RIP Nibbles

Sadly our resident chipmunk Nibbles has passed on. Our time with him was short but hopefully we gave him a good home while he was here with us.

Aw... I'm sorry, hon. Little critters like that are such a joy and you were very very good people for taking care of him rather than leaving him to the mercies of the wild (which are, for the most part, nonexistant.)

Thank you. We tried our best, but from what I understand of chipmunks it's very difficult to care for them so that they live a long time in captivity. The stress usually gets to them, which is what I suspect happened here.

Oh .... *hugs* I'm sorry to hear that you lost Nibbles - he was a sweet little guy, from what I knew of him.

Thank you. He was a cute little bugger. I am still amazed that he came right up to Lonewolf and Kathy that day we found him. It was as if he knew we would help him and came to us to ask.

Awww that's sad to hear. Poor little dumplin. Now he can rest in peace.

Yes. It's just a bit sad because we all thought he was doing so well. I can only suspect the stress of living in captivity got to him or there were injuries we just couldn't see. I hope he is resting peacefully now and that we did well for him while he was here.
