Title: Moki - thank you for the last 9.5 years
Post by: LoveYouMoki on April 29, 2010, 05:11:59 PM

Moki, my wonderful, vibrant chinchilla passed away on Tuesday. I posted her story in the health section. She fell and mostly degloved her arm one month ago. It was stitched closed and healed. The stitches came out 2 weeks ago and she looked great. Her health and activity levels were great until she suddenly crashed and passed away within 15 hours.

Moki, you were a bright carefree little girl and shared your nest box with Indy, who is 11 and will sorely miss you. She is also survived by Echo who is 10.5. Moki, it was a pleasure to watch you bound around on free runs and to see you nibble on hey, pellets, and treats. You were generous with your snuggles and always ready to pop out of the cage. You were so adventurous and were always the first to explore a new tube, or box, or to go even higher.

I'm so, so sorry that you fell and cut your arm. I was thrilled when you healed and seemed to recover so well. We are all in shock and beyond belief at your sudden decline and departure. I would have done anything for you - I just wish I had seen that you were in distress sooner. I wish I could have done more. I would give anything to go back one month and to protect you. I'd even go back a week or a day if I could. I'm so sorry. You deserve many more years of bounding around and happiness.

We love you so much. Thank you for sharing your life with us. You made us so happy and we are eternally grateful. I know you loved living with us too. My bright star, my feathertail, my Moki Pokey. You are loved.
