I'm so sorry for your loss of your precious furrbaby Ruby. I,too,had to let my Spooky girl go heaven on June 23, 2010 and I know how you feel. I had the same tears, the same thoughts, the same sadness--- and still do. But I've learned in the past 4 months that Spooky IS with me. I "see" her at the foot of my bed. I "feel" her little tongue licking away my tears. I talk to her almost every day and she still gives me good advice. I hope your time of healing comes with good memories and that you too will begin to know her presence with you always.
