      There’s always good ways to look at things and this is perfect, definitely sad she passed away but she had an amazing life and seemed so happy. Glad she got to have that life and was surrounded by those who cared about her dearly ❤

    I'm seeing a lot of similarities in Dougs reaction to this as to when my dog passed. It sucks that they did pass, but they where old... like *old* old. The fact that it hadn't happened sooner was a miracle, and the fact that it happened peacefully is reassuring. It doesn't make it not suck, but it makes coping with the loss of someone you cared about much easier to deal with

      I have a 15 year old dog who nearly died from a stroke five years ago. I've been worried about her dying every year she has lived. This actually makes me feel better. I got 5 additional years with my childhood dog, and it is something to be celebrated. The way you further explained what Dough said actually changed my perspective on how I respond to death. It will be horrible, but she lived when even the vets thought she would die. I have more time with the one I love. I wish you the best and I hope your dog is receiving all the biscuits and treats they deserve in heaven.

    Rosa lived a long and prosperous life. MBA took very good care of her, and it's amazing that she lived for as long as she did. Raised such an amount of otters and made a positive impact.
    It's sad to see her pass, but it was her time to go by now. After all, she lived a quarter of a lifetime longer than Otters normally do, that is an achievement in on itself.
    It also warms my heart seeing how dedicated DougDoug's community was to her, donating thousands upon thousands of dollars to a good cause, such as MBA.

    Never had the pleasure of being there for the Rosa fundraiser streams, but it’s clear that she meant a lot to chat and Doug. The fact she was 20 when she passed is genuinely amazing.

    I think this year's fundraiser should be a final celebration of Rosa, but then at the end, chat all votes on who our next favorite sea animal at the aquarium is, and now they're the focus of the next fundraiser. Maybe we stick with them, maybe we pick a new one each year. Who knows?

  • @Crystalluss

    Just in case there are any people out there who are hesitant to pick another animal to support: It's okay. As someone who lost her first cat yet adopted another cat soon after, it's okay for us to pick another animal in the aquarium to love and get hyped about. There are so many amazing animals in the world. While losing my cat was the saddest day of my life, and it felt impossible for me to imagine myself having any other cat, I still had so much love to give. And now, my current kitty is a cuddly sweetheart that I love to death.
    There will be another animal who is just as amazing as Rosa, but in their own unique way. We'll remember all the fun, wonderful times we had with Rosa, and her memory will become like a shining light to inspire us to help other animals.
    It's okay. While we're going to be sad for a time and that's okay, it's also okay to find and support another animal like we did with Rosa. She was a foster mama, so it's what she would have wanted. Still, it's sad, so we'll take whatever time we need, and then there'll be another beautiful animal out there, waiting for us.

    I’m glad we’re still having a fundraiser this year for her. I know she’s gone but I feel like she would want us to have one for the otters that are out there. She held out for as long as she could and passed away hopefully peacefully. May her memory live on forever. She may be gone but she will never be forgotten. For as long as we all live. Further than any of us.

    It's really cool that Doug will be able to make what will equate to a restricted donation for the MBA's Sea Otter program for this year.
