My Chinchilla died today...

He was with me for almost 2 full years, and I'm guessing it was old age. I got him from a friend who couldn't keep him, as she was allergic to him. So she gave me a large cage and toys, food, care instructions, etc... And he's been really cool to have around. His name was Ozzy*, after the rock musician.

Rest in peace, little buddy. <3

Chinchillas are known to get spook easily and become sickly from stress. my wife and I have a chinchilla, and she's had that him for ages. I nicknamed him "codger" because he's nearly as old as me. coincidentally, his actual name is Rodger.

I lost a cat at its first months. They were twins, so only one survived... And I am sad not because the cat died, but the other cat is a complete annoyance...

I'm sorry for your loss.

I know how it feels to lose a pet.
But I don't want to know how it feels to lose a child.
As I see me cats as me kids.

Thanks for the support guys. We'll be cremating his remains on Monday. Heaven help me if one of my cats ever dies... Like @DinohScene said, they're like children to me.

Very sorry for your loss. Poor critter. :( I rescued ferrets for awhile. So heart wrenching when they passed. I am with @DinohScene. My cats are my kids. Can't stand the thought of losing them.

I love them, they are brilliant animals. My rabbit died 2 years this Febuary 2017, as he stopped eating for no reason and lost a lot of weight, so I had to get him put down at the vets, as they tried drugs and nothing worked.

Still gutted he went and I work in a park and see wild rabbits, which always reminds me of him. I just hope there is a place in the afterlife were animals go and you can be reunited again with them, when it's our time to go.

    I was working with a foreign game dev/publisher at PAX East years ago and was so close to being able to dump one of their pre-alphas for their new game from their 3DS dev unit but didn't have an SD card reader with me lmao 😭 I was boarding with them and free range of their dev unit to (mostly) do as I please, but just didn't have the hardware I needed for it. sad
