That is a lot of losses one right after the other. I had something similar but not as extreme. I got my first tiel Paddy in 2000 who escaped in a moment of my carelessness in 2001 and he was never found. Shortly after in 2001 I took in my foundling CC and adopted EmmaLee. I lost Emmalee in 2003 and adopted Lulu. CC passed in 2008 and that's when I got Shiloh and Lulu passed in 2009.
