Bek - 22/11/01 - 27/1/02

[den]

Bek died in my hands about 10 minutes ago.

I noticed she was a little sluggish last night but she ate well. I checked on her this morining and she seemed ok.

I looked in on her just now and I could see she was sitting on the floor in distress. I picked her up.

She settled down, sighed, and died.

I'm pretty gutted.

Maybe that's why Mom abandoned her......poor little girl. At least you were there to comfort her. I'm sorry for your loss. :(

Aw, bugger. :(

*hug*

You did the best you could.

[arcturax.livejournal.com]

Damn :(

I don't know what to say Batty... *winghugs you* You tried, your really did try your best and I'm sure wherever Bek is, she will somehow remember your kindness when her mother left her.

The thing is you gave her more life than she ever could have had had you not rescued her mother...

Comfort

I've had that happen with an abandoned kitten I nursed for months before... I'm so sorry, but at least Bek knew *someone* cared... :(

[chezmax]

That's too bad.

*hugs for denbat*

Oh god... poor little bat. I'm so sorry, Den.

[weyrdbird.livejournal.com]

Damn. *HUG*

At least she died with someone that cared.You did the best you could for an abandoned bat youngster. There aren't many who would attempt to take that on.

Pardon me while I take a breather to go wipe my eyes and blow my nose.

I am so sorry. :( Poor Bek, poor you. She had the best possible care someone besides her own mom could have, right up until her last minutes. That's the most anyone could ask.

Awww nuts.. Poor Bekbat.. Sorry to hear that Batty..

[freso]

*blinks* I guess there's really nothing to add that I'm sorry as well... *sighs* just remember, it might seem to be the end, but in fact, it's just the beginning of her life elsewhere... and one day she'll return to you and reward you for all your kindness... :)
*hugs tight* But for now, rest assured that she is in a better place... :)

Damn

I dunno what to say that hasn't been said. Sorry to hear that. You did your best, and she had a safer, longer life than she would've without you. These things just happen.

She died being held by a friend, not alone and terrified.

There's a poem that a friend of mine gave me - it's originally for/about cats, but it applies here, and I warn you, it made me cry buckets.

They come in their own time, unlooked for,
asking only
for a bowl of food, a soft hand,
and a piece of your heart.

They go on their own time,
in their secret ways,
taking your heart with them
to heaven

Who can say that there isn't magic in the world, when the untimely death of a tiny bat on the other side of the planet brings such an outpouring of sympathy? I'll hold Bek in my thoughts all day, and probably longer. Thank you for sharing her life with us. Waugh, and now I'm crying. :[

[klwalton.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry.

[dizzdvl.livejournal.com]

Dang.

I'm glad lil Bek was with you at the end. I will miss that little bat, and I never met her.

*Sniff*

Darn nature.

I, too, have lost wee ones that have come to me for a short time. There is a copy of Rainbow Bridge on my website ( Under construction) if you'd like to read it. It has always helped me whenever I've lost a ferret or cat... Or any other creature that came into my life and left suddenly. Take care.
