Yesterday I received grave news from Lucy and Linus the chinchillas' Mom. She let me know that Linus passed away, his passing was sudden and it left his family and Lucy very depressed.
Linus ( was neutered) had arrived at the rescue with three other chinchillas. Hermione and Harry, and Lucy. You could tell who was already paired up and were life long companions. Those pairs were inseparable. Hermione and Harry found a loving home quickly. But it took a while longer for Lucy and Linus. We were told that they were already at an older age of 7 to 8 years. Despite their older age, they enjoyed climbing and jumping to the extra levels in their cage. Linus loved pressing his nose at the bars of the cage and beg for treats. He was a smaller chinchilla packed full of soft fluff and love.
He touched the hearts of many people. We hope that Lucy will bounce back from her tremendous loss. The only thing that could have come between them was such a tragic event.
Our thoughts are with Linus's family and with Lucy. He will always be remembered.
