Oh, Bob

Oh, Bob.  About a month ago sweet Bob started getting sick.  McKenzie could hear him wheezing when he breathed and he was starting to lose his appetite.  For our chubby Bob-o-fat that was very unusual.  We took him up to the vet clinic at CSU and they gave us two diagnosis: he could have a respiratory infection or he could have cancer.  If it was just an infection then antibiotics should help.  If it was cancer then there wasn't much they could do.  The sent us home with antibiotics and pain killers and we hoped they would do the trick.  The medicine seemed to help for awhile.  He started eating some specialty soft food and his breathing seemed to be a little better.  McKenzie was the perfect nurse making sure he had everything he needed to be comfortable.  But unfortunately it wasn't enough.  Bob died and we were all so sad to see the little guy go.  Time for a trip down memory lane,

Here's a picture from when McKenzie and Cambrie learned they were getting a hedgehog.

The day she got to see him for the first time.

Celebrating McKenzie's birthday.

The kids introducing him to his new home and building a maze for him.

Bath time!

Grumpy face.

Enjoying his Christmas present.

When Moki came into the picture it didn't take long for the two of them to become friends.  

Watching them play under the couch together was hysterical.

Bye little guy.  We're going to miss you.
