My chinchillas didn't make the trip home.
I'm not sure what happened. One minute they were fine. A half hour later, they were gone.
It's just too much. Bandit last week, James and Henry this week. I feel like I'm being punished for something.
It was horrible. I opened their cage, and they were just lying there, like they had been sleeping.
I couldn't believe it, I hyperventilated and screamed. Finally I just held them and cried.
Every couple minutes I remember that it wasn't an awful dream, and the sadness just fills me up again.
I know deep down that it's not my fault, but whenever the sadness hits I can't help but think I did something wrong.
I wish I could go back to yesterday morning. I walked into their room and sang to James. He just sat and watched me.
I miss them so much.
