Sleep Tight Milo, My Little Man
I never thought i would be writing this so soon, and it has come as a total shock
Milo, my little brown velvet chinchilla. my 4 year old boy my little snuggums who i has been with me from just 12 weeks old who would sit on my shoulders for hours has crossed the bridge Milo came to me quite by chance, when i won a cage on ebay. we went to collect the cage, only to find it was a chin rescue who was closing down. Milo was born in the rescue and was just 12 weeks old, he came home with me when i got him home, i noticed his eyes didnt look right. he was blind, it was genetic, he had never been able to see, and never would. i feel it was because of this, that our bond was so close, he loved to just sit with me, and was a huge softy snuggle bum. it soon became apparent just how badly bred he was, he was a small chin, and as he matured it became very obvious. he had the squished, domed head, classic to animals with neurological issues, but i never thought about that with him for a minute, although i often made remarks about his squashed face, it was adorable, it made him so unique, i never thought i would loose him so young. We found milo passed away last night, he looked peaceful, like he had just gone to sleep, i suspect it was neurological, he just didnt wake up          run free my special boy, in a new world of light
