Tragic, Stupid, accident

RIP Nabaztag

It was death by misadventure- drowning. Nabaztag must have had his head pushed under while neck-wrestling, he got a lungful of water, he went into shock, and his heart stopped. At least it was a very quick end. Poor little guy just had his first birthday a few weeks ago.

It is one of those stories where if it happened to human kids, it would be all over the news. Horsing around in water 6 inches deep, and one ends up dead.

Some tiny solace can be found in that we did nothing wrong, and there was nothing we could have done to prevent it. Another random “lightning strike”, like the bowel torsion that killed Ferrari.

I am getting sick of digging graves.

 

Frustrated and Angry

And a bit shocked. I expect sad will come along a bit later. Stephen just found Nabaztag dead in the front paddock. His head was in the stream, so maybe he drowned in a play-fighting accident. We’re getting him PMed in an hour or so.

WTF?
