As everyone knows who have been reading Oreo's Blog, Oreo slept a lot. This made it very difficult to know his/her state of health. There was a way of waking him up though, I would make it rain in his terrarium and place fresh food out. He always woke up within 24-48 hours.
Well, on October 7th, after a longer than normal nap, I tried to wake him up. Oreo did not wake up this time. I picked him up and indeed he had died sometime last month.
I will miss him; but it has been fun watching him and having his as a pet.
