To Dawnda,

I am sorry that you lost Tasha, but I also want to comment on putting her to 
sleep was the right thing to do, as hard as it is. We owe it to our piggies 
not to let them suffer. Guinea pigs do not get into heat, therefore, bleeding 
means that there is something seriously wrong with them. Sweetie was 15 month 
old when she had a hysterectomy. I believe that she survived because she was so 
young. Nevertheless, surgery was very hard on her and I felt so sorry that she 
had to go through so much pain. One thing I promised myself is that I will 
have a piggy with tumor problems put to sleep after the age of 4 years old. It 
is the only humane thing to do, as hard as it is on us owners.
I do enjoy the networking, and all the good ideas everybody has at the GPDD. 
I learn something every day.

Best wishes,
Marion
