Ms. Pokey 2005-2008

Jul 18, 2008 14:39

Ms. Pokey was just over 3 and a half years old.
I took her and put her to sleep today. I won't go into details... but she lost a lot of weight and she didn't recognize me anymore.
As the hubby put it: She's off to the big wheel in the sky with auto-poop-cleanup and Jenny-flavored snacks to chomp on.

She really loved chomping my fingers for some reason.

I didn't know that hedgies are prone to cancer once they hit 3 years of age. But regardless of that I wasn't going to try to keep her here just because I didn't want to let her go.

She was a very good hedgie.

I'm sad.
