Mally and Perry

I have had the sad news that two of my Findowrie babies have recently died. Findowrie Son of a Gun (Perry) had lived a very long and happy family life with Brendan, Julie and Thomas for many years. He was very much loved and will be badly missed by the whole family. He had become a lovely, sedate old gentleman when I last visited him at Christmas. Night night God Bless Perrywinkle,Sleep in Peace xx Findowrie Bizzy Lizzy (Mally) died on Saturday. She was only four, but had lived for 4 years longer than she should have done....let me explain. When she and her sister were born on the 9/9 2009, some of her intestines had been pulled out of her body by the umbilical cord. I sent my husband off to the vets with her to have her put painlessly to sleep. "I can mend that" says my lovely vet....and goes ahead and does it, completely free of charge. If she dies I won't charge you, if she lives we'll have a party, was his only comment bless him. We didn't know if she would make it for a long time as I'd heard of similar cases having adhessions develop, but survive she did, and went to live with my very good friends Anne and David and her 1/2 sister Shona. Sadly, in the last year of her life,it was discovered that she had a heart valve problem.Whether it was the result of an infection at the time of her birth, no one will ever know,and on 12th October she was put painlessly to sleep, having enjoyed a short but utterly brilliant, hectic, full of fun, four years, one week and three days. Thank you Anne and David for loving her so much and giving her such a wonderful home. Sleep peacefully little Mally.xx Bye bye Findowrie kids, have a good catch up with all your other departed family members who have been so loved during their time on this earth xx
