Luna dies


RIP little Luna..
She was 13 months old.
This was the one who was sprung from her cage by accident when Sithreal broke into the room where the mice are. She survived seven (7) cats on her way upstairs and hid out in [livejournal.com profile] rialian's pants. She was almost done in by the Great Goddess Ossana but was found by someone when they went upstairs for a moment. Then (to her relief or chagrin? I guess I'll never know) she was returned to the safety (and relative boredom) of her 10-gallon tank...

Wellp, she was the most vibrantly colored and sweetest tempered mouse I ever had. Sometimes I thought she wasn't a mouse at all...

She's survived by her "sister" Ramona, the transgendered mouse. If she was a she. She never did have any babies though "she" lived with Ramona all her life.

Thanks.. One good thing about micies is that they seem to live on in their relatives, somehow. It's much easier to find an identical Luna, even with the same personality traits, than it is to find an identical Sithreal, for example...

Finding an identical snakey is even easier than that. My original candy corn snake Asherah died a couple of years ago, and I found another, identical snake and called it Asherah Version 2. I really can't tell the difference. Eventually the Version 2 part just faded away...
