I don't know if it's a consolation at all -- our brains are illogical, a lot of the time -- but people do say that time is essentially frozen back home, while we're here, so it's not like she knows you're gone. It's not an abandonment.
When you say 'not small', how not-small are we talking?
And no, unfortunately. My mom was allergic, so she never kept any; I always just lived vicariously through friends, the ones I met while I was at school. And after I moved out this most recent time, I was pretty busy with-- well, I don't know what to call them apart from 'apocalypse duties'. It wasn't a good time to take in an animal. I wasn't even sure there'd still be a world standing to keep them in, to be honest. Then I came here.
