Rus-n-Kelly, that's for sure.
I'm not-so-secretly relieved to be pet-free for a while.
