Our groundhog passed away and I am devastated.

I found out tonight the groundhog in our backyard passed away. My husband was talking to our next door neighbor who said they found a dead groundhog in their yard and think their dog got it. Our groundhog made a pretty large home for himself behind our shed next to their yard and I haven’t seen him in a few days. I checked his home tonight and he wasn’t in there.

We moved to this house 5 months ago and he has been the only thing I have liked about our new house. Moving has been extremely difficult for me and he was the one thing bringing me joy.

I would check out my window 20 times a day looking for him, watching him, learning his routine and I cant fathom that that is all gone now. I have been crying all night for a little guy I grew so attached to in such a short amount of time. He deserved so much more and its hard thinking about what his last moments were like. I know not many people are happy about a rodent in their yard so I figured this is the best place to get my feelings out in a place where others understand.

He has a large stick house and its going to be so hard seeing it knowing hes not there. I loved my little groundhog. 💔
