Hi Friends,
Wow, the last two wheeks have been a trying time for us. Our little Jr.
passed about 3 wheeks ago due to an Upper Respirtory Infection that we
certainly didn't catch in time. He was doing fine and the next morning when
we woke, he quit eating and his eyes were crusted over. I went to the vet
that morning and got him Baytril and got it administered as soon as
possible. By that night, I sadly knew, he wasn't going to make it and I sat
with him while my husband went to bed in tears. Jr. was his piggie, his
pride and joy. I snoozed for 10 min and the other piggie rang the bell in
their cage to wake me to let me know he was gone.
Then last night, I was in the bedroom getting ready for bed and I hear my
hubby say, "what the..." and I kept asking him what, what? He caught me
before I got out of the bedroom door and told me Ravi had passed and held me
because I was going to pass out. I told him she was just drinking water 30
min. ago and eating. She must have had a piggie heart attack. I so hope she
didn't suffer. I am just beside myself. Ravi would have been 7 yrs. on
Wednesday so I feel she lived a full life. We will still have her birthday
in memory of her life.
So wierd that my piggie era is basically over. I have had piggies for over
15 years. I still plan to be there for people with Q&A, but at this time I
think feel emotionally ready to adopt again for awhile. live in Colorado so
I am open for helping someone that needs piggie vacation care. Maybe
fostering would be good for me right now.
Sorry for the long post and thankyou all for listening. Again, to Bethany
who lost Sooty, my sincere condolences to you. To all of my other friends
who have lost their furry babies, my heart goes out to you as well. Healing
wheeks to all who are with illness. Thank you again.
Warm Regards and Happy Wheeks,
