R.I.P. Juma

Today we lost one of our Rhinos suddenly. I always knew that dealing with something like this on the job was a possibility and wondered how I would take it. It wasn't easy but I managed not to break down until I was in the privacy of my own home. We don't know what caused Juma's death yet, but we're sure she died peacefully in her sleep because when we found her she just looked like she was snoozing away. It was so hard to see her not get up for treats when we called her name and even harder to move her out of the place she called home for 12 years. She drove us crazy with her "shifting issues" and cracked us up when she would put her big fat lip on the gate and beg for food or attention or lean up against the water trough to rest her booty. I will miss her so much.
