As some of you may have read in the health section, Herbie was taken ill suddenly last night with bloat. I rushed him to the out of hours emergency vet but despite their very best efforts he finally gave in and passed over to Rainbow Bridge at 12.30 this morning.

Herbie and his brother Curly were always my chunky rex boys, huge, scruffy, snuggleable, real little characters - I can't believe Herbs has had to leave us so soon, he would have been four in October.

From this at a few weeks old ......

He was absolutely gorgeous, a very handsome boy. I'm so sorry you lost him.

I'm so sorry I missed his emergency. You did all you could, but bloat is a nasty thing.

I hope that handsome Herbie is happily munching away on the sweetest grass imaginable where he is now.

Big hug for you!

Thinking of you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Thank you all so much for your wonderful words they mean a great deal to us all - it's so nice being able to share this sad time with people who know and understand what you are going through.

The shed seemed very strange this morning and whilst I was greeted by the rest of the gang, it didn't seem right to see Curly sitting waiting for me by himself.8... My gorgeous boy is now laid to rest, sleep well sweetheart.
 
I'm so very sorry to hear about Herbie Sandra :(

I hope you and the girls are ok

Rest In Peace Herbie
