Rest in peace little Tenzi
February 19, 2015 - March 26, 2015
36 days of love
 
Tenzi died today.   The boys accidentally left the lid off the cage last night and he either climbed out or was abducted by our cat.   Either way, the boys woke up and found that he was missing.   Crying and sobbing this morning as they unknowingly walked back and forth between our room and theirs (each time passing his little lifeless body and not noticing him) delivering the news and worrying about his whereabouts.  Anna scooped Tenzi up and we hid him until later tonight when we gave them the bad news; after school, after their Minecraft party. 
 
Tonight they cried all over again, but settled easily understanding that our cat is just a predator and couldn't help himself.   Tenzi is in the freezer now, waiting for the Spring to really come before can dig a hole and have the funeral.   The boys are already planning his replacement.  Another gerbil named Twenzi.
