Goodbye little one.

I'll never forget my young lil mouse when I brought her back from Kelowna as a present for Freddy. Such a skittish little thing, and yet very curious. She was an albino, so her eyes were red. I think because of this lack of pigment she had vision issues. She used to move her head slowly from side to side when she'd look at something.



I named her Fiona. She was such a good mommy, and had many babies. All the babies she had were black, further cluing me into her being an albino.



This rare little gem passed away today in my hands after I tried warming her cold body for a couple hours. The last thing she did was nuzzle into my neck...

I miss you so much my lil mousy.
I can't believe you're gone :'(
But I'm really happy you were here for a lil while.
Godspeed Fiona, and give my love to Freddy.
