Play well at the bridge, Buddy.

Am I allowed to post a memorial for him here, as he's a Gerbil?

I got Buddy and his brother (Murphy) from P@H on the 8th of January 2009. Buddy was always the shy one and would only come near me if his brother was nearby. I tried so hard to tame him properly, he was always wary but tolerated handling and cuddles in the end.

He and Murphy were inseperable, always playing, tunneling, eating and sleeping together. Never once did they argue.

Then I woke this morning to find them 'sleeping' on the Megazorb which I found odd so I went over to find Murphy laying next Buddy who had sadly passed at the age of 2 years 4 months. He was fine last night so I think it was natural causes. It's heartbreaking to see Murphy moping about and frantically searching for his brother.

Gone too soon and NEVER forgotten. Play well at the bridge little Buddy. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx
