Meimei was my dearly loved 14 year-old Siberian Husky in the Philippines.
She passed-away peacefully the other day. I can't complain at that as she was well-loved and well looked after by my two youngest daughters. She enjoyed life. She was a real surviver and she lived to a ripe old age.
My only regret is that due to these ridiculous and largely useless travel bans, I was not able to be with her even once during the last 15 months of her life. 'Just one more of the billions of Covid-19 fall-out stories from around the world...
I rescued Meimei from a pet shop when she was about 18 months old. She'd already spent about six months, as far as I can work out, in a filthy little cage in the shop window. From the moment I picked her up, she loved her Big Daddy like, well, (words fail me...) Well like only Meimei could! I was there for her when she was younger and I spent as much time as I could with her in her older years. I only wish I could have seen her in her last year of life. My kids told me that Meimei was waiting for me to come home.
Covid bull...
Well... Maybe she understands now.
I am going to miss you Meimei. And I will always love you...
Your Big Daddy forever!!
Here's Meimei in her younger days, not too long after I got her - having a good look over the wall at some goats in a field there!!
