I try to aviod this forum as much as possible. But tonight is the night I post here. Tonight I had lost my beloved Moose.She died tonight 3/2/03 at 10:30pm Moose was my favorite out of this group. Her face was just the cutest. She wasn't crabby and never bit me. She was sweet and I loved her so much. When I went to feed Peppy and Moose I found Moose on the bottom of the cage. Motionless, pale. She looked up at me and pretty much cried for help. I didn't know what to do.My first thought was GLIDERCENTRAL! But I needed to wait for my vet's call. Moose wasn't looking too good. She will drink alittle of Pedialyte then crash. I called my vet Dr. Chavez in a panic and he returned my call. He told me to take her to the clinic and he will be there in half an hour. I rushed over there...Moose died in my boyfriend's hands. I didn't know what to do. I waited for Dr. Chavez to arrive at the clinic. He told me that Moose ate her baby, and that she was extremly skinny. He mentioned that he had another glider (Tazgirl's Rowg) that just passed away with similar problems. Only difference is Moose didn't make it too see the doctor. What did I do wrong!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> I loved her so much!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> She is in one of my bonding pouches right now. I'm going to bury her under neath a nice shady palm tree in back yard. I MISS HER SO MUCH! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> Why couldn't I catch this sooner! She seemed perfectly fine yesterday and I saw the lump there yesterday! MOOSE I MISS YOU COME BACK TO MEEEEEE <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" />

Tom's right. I have had two gliders pass away in this manner. One minute they were fine and playing with me and then a few hours later gone. They don't often show us signs of being ill. Please don't feel guilty as there was nothing you could do. I'm so sorry this happened, but Moose was very lucky to have you in her life as you were lucky to have her. She is now in a great place and you will meet up with her someday. I'm sure she will be watching over you until that day comes.

Monique: words cannot express the pain and sorrow I know you are feeling over the loss of Moose. It's hard enough to lose any glider but even worse when it's such a special one. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Peppy in this time of need.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers. I still cry myself every night to sleep hoping wishing that I can just have one more day with her. But I know its not going to happen. I miss her so much and everytime I look at Peppy and her cage, my eyes water up and I burst out crying again. Ever since that night I would stop and look at my collage i have of all my animals and Moose's picture is the biggest one from all of them and I just stand there and cry. Why did she have to leave me? She left a gap in my heart and I dont want to admit it to my heart that she is gone and that her body lays in my backyard underneath a shady tree.I put a blanket in her box just in case she gets cold and a picture of her family just in case she forgets how I look. Moose I miss you! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" />

Monique and Gil,
I sit here tears rolling down my face barely able to see the screen. I know the pain you both feel, I share that emptyness that comes when one of our animal friends departs to the next life. That so a tiny creature could leave such a crater in my heart was astounding. But the love and joy I received most definitely outweighed the pain. I am so so sorry and my sympathies extend to you both at this difficult time. May you always cherish their memories and may relief find your hearts soon.
Jen

This is why I never read in this forum...it's just too sad <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" /> I just wanted to let you know that I am sorry for your loss. Please give Peep some extra attention <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/heartpump.gif" alt="" /> during this time.

Monique, I am so very sorry for your loss. I know that there is nothing that I can say at this moment that will make it any easier for you. Just be comforted in knowing that there are those of us that understand your grief and mourning for your dear little Moose. She was such a special gift to you. It is so touching how you took such care in selecting her final resting place.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, Moose, and Peppy, Dorothy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crying.gif" alt="" />, Bandit <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/littleglider.gif" alt="" />, and Gypsy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/littleglider.gif" alt="" />
Dorothy, Falk, and Prissy
