I would like to send my most sincere condolences and deepest regrets to 
Michele on the loss of her beloved FLATHEAD and to Libby for the loss of her 
wonderful MEEPER. As I read today's posts it was sad indeed knowing that two of our 
precious little guys have passed over the bridge. Regardless of how old these 
little miracles might be when they reach that place, we still ask "Why do they 
have to leave us so soon". For this answer, we must believe that God has a 
plan and he is taking out little guys and girls for his own reasons. To some he 
is kind and takes them from their suffering while young and to others he is 
even kinder by watching over them until they reach the senior years before 
taking them. But regardless of when in His wisdom, he must take them from us, our 
hearts are broken for what seems to be forever. Yet in believing in the bridge 
and knowing that forever could only exist when you are reunited with your 
little guys, there is some solace in that terrible loss. But even this will take 
time. And for this time you will grieve as all who have read of both MEEPER and 
FLATHEAD have grieved this day. Their names remembered and the sadness their 
moms and dads feel well shared with all of us. Just as we grieve for a family 
member when we loose them, so we ALL who are members of this digest grieve 
this day for the loss of two wonderful and most beloved piggies, FLATHEAD and 
MEEPER, since are we not all family as well. Again please accept my regrets for 
your loss and one day we will ALL share the stories of out little guys on the 
other side of the bridge.

Sincerely,

Joseph C. Petrillo, George the guinea pigs daddy
