Tenaran Wowie Zowie Russian Dove Bred by Tenaran Stud 08/03/2006 - 24/10/2007
Where to start? Zowie was a
wonderful, special, cuddly old bear. Really soppy
and sweet, gentle with everyone, and always the
first to come for a cuddle. When we got him he
tipped the scales at 800grams... even at just 4
months old. We'd always had trouble with his weight,
despite our best efforts, and finally, at nearly 20
months, it got the better of him. We found him
curled up, fast asleep, having never had an ill day
in his life. And though he was still pretty young,
it's a nice way to go :*)
Zowie was such a quiet lad, so gentle, so enormous. Everyone always asked to see him, because nobody could quite get over how big he was. He was very like Lenny from 'Of Mice and Men' all brawn and very little brain :*) more recently he's been compared to 'Git' from Ratatouille. I'm a bit numb to be honest, and really don't know how to write an obit for him right now. He was just such a special boy, and a rat I was very close to as a friend. a chunk from the song he was named after:
Wowie Zowie
And a
song for him... because it's just so very very
fitting... we were always trying to get him to
run... to exercise :*) "Keep on Runnin' - Spencer Davis Group"
