Munchkin, the TikTok Duck Who Loved Iced Water, Dies After Vet Visit

TikTokers hope Munchkin gets a cup of ice water at the rainbow bridge.

The duck, whose love of drinking ice water from Starbucks and Dunkin’ catapulted her to viral TikTok stardom, sadly passed away on April 1 at the age of 6, according to her human. Krissy.

“If love could have saved her, she would have lived forever,” Krissy captioned a sweet video of the creature’s best moments on the site. “Fly high Munchkin.”

Krissy, who has 10 other pet ducks, is still waiting for more information on the waterfowl’s cause of death, as Munchkin recently underwent tests to investigate a “strange” heartbeat.

“Unfortunately, I’m writing this post with more questions than answers,” Krissy continued in her April 1 post. “Munchkin passed away at the vet today. We did the best we could. I don’t think there are words to accurately describe the sadness I feel. I feel numb.”

The influencer also shared a touching tribute to Munchkin, writing, “Some loves are too hard to bear. And with great love comes great pain. And with great loss comes the greatest pain of all.”
