AZChins
Pro Cage Cleaner Champion
Last night went in to feed the chins and was making my rounds talking to everyone and checking them over.
I got to Margot and Alidia's cage and Margot looked like she was sleeping. I reached in to touch her and she was gone. She looked like a little angel with her head tilted just so as it rested on her paws. She was just gone.
Margot was 19 years old, going for 20. She looked fabulous for a chin of her age and was always friendly, albeit opinionated and a bit bossy. This wonderful little girl was here with me for 8 years. She never was sick and she was a good girl for the most part. There were no symptoms, she just passed away in her sleep.
As much as it hurts to lose her I realize that 19 years of age is a very old chin and she fully took advantage of chinnie long life span. Most likely her heart just stopped or she had something else just wear out. Although, you'd never know it to look at her! She looked like she could have been a chin 10 years younger than she was.
If you ever get the opportunity to take an older chin, do it. It's a very good experience. Margot was 11 when she came here, old in a lot of people's opinions. The eight years I got to take care of her were priceless and precious and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world!
Goodbye, Margot. Thank you for being my little girl...I will always love you.
