Igel passed away this morning... my mum found her lying in her water bowl...

Rest in peace little buddy, I kindda hate you for not saying goodbye...

p.s: I just came back from Ho Chi Minh on a 2 weeks business trip, and burst into tears when my mum told me this sad news...

Thanks guys... there are still tears in my eyes and its nice to know that most of you still remember Igel...

Dear Igel, I'll always remember you won Hedgehog of the Month twice at hedgehogcentral.com; Jan 06 and Sept 06 (Sept 06's title was taken down as each hedgie can be awarded HotM for one time only). You sure know how to make me proud... by the way here's the link to Igel's gallery: Igel@hedgehogcentral

and her famous picture...



god... I really miss you, Igel. You're really cruel... all I wanted is a goodbye from you; is that too much to request for?

@NewbieBetta, Igel was 2 years old.

that's one great shot you got there Reanne!
