Saying good-bye to an unforgettable pair

It was quite a dificult morning as I had to bury two very special friends of mine. Elliott and his sister Noni were both laid to rest this morning along side their former cagemate, Scarlett, who died back in November. Both Elliott and Noni came home with me at roughly one week of age from a pet store where they were intended to be feeder pups for a customer's young snake. The customer who ordered them never came to pick up the babies and so I rescued the cold, blind and hungry babies from a slow death of starvation. I hand raised them myself with much love and effort, plenty of baby food, and lots of smiles. Elliott was neutered at 4 months of age and returned to life with his sister along with his new aunties, Scarlett and Pixie. Brother and sister were very bonded to each other throughout their lives and now that they are both gone together, they will be sadly missed. Thank you, Dr. Martin for your all of your help and care and in making their passing as peaceful as possible. Good-bye my sweet babies. Aunt Pixie won't be far behind. Elliott aka "Bubby" and Noni, R.I.P 8/03-4/1/05
