I'm so sorry, Wiix.

I'm taking care to sterilize everything he came into contact with. All his tiny toys and pillows and blankets. Just in case I decide to get another one. I miss him so much. He was a joy to have. I loved him so much.

I have had over 30 of them some 6 at a time but I can only handle one at a time now. I may or may not get another one. We'll have to see how things go.

Some died very young, some lived to be 12 to 15 years old. I have had fun with all of them.

Next thing I have to do is put him in the lake, back to nature and God.
.

Well, he's in the lake. All the sterilizing is done. I think about him a lot. I miss his tiny face.

I'm starting to think about getting another iguana baby.

I had Bela' almost 2 years.

I don't know. Maybe, maybe not.
.

I still miss him.

Yesterday I reread this thread. And I started thinking about all the iguanas I've had and lost. Especially Bela and Skookie. He used to run up and down my leg while I was doing dishes. And when he died, in my arms, I cried so hard I hurt myself sobbing. He was such a joy to take care of.

Tonight I am crying for Bela, I can't stop so I figured I'd write it down in here. Maybe it's all the things that have happened to me since he died, that's why I'm crying. But he triggered this emotional breakdown.

I have a picture of Skookie here on my desk. I wish I had one of Bela.

May he rest in piece. My sweet little boys.
.

You have my sympathy.

Losing much-loved animals is never easy.

I just ordered a stuffed iguana on EBay. Just a little something to sooth my broken heart.




Something to hold onto in the night.
