Bye Bye Baby Cactus

After Mama Cactus died earlier this year, a few of Baby Cactus siblings died 3 months ago. They died due to my own negligence. Mama died due to excessive water while the young ones died of dryness. Either way, love kills ... whether it's too much or too little.

 

Last week, the last baby that was left all alone finally died. I noticed that its body began to shrink a month ago. No matter how much I cared, it just won’t respond. It chose not to survive on its own. So I let it rest in peace. Fear not Baby Cactus, your close companion Shaun the Sheep (farewell gift from Shila) will never be alone. I’ve hooked him with a charming lad - Paul the Polar Bear. I promise you that they’ll be Friends for Life! I'm sorry Baby Cactus ...
