Am I being an arsehole to think this is a bit ridiculous?

It seems like it sets a precedent. I have three cats, will I get a day off each time one of them dies ?

Maybe the dog was all she had. ? Maybe she just left a bad relationship? Have some compassion

@YeOldeGreyhound

My deepest condolences.

You have done the most loving, unselfish thing possible- at terrible personal cost.

All the love in the world to you.

I believe her spirit is still there with you, and always will be.
