@winnythecrab: I won't be active on this channel anymore. I will keep it up but I won't likely be posting very much. Winny didn’t make it. She passed away from what appears to have been both a failed molt and the deep shell rot she had been living with. I was able to give her an extra 17 months of life, and I will always be grateful for that time. Her 17 months with me were filled with food, love, enrichment, and freedom. She wasn’t endlessly trapped in a cage or destined for a plate. She got to live her best life right alongside a family who deeply loved her. Winny carried the torch for Howie. She continued the work of educating the world and proving that even an adult crab, from a completely different part of the world, could be socialized and form a bond with people. She was an ambassador for her species. She helped teach millions of people that crabs are sentient, that they have individual personalities, that they are far more complex than most people realize, and that they can feel their shells. For such a small creature, Winny also carried our biggest message: Don’t boil animals alive. Rest easy, Winny. I hope you find Howie on the other side. You girls can share stories. I love you ❤️🦀😭 #winnythecrab #update

I hope you reconsider once your heart heals, and continue to teach us. But until then, take care of yourself

To those of you urging Laura to do this again… I kept rats for a couple of years and I have never loved anything like I loved those little rats, but they don’t live long and that heartbreak comes frequently. It’s not like you lose a pet and you get a decade you lose another one no all three of them within several months of each other. It’s a lot of loss and for me it was too hard to continue experiencing that so I no longer keep rats. Did it ever occur to you that it might be too painful to Laura? Try to be considerate instead of telling someone what you think they should do.

I've learned from you, Howie, and Winny, and shared the education with others. You've done more good than you probably realize. May Winny's memory be a blessing to you❤️.

take time to mourn, to grieve, but please consider returning to your platform when you feel ready. you’ve taught so many of us about these creatures- more than many of us would have ever thought to know- and bowie and winny were so deeply loved. you gave them the kind of life i imagine crabs tell urban legends to their children about - so please take peace in knowing all the good you’ve done
