[Gpdd] [RAINBOW BRIDGE] Condolences for Mayflower Piggyfriend

Penny and Piggyfriends
 
We were so sorry to hear of the sudden departure for the Rainbow Bridge of  
your beloved SCAMP, Mayflower. It is scary how quickly piggies can go downhill, 
 and we know you did the best thing when you got her to Cavies Castle, as 
Debbie  Slave did that when our Red Dandy was very poorly. She also left him 
there, and  he crossed to The Bridge in their loving care, along with one of their 
own  piggies, Jasper, in 2005. We were interested to hear about the theory of 
sudden  onset gastric torsion. Our precious Scruff had similar symptoms just 
before she  went to The Bridge in 2004.
 
Mayflower and the Ginger Family sound like a wonderful band of piggies,  
splendid ambassadors for their race, and we are sure the surviving pair,  
Gingerbread and Diamond, will miss Mayflower terribly, as of course you all  will. But 
you know that Mayflower had the best life she possibly could have had  
because she was a member of the Piggyfriend family, and her great age, and that  of 
so many of you, is a tribute to the standard of love and care all your family  
receive, ably aided and abetted, of course, by your excellent rodentologists 
at  Cavies Castle.
 
As you say, our little furbies are never with us for long enough, and we  
know only too well the pain you are feeling and the emptiness that will be  
jumping out at you each time you approach the large corner pen with only two  
piggies in it.May it bring you a tiny grain of comfort to know that piggies and  
slaves all over the world are thinking of you at this difficult time, and  
wishing you well.
 
Run free, marvellous Mayflower, with your mummy and Peridot, and thank you  
for the love and happiness you gave whilst you were amongst us.
 
Debbie and the 11 Dolly Mixtures
