[Gpdd] RAINBOW BRIDGE: condolences, Cookie; and Cotton's mourning

[Cindy]

Jennifer, please accept our condolences on Cookie's passing.  We are so 
very sorry for your loss.  It is very touching that Cookie's friend, 
Cotton, looked after him during his illness.  We know that Cotton's 
presence was a comfort.  You mentioned that Cotton is sad now; piggies are 
very sensitive, and Cotton is obviously mourning for his friend.  It is 
good that you are giving Cotton extra attention now, but, if possible, you 
should consider getting Cotton another male friend.

If you do find a new friend for Cotton, make sure to introduce them on 
neutral territory first, definitely not in Cotton's cage.  It would also be 
good to have an extra cage for the new guy, so he and Cotton could get to 
know each other as they sat in cages side by side.  Then gradually you 
could get them used to being in one cage.

Let us know if you decide to get a new piggie.  All of us here can give you 
more tips on introducing two boars.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all sick piggies and their humans.

Sadly,
Cindy, Sunshine, and Tumbleweed, missing Joey G.
