I have been very sad having to deal with the loss of my chameleons. I feel like someone has ripped out my heart not just once but multiply times. At first I was in shock and denial then anger and depression. Since tax season is over I am staying busy to keep my mind off everything but it’s still so very hard. These guys have been a constant part of my life and brought me so much joy. I feel devastated by their loss. We buried the boys in our little grave yard beside the house. They each have markers and flowers. I have had many long cries, prepared memorials, photo collages and talked with many of you here about my losses. Some people don’t understand the pet/owner bond and would never understand my pain the way my friends here have. Some of you have gone through the same feelings that I’m going through. Chameleons are way more than “just a lizard” to me/us.
I have been spending way more time with the pets I have left and enjoying every single minute that I have with them. I know they need me to care for them and they help to keep me going. I have tons of work to do that I didn’t do when I was working so I am staying busy catching up. I have also been able to spend more time here on the forums but still trying to keep away from the more depressing post.
