That's what I thought the last time I lost a pet. (He died five months after I lost my other one--I'd had both of them for over ten years--so it was even more heartbreaking.) I was planning to wait a while (at least six months or maybe over a year) before I got another pet, but my boyfriend got a kitten for me just a few weeks later. I still miss my other cats to this day, but I have to say that having a new pet took my mind off a lot of things and brought new joy into my life, so I now think it is better to get a new one sooner rather than later.
