Today Wally passed away when I accidently left my Jack Russell in the same room with him. I feel terrible and miss feeling the little furball scamper up and down my arms, nibble on my fingers, and cuddling in the palm of my hand. What saddens me even more is that I can’t get another pet like him – my dog can’t jive with rodents.
It was something I never could imagine happening to me. I mean, I rescued a baby squirrel. It livead in my room. It climber on my shoulder. It ate from my hand. It was the cutest thing I’ve ever laid eyes on — and it was a once in a lifetime happening.
And I ruined it by not paying attention to where my dog was.
*sigh*
Life is hard sometimes.
I’m sorry Wally. Fairwell. You’ve no idea how much I miss you.

I’m so sorry, Kait. Wally was adorable.
We brought home a tiny baby squirrel once. It was the day after hurricane Ivan. We were surveying damage and checking on friends and found him under a pile of limbs in the middle of the street, all alone. Taylor and Wesley’s older brother Trevor (who lived with us at the time) brought him home and cared for him. He named him Ivan, after the hurricane. We had him for about a week or two before he died. He was adorable and followed Trevor around when they went outside. We were sad to lose him.

Thanks guys. It was rough for the first day or so…but we are all doing better now. Still miss the furball and hope someday to come across another — this time making sure the dog is locked away somewhere!
Have a merry Christmas, y’all!
