Pumpkin went to the Bridge



We're furry sad because today our own Feline American Pumpkin had to be helped to the Bridge. His diabetes hadn't been furry stabilized this month an' he kept crashing. This morning, his blood glucose was low an' he had to have some Karo syrup. He went to the v-e-t this afternoon when his organs started failing. The Banfield v-e-t said that it was time ...

We'll miss our boy of orinch: William Jefferson Pumpkin.

Godspeed, dood. 'Til we meet again ...

Goodbye Pumpkin... I am sure Pumpkin is very important to you and losing him is definitely a pain. I also lost a rabbit last year and it is still painful. If only it is possible to search all rabbit hutches I will do that just to find my pet.
