https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvgeqd2lqx0t It would appear that Betsy Arakawa died of a respiratory virus about a week before Gene Hackman died from heart disease; Hackman may have been unaware of his wife's death because his Alzheimer's disease was so advanced. No conclusion has been reached regarding the dog, but apparently they cannot be affected by the respiratory virus. How bloody sad that two people so well known could lie there so long apparently not missed.
The dog was found in a cage in a closed wardrobe wasn't it? So prob died of thirst or hunger, poor bastard.
One owner had cognitive problems, and possibly the other too, so not straightforward. I've even seen it myself sadly, and on one occasion the result was putting down over a dozen blind/half blind cats after the elderly owner died.
I think the wife died suddenly leaving the others who were dependant on her. Terribly sad for her husband and the dog, but not something to blame her for really...
Yes, but to lock a dog in a cage, is disgraceful. Regardless, we’ll never all know the circumstances. Whatever happened, is tragic and truly saddening.
