Two Unexpected Angels ... Written by CP's VP of Intakes

Today two very tiny little Cairn Angels crossed over the Rainbow Bridge never really having a chance at life...

Soprano, Alto and Tenor were all scheduled for their spay/neuter surgeries and dentals today. Tenor and Alto's surgeries went fine without a hitch. Then came little Soprano. This little mill mama only weighs 8.6 pounds and is nothing but skin and bones. But she had a secret ... she was pregnant. We didn't know she was pregnant ... and then it was too late. But sometimes these things happen for a reason and there is a silver lining in something terrible. Soprano had two puppies, but she also had an adhesion on her uterus, between her uterus and her bowel. This adhesion would have made it just about impossible for Soprano to whelp these puppies and along with the very poor physical condition she is in, it would have caused her to abort these puppies shortly. Soprano had two puppies. One seemed to be forming normally, but the other was deformed and had water on the brain.

Note and Tune went to the Rainbow Bridge today without ever having a chance to experience life and freedom, but they went being loved and I know there are mill mamas waiting for them at the Rainbow Bridge to nurture and care for them. Their mama Soprano will now be able to heal her battered little body, gain some strength and be the Cairn Princess she was always meant to be. She will be singing a happy song with Note and Tune joining the CP Chorus from above.

Note and Tune will be cremated together, just as they were together today, and then buried in the Greyfrier Memorial Garden.

Please light a candle for Note and Tune, two babies who never had a chance at life and freedom...
