Goodbye Sweet Simon

[nsweezie]

My sweet little gerbil Simon has died tonight.
He was over 3 years old, so he was a senior citizen, but I wasn't prepared to lose him.
Simon was such a sweet, kind gerbil, he loved to lay in the sun in his cage and also loved to have a treat of peanut butter.
Simon's 'brother' Alvin is now all alone, and, as Alvin is also over 3 years old, I am worried that missing Simon may send Alvin downhill.
Please keep little Alvin in your thoughts, and wish Simon a speedy trip to the Rainbow Bridge.
It is amazing that such a small creature can bring such joy when alive and such sadness when gone.

I'm so sorry for your loss, :( and I completely understand what you mean about how such a small creature can give you so much happiness, and how when they're gone, the saddness is overwhelming.
R.I.P. sweet Simon.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
Gerbils are so much fun to have around, I just wish they would live longer lives.
