You have to first "dismiss forever" the first one, and then take 1 hour to cast the Find Familiar spell again.But then:(a) the familiar doesn't die at 0hp (maybe it could die by another effect that bypasses 0hp, but otherwise it's immortal)(b) you can temporarily dismiss it and then recall it as an action, no need to spend 1 hour to cast the spell again(c) if you cast Find Familiar again without first dismissing the previous familiar forever, you change the current familiar to a new form but it's still the same spiritthese suggests to me that it makes it more natural for a Wizard to keep the same familiar forever, as changing it (the spirit) doesn't have any benefit. If you decide you don't even need to change its form, you might cast Find Familiar just once in your life.</blockquote>
