R.I.P. Mocha

Yesterday morning, we discovered the lifeless body of my ever so sweet mongrel Mocha. She was Mojo's mistress and was the first for Mojo in everything before Pazzy came.

We were not sure what caused her death. All I know that she hasn't been eating well for the past 2 days before her untimely death. I was thinking that she's gonna hold out since she's not a pure breed, therefore she has more increased chances of surviving anything than my purebreeds. I planned to buy some supplements and medicine by the weekend.

At the second day, I was really getting worried. She couldn't get up. She ate a little while still on her tummy. I was really hoping that she's gonna hold out.

We never heard her cry in pain. Silently, she passed away and I was in tears. She was only 7 years old.

For the first time, I dug the earth in our kennel to bury her. With the help of my lil brother, we only managed to dig 3 feet (the clay soil underground was heavy and it's getting really hard for us to dig deeper).

I said my apologies to her for all the sins I have done to her. She was the sweetest dog ever. I trained her to chase cats back in Cotabato. I'm gonna miss her so much. We said our prayers (I know it's too silly for others to understand why I am praying for her soul, but she is also God's creation and I value her so much) and let her rest in peace. We put a white stone on top of her grave and a stick with her collar tied tightly was hammered on the earth.

She was always there. With that, I'm gonna miss her so much. My young brother Deo will be surprised to see her up there now.

Mocha, forgive me if I wasn't able to save you. I love you so much. Rest in peace.
