Buttercup, 26 yr old palomino mare. She traveled all the way from Pennsylvania in the hope that the warm, dry climate of Nevada will help her lung condition. She arrived September 13, 2007 and is doing just fine!
Update
Saturday, October 3, 2009
Buttercup peacefully crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. She was fine in the morning and in the afternoon, and at evening feeding, she was gone. We'll always remember those pinned back ears and her feistiness. Rest in peace, dear Buttercup.

Buttercup.
Damn damn damn.
Two years In Heaven with S&R and her frens....
Not enough.
But horses I think do not count the days
behind them--or before them.
Just today:
Steph and Rob.
The hounds.
The chickums.
Horsie frens and---um--other.
Good food.
Treats.
Visitors.
Fly mask!
New halters!
Sweet bed.
Good water.
New Shoes!
Buttercup got many Very Good Todays.
And her silent, swift passing...
in her quiet departure
for The Real Thing.
Something sweet in that too.
I am so sorry for her absence
for all who knew her, know her.

COURAGE
Thank you so much, Jonna, for the beautiful and comforting words.
