My name is Rocky. My human parents rescued me when I was a tiny baby. I was fed with an eye dropper for several weeks, every two hours, by my mom. My blog will follow my daily adventures. And believe me I have a lot of them!

Rest In Peace, little Rocky

I am heartbroken to have to say that Rocky died this afternoon. He had been in and out since we let him free. He had been inside since Saturday morning and was fine. This afternoon he wasn't acting like himself and died shortly after Richard got home from work. He was in his bed with his little "hands" crossed. :(

Enjoying fresh air and his freedom.




These were taken this afternoon, he just wanted me to hold him.


His final resting place. We will miss him so much.

I will be uddating his blog(and mine) in a day or two. I want to share some great pictures I got of him enjoying his freedom!

  2. Sorry to hear about the little guy. He knew he was loved and he certainly seemed to enjoy his time both outside and snuggling with you. It must be heartbreaking.

  11. Oh, boy. I'm a squirrel rescue person and ... I've had a few similar experiences. I am aching still. I miss Mrs Squirrel, my first ever, and have been missing her for a over a decade. My last squirrel passed a year ago at the ripe age of 9. My empathy... Let's be positive here. Rocky, Mrs Squirrel and many more are pain free and had a good life. :)
