[Gpdd] [RAINBOW BRIDGE] Condolences for Moog

[DebJonSara at aol.com]

Beginning to wonder whether the gpdd should carry a health warning -  reading 
too many after a period offline can be damaging to ones psychological  
health. It is a beautiful sunny day here in rural France, the hedgerows are a  mass 
of colour, the birds are singing, and I settled down to catch up after a  
lovely walk with the dog ... only to find so many of our little friends have  
departed for The Rainbow Bridge since last time we logged on. It is depressing -  
though I guess it is also uplifting to read the loving and appreciative 
tributes  slaves have written to their masters.
 
We so feel for you, Elizabeth, Edna and Moogie. We lost our precious Red  
Dandy at 3 years old, similar symptoms - teeth troubles, weight loss, syringe  
feeding .... . He also was seen by the CCT, but in the end, he died at Cavies  
Castle, and we never really knew what had caused his demise. It has never 
ceased  to amaze us that so many guinea pigs are used for experiments to find out  
more about human health and medicines, and yet there seems to be so very 
little  knowledge in the public or even veterinary domain about guinea pig health 
and  diseases and how to diagnose and treat them when they become ill.
 
We are so glad you all have one another to console yourselves. Little  Moogie 
will definitely have known how much she was loved, and she is now free  from 
pain and dental problems, racing through that luscious herbal grass in the  
sunshine of the Rainbow Meadow, making new friends whilst always keep her old  
ones in her heart until you can be reunited.
 
Give one another a hug from all of us - we are thinking of you with  empathy.
