On wed.aug 8 i came home from a job that starts at 445am. It was around noon. I was making my rounds with the kids and i noticed a fowl smell coming from the sugar glider enclosure. Found one of my girls with wet tail..aka..bad diarrhea. Her belly was swollen and she was only alittle dehydrated. Battling a vit c deficiony made it hard for her to walk. But mahla was a fighter..that happy little girl never let anything get in her way. I wanted someone to talk me out of bringing her to the vet to say goodbye. No one did. The vet said with tons of meds and sub q fluids every hour...she MIGHT live . in November i tried this with another glider..she got worse. So i made the call. My mahla is gone. Now i wish i would have tried.she was strong.i feel like i failed her. The people in my life have been very cold about this.parents say good now u have less animals.boyfriend didnt even hug me as i cryed wed night. Mahla came from good people with her sister. The couple was moving overseas and couldnt take them with.they were so loving.she was loving. Thanks for reading.

:60: Oh I am so, so sorry for your loss. I feel for you :(
 
so so sorry...people who don't love animals just don't get it....
 
I'm sorry for your loss :( You cared for and did what you can for Mahla, that's all that matters now.
 
I am so sorry:( It's so hard when the folks around us don't understand the heartbreak of losing a beloved friend. Please know that we understand here, and feel so bad for you.
 
I’m so sorry for your loss. It is so hard to make that call for a beloved pet - warm thoughts and hugs to you.
 
I'm so sorry for your loss, that's one if the hardest decisions to make as pet owner. You made the right call it is the grief that is making you second guess yourself...I'm even more sorry to hear that the people around you are not supportive.
 
My deepest condolences for your loss of Mahla. You likely made the best possible call regarding treatment. It is your big heart and kindness that yearns for a better outcome, one that was highly suspect.
 
*hugs*



So sorry you are feeling alone at this time of grief.
They are such cuties - lose one and (don't we all) vaguely feeling we should have done more is truelly an extra blow.


I am so sorry you had to say goodbye.
 
Well, you are not alone HERE!
Hey, you saw that darling out in love, and that's an eternal gift.
We're with you.
