So, sadly, after only owning her for a very short time, Kiri (my fruit bat) has passed away. She was never showing any signs of sickness, was very healthy in weight, but I found her curled up on the floor of her tank. I am extremely upset about this. While the place I got her told me that they didn't know her age, they said they were "young" bats, but aside from some type of internal parasite, old age seems to be the only thing I could think of killing her, since everything about her was healthy. She was eating great, flying, and even biting, but she has passed on.

I will not lay blame on the company, I bought her knowing they did not know her age. Since bats are not legal here, I cannot even order a necropsy.

RIP little Kiri. I love you.
