This afternoon, after my hubby and I finished stacking and tarping our hay he went to check on our llama, Rocky
He came in the house and told me that Rocky had passed away . . . we aren't sure what happened. My hubby suspects he might have been attacked, perhaps by a mountain lion. (They are here!)
He has lived in a big pen with apple trees just west of our house for over 20 years. He was about 24 years old, and we just enjoyed him as a pet and a very friendly, funny guy. He was mild-mannered, loved to give what we call "butterfly kisses" and just was so curious and interested in everything we were doing!
We are soooo sad!![](icons/icon_smile_sad.gif) He will be GREATLY missed!!!!![](icons/icon_smile_sad.gif) ![](icons/icon_smile_sad.gif)

I'm so sorry about Rocky! LLamas are so sweet and almost like dogs. You gave Rocky a good life and I know you'll see him again someday. Hugs. Cindy

CJ..I am so sorry to hear about your precious llama. That is so sad to hear, I am sure he will be SO missed. I do agree that you will indeed see him again someday. Sounds like he definitely had the perfect home here on earth with you.

Oh CJ, I am so sorry about Rocky. You had him such a very long time and what a sweet looking boy. I know you will miss this sweet boy and to have him so long makes it all the harder. Prayers and hugs to you and yours.

I'm so sorry, CeeJay. He looks like a very sweet guy. I was always afraid of llamas though. And donkeys. But I would have probably like Rocky.

Aw CJ, So sorry to hear about your boy. He looks like a real sweetheart. I am sure he must have given you and your family lots of memories. Hang on to those. Wish I had words to make you feel better but it is hard to lose an animal they are so much a part of our life. hugs my friend.
