Oh wow, thank you for this long message! 😯 I just saw it now, my notifications are wonky.
Building an sort of altar sounds like a good idea, thanks for that! I'm not sure how spiritual I am, but creating it would give me a moment to reflect and remember anyway.
My best wishes to you, it seems like for you your pets are as much family as they are for me.
I hope we can heal or at least cope in some way until we see them again
