The first time when I saw you I knew you were gonna be an important part of my live, I just wish the day when I had to say goodbye never came.
I loved you with my whole heart and I will always remember every little detail of the eight years we spend together.
When the Vet phoned me to tell me that there is a very small chance that you will survive your illness I had to make the decision, and even if it was very hard for me I had to do what was best for you. Oogies I will love you forever.
Oogies I don't know what caused the kidney failure, and if I could I would have rescued you and hugged you forever.
I Love you - R.I.P Oogies Venter
