Sept 2006 - Feb 21 2008

Artist, philosopher, mischief maker, play pall and all around good friend. He leaves behind one wife and grieving human family.

A bright shining star went out today and moved on much to soon.

Goodbye dear friend. We will always love you.

He cut himself on the 17th. Everything looked to be healing fine. On the 19th his cuts bled all over him but he had anteater spit all over him too figured he opened them up. Last night he began passing bloody feces.

We rushed him to the vet this morning before they even were open and got him in. But they could not save him. He was even bleeding into his own arms and they were swollen.

His body is being sent for an autopsy.

We bleached all we could.

I made this image because I had to DO something but there is nothing that can be done.

Goodbye my little love.

Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Dear Stewie, you have brought so much to some many people, not just to your family and friends there but also to all of us here in PT Land. We love you and will miss reading about your antics and adventures.

I am about to spill tears right here at work. Trying to hold them in for 20 more minutes so I can leave.
This is just sooo sad. You didn't even have him that long, because I remember when you got him, and I've only been on PT for a little over a year.
I can't believe this. :(:(:(
RIP Stewie

Thank you. We are doing better. I haven't heard about results yet. There was no thread on his illness here because it was so sudden.

A Personal tribute to angel Stewie

Oh my gosh... poor Stewie. I hope they can figure out what caused all the bleeding.

How is Pua dealing with Stewie's passing?

Rest in peace, Stewie, we'll miss your antics on here.

Thank you. The early necropsy didn't show anything wrong but the bleeding in his intestines and a pulled muscle in one arm. No bleeding in his arms, vet must have thought that because Stewie had huge arms.

Pua took it better than I expected. She was sad and scared at first but went on with life and is a lot better and playful now. I'll post some of her photos on the general board.

I made a good bye video too
