Little Losses :(

Sorry for the influx of posts today, I have been slacking on my blog. I actually have been working if you can believe it!

We have had two deaths in our little family in the past couple weeks. Kelsie lost her little Bella about two weeks ago. We don't know what caused her death, and she was only 6 months old. She was looking a little lethargic one night and after feeding her water from a Soyu dish and carrot and peas baby food, she didn't wake up the next morning. Kelsie has decided to "Go it alone" for a while.





This past weekend we lost little Lizzie "Monkey Tail" She too was not looking so good on Thursday. We broke out the Soyu dish again and the baby food and after sucking down some water we decided to keep an eye on her. She was really thin and wobbly. Friday night she passed on while I had her bundled in a blanket. That's a sad sight so see....them suffer and then go. Kourt will be picking Nibble "Pock Eye" a new companion this week. After a laugh about how Nibble survived two weeks without food at Bobbie's when she escaped from her cage and then lost her eye to an unfortunate eye popping accident leaving her with only one eye...she is feeling better about the entire thing.

Both animals are wrapped in burial shroud (paper towel) placed in burial bags (zip lock)await the thaw to be buried.

Oh that is so sad about your little animals, that makes me sad.
Well good luck with the next ones that you guys get.
