Two of the oldest checkerboard boys were helped to the bridge this morning. They were said to 1.5 years old when we got them in December but since the previous owner didn't give a damn, we don't know for certain. (And we know they didn't give a damn because before surrendering 20 boys to OHS, they had 20 girls that were not taken because they were potentially pregnant and they didn't make arrangements that if OHS decided to euthanize them, to contact them.)
Both were two of the sweetest boys of the group. They looked markedly frail over the past month and despite eye drops and medications just didn't really improve. After checking on them this morning, it was decided to help them to the bridge.
They at least spent the last 6 months being spoiled. I've been working on my rodent mix and I really couldn't test it on this group...because they eat everthing you put in front of them.
They've been a real joy and I'm so glad I adopted them.
Rest in peace little giants, you have brothers waiting for you at the bridge.
Booh and Bou have been prepared for private cremation at the Oregon Humane Society.
