Alice Nine Saga Blog Entry Re: RIP Chiko [20120121]


English & Japanese
Sorry for the late information,
but at exactly 7pm on January 17,
Chiko passed away at age 17 and 7 months.
He died of old age.

His legs had been weak since last year’s spring,
and he had been bedridden since the end of the tour in December.
There was a time when he was cute and bouncing with energy,
but even when he became confined and turned into nothing but skin and bones,
it’s the owner’s duty to keep an eye on him until the end.
In the very least, we made sure he wouldn’t feel alone.
In the end, he went to sleep in my mother’s arms after taking two big breaths.
It’s sad to lose a family member,
but Chiko was loved by everyone during his life.
When he became bedridden,
we surrounded him with the things fans sent for him!
For example, a hand-made blanket embroidered with his name…
Fanletters addressed to him.
I truly think of those things as treasures.
As the owner, I have no regrets.
I’m sure Chiko’s saying “Thank you” to everyone from up in the sky.
Once in a while, please remember him!


報告遅れてしまいましたが、
チコが17日の19時ちょうどに
17歳と7ヶ月の人生に幕を閉じました。
老衰でした。


去年の春頃から足腰が弱りだして
12月のツアーが終わる頃には寝たきり状態になっていました。


可愛く元気に飛び跳ねていた時代もあれば、
寝たきりになって骨と皮だけになっても
最期まで見届けるのが飼い主の義務です。


とにかく孤独に寂しくはいかせないようにと心掛けました。


最期は我が家の母親の腕の中で、大きな呼吸を二回した後眠るように、でした。


家族を一人失ったように悲しいですが
チコは皆に愛された人生だったな。


寝たきりになってからの彼は
ファンのみんなから頂いたものに囲まれてたよ!


例えばチコの刺繍が入った手作りのブランケットとか、。
チコ宛てのファンレターとかね。
これは本当に宝物だと思った。


飼い主として悔いはありません。


きっとチコも空の上からみんなにありがとうって言ってるはず。


ふとした時に、彼の事を思い出してあげてね!

    1. It's pretty sad that Chiko died, but like Saga said, he was well loved and he lived for such a long time. I hope my dog can live for that long.

      1. I'm so sorry for the delay in replying, the site wasn't allowing me to reply directly to your comment. Yes, it's quite an upsetting event, but I'm glad that there were no regrets ~ that's the main thing. I feel sorry for Saga, losing such a companion.

        I hope your dog stays well *^^*
