I'm terribly sorry Triad, you tried very hard to get him well.

Its a shame, and I know we are all so very sorry to hear this, and hope that you will feel better soon.

Be happy in knowing that he's in GREAT hands and is happy and healthy again!

He's with Mikes Magnus, who also just passed away! They are running around having a great time.

Take Care,

Thanks everyone.

I know that he's probably having the time of his life right now with Magnus to play with. But it still hurts terribly.

And it is worse because it has now ruined the whole month for me and I turn 18 in 11 days so I'll still be sad then.

how sad you are , I am quite a sap when anyone of my animals dies. I even cry when I raise wild bunnies, and then set them free. I'm happy but sad to see them go and worry how they will be.

It always feels very sad, but hey be so very thankful your going to be 18 in 11 days and YOU are healthy and able to enjoy life, as many are not.

Be sad for awhile, thats totally normal, and its good to grieve, as long as you get happy again soon.

**Remember there are alot of little uro's out there that are in need of a GOOD home and someone to care for them.

If you feel extremely sad and would like to talk with some great people, who will listen, to everything you have to say as long as you want to talk, then try going here.

Bunch of awesome buddies of mine there for ya, as long as ya need them.

"When a scaly friend passes away, God is adding to his herp collection." (well, I changed a word or two but the meaning is still the same.) I'm not exactly religious but the words really seem to help.

im so sorry to hear of your loss. i know you tried hard to save him. sunfox... i am religous and that is a really great way to think of it. it made me smile i just lost a chameleon that i diddnt have for very long but i loved him. after trying everything to get him healthy again he died anyway. but its ok because god is taking good care of him. thank you.

Oh Misty,

I am so sorry. You have my deepest sympathies. You gave the little guy everything you possibly could, and I hope you find some comfort in the fact that he lived a happy life with you, and as you and Eve said, that he is frolicking about with Magnus now.

So sorry to hear about Orion. Magnus will be a good buddy for him. I am sure that one day soon you and I will have a smile on our faces just thinking about the two of them playing together or sharing a nice big red hibiscus. - Mike

Yeah. I guess it has been a bad week for the both of us huh?

At least both of us can talk in the pet loss forum since we've both lost someone very dear to us within the past week.

If you need to talk, you can email me.

Thanks,

Misty
