[QUOTE="mrleorivera, post: 349782, member: 8966"] I'm sorry for you loss. It totally sucks to lose a pet even if it is an insect. We spend a lot time and effort taking care of them; from setting up their habitats, caring for their food, feeding them, interacting with them. We form emotional attachments, and its totally natural to be upset, cry, get angry etc at the loss. Insects don't understand what's happening, but we do, and that's enough. I can empathize with you, I had several Carolina mantises that I was raising and of my final 4, 3 of them mismolted and I had to euthanize my female. Only two males are left. I'm sure that all of us here have had similar situations. In any event, I hope that you're feeling better. -Leo [/QUOTE]
