Little Evie was buried yesterday evening next to our little pet rat Edward.
Even when we cannot save all of the animals that need us, we can make a difference in the lives and time that they have. We can feed them and comfort them and give them peace.
I will continue to care for and raise Eddie as well as I can and help to find him a loving home where he can live a long and happy life. Once he has been weaned and has grown a little older I will bring another foster into our home for him to have as a companion to play with and learn from.
I am in awe of the fosters that have continued to care for animals for so many years. Their love and compassion is what has inspired me to foster in my own home, as well as volunteer in the local shelters. Without the support of those wonderful people I would not have gained the skills to care for tiny creatures like Evie and Eddie.
Saying goodbye to Evie is hard, but I will always remember the short time that she spent with me.
