Rest easy little baby, God needed you more than we do. And I thank Meg for bringing cuteness into an otherwise-non-cute world. Thanks so much! RIP

I very rarely come to this site, and I have never posted a comment. When I saw this post, I decided to browse through the comments to see if anyone else felt the same way I did. Joanne did. And I’m surprised that very few others agreed with her. I can deal with the usual commentaries, even though I agree with aurora when she says they’re cringe-worthy. I would never post and complain about it, but I found this post somewhat disrespectful. It seemed to almost belittle the situation…

Well surely his death wasn’t a complete waste. That must have been some of the most tender succulent venison ever!

Now he can be with his mommy, like he was always meant to be. Poor little thing.

rest in peace little rupert!

Darsa,please accept my condolences on the loss of your companion. Best wishes to you and I hope you find a new companion with whom to have warm snuggles and the occasional luurkensproing! It will be good for you both.

God Bless baby Rupert!!

He is soooo cute and I’m so sad to hear that he didn’t make it.

I was sad to hear that little Rupert died, but finally cried as I was reading all the comments. We’ll miss you, Rupert.
And thank you to Tiggywinkles for trying your best.

Meg, In full recognition that this is your space and you have total freedom… my coworkers and I would like to respectfully request that you not post items about sad stories. We depend on CO for happy sweet uplifting thoughts and love and appreciate 99.9% of what you put out there.
