Lost one of my favorites tonight :(

I'm so very sorry, Becca- I know she was a real sweetheart.

I am so sorry. I have lost so many animals in my life time that everytime I lose another one it is worse than the last. I save some of their feathers that I find around the house after they have gone to a better life. It makes me think that perhaps they are always still with me even though I can't care for them anymore. They usually pass away in my arms, so at least I know that they know they were loved and cared for until the very end of their earthly life. I can't make up for your loss, but I do feel your grief and hope you will recover soon. Crying for a long time always fells good.

Mother to two handicapped cataract victim hens, one transgender rooster, and seventeen various assorted hens, three dogs, two cats, two fish, three grown children, one tolerant, occasionally fussy but great husband of 36 years.
 
Thank you! It always makes me feel better knowing that there are other people out there like me

I wish I could have been there with her or better yet saved her....I just kick myself knowing that I was in here laughing having a good ol time and she was out there being murdered

Even my dog tried to tell me, but I ignored him like a dummy

Let me share my experience with you-I can see you are heartbroken and blaming yourself.
I had a Black Austrolorp chick that had an injured leg. My DH and I splinted and exercised her little leg for weeks until she finally started walking on it-at that point she was finally able to go scratch around the garden with her buddies. 3 days later, we were sitting out by our pool and I heard a commotion not 50 feet away. I went tearing across the yard and found my little BA chick dead-she apparently heard my voice(I spent a TON of time with her, carrying her around, sitting with her on my lap, talking to her, etc.) and had come under the fence to find me and MY dog had killed her.
I blamed myself for that as well, but you know what, it just wasn't meant to be.
On a lighter note, I will NEVER forget my big, strong husband trying to give that poor baby mouth to beak recusitation(sp).
