R.I.P Charlotte :(


There she is, Aww :) She was such a lovely tarantula, named Charlotte after the spider in Charlotte's Web, A lovely tempered spider. So, Today I had to face the loss of my lovely tarantula, and I understand to many, if not most, this sounds ridiculous. But you know when your childhood hamster died, it really upset you? Your world was torn apart? Nothing could replace them? Yup. That's how I feel about Charlotte. She was friendly, as far as spiders go and she had a lovely, lovely temperament. I could always say with confidence 'touch her, she won't move or attack you, promise'.
She's never gone for me, once. She even had a phantom pregnancy once, bless her :)
So she'll be missed, I genuinely mean that. Just like you'll miss nibbles, or whatever your childhood pet was (named at animal lovers).

On a lighter note, the other 5 I own are flourishing and better than ever, although My Cobalt Blue has decided she's far too beautiful for the world's eyes so has taken to webbing up her tank, which does make me giggle. Such a grumpy spider.
As I type this Pan, my male bearded dragon, is running about nomming cabbage all over the tank, stopping only to stare back at me when I look at him, haha :)

I do love animals, they do make my life a little bit more interesting. Especially watching a male bearded dragon get denied action by the female one, priceless :')

Anyway, Rest in Peace Charlotte, I'll miss you, You were a gem of a tarantula, no one could of asked for a nicer spidey :) Enjoy your webbed heaven, and look after Rose and Wellies (my two other deceased tarantulas, wellies was only a spiderling)

Perhaps they'll be a baby Chile Rose needing a home eh? The circle of life is yet to strike again :)
