My Boys Charlie & Wilson

I had my boys for just over a year and a half 2 ducks (like the one on friends), Charlie and Wilson, they were part of the family allowed in the house sometimes to play in the bath, they would be in the back garden watching through the back door when you came home jumping up at the glass! you couldnt sunbath or walk one side to the other in the garden without them nipping at your feet they had a toe fetish! they were so cheeky you could see the smiles on their faces, when you sat down they would let you stroke them and rub their fronts up your arms almost climing over you then running off doing a little circle and come back for more, we would fill up their paddling pool and they would hop on the inflated sides and wrestle each other charlie would grab wilsons head by the feathers and hold his head under the water!.... he didnt seem to mind, he always went back for more, they would chase you if you ran away and be chased when you went after them, I could pick them up and cuddle them and kiss their soft necks, they were always ,always happy and would always seek your attention and were very nosey! they slept in the shed and would go in before dark when you told them it was time for bed, apart from the odd nite when their eyes would light up n id have to catch the liitle devils, I bought them a huge run I could walk into with a little house attached as I was worried about not getting home before dark in the winter and didnt want them left out, Sunday nite a fox managed to pull the huge 4 foot by 3 foot heavy roof back and slide through a gap smaller than the length of my hand, it killed one boy and took the other!! I cant bear it to know my gorgeous happy little boys were killed so cruely, they were soooo trusting and so sweet I just cant believe it, I have just cried and cried its not only that I miss them I cannot stop thinking about their last moments and I just wish I could have saved them! its so hard because to everone else they are just ducks! but to me they were part of my family, when I go outside theres no little quacking to greet me and two enthusiastic faces waiting for attention. Im so glad ive found this site because although I havent lost a dog or a cat im hoping someone will at least understand the shock and upset from loosing pets in such an awful way!
