In Memory of Stanley

[Die Fledermaus]

Oct. 7, 2003 - Nov. 21, 2004.

He was the son of Makeeda (RIP) and Zeb; Rainy was his grandmother. Stanley is survived by his all white sister, Blanche, and his aunts Ebony and Hypatia, and his dad, Zeb.

He was showing only the very first stages of what killed his mother - Cushings Disease, an endocrine problem the symptoms of which include fur loss, dry skin, and eventually scabby skin. Oddly, he was found dead with those symptoms not even remotely as advanced as with his mother. I assume the disease works differently internally depending on the animal.

RIP, Stanley. I'll make sure you do.

I'm so sorry to hear of another one crossing the rainbow bridge. They are such kind sweet little creatures that should have a much much longer life span. My deepest sympathies to you DF.

Thanks. I am actually glad he went easily and it did not linger as happened with his mom, Makeeda.
