We are down from three cats and three dogs to one feral cat aka Sheldon.
Not sure I have it in me to endure losing any more pets.
I know just what you mean Charlie. Losing "Charlie the Gato" was really tough, and he wasn't even our cat!
We are also down to one cat now, a feral that was living through the toughest, deepest snow winter in a long time here, under our wood trailer and in our woodshed. He was truly wild for such a seemingly young cat, and it took us until mid-summer to get him to come inside our door. We left food out for him that winter, but he wouldn't approach the food with us anywhere in sight, so what his early history was remains a mystery, but someone must have mistreated him &/or betrayed him while quite young. He had been fixed, but other than that showed no signs of having been domesticated at all.
In honor of how he came to be with us, we named him "Stray", and though definitely a part of the family now, he remains quite independent and aloof!

Scary thing is, he may actually be young enough to outlive us!?!?
That too, would be quite sad!!!
