[Gpdd] [RAINBOW BRIDGE] Condolences for Gussie/Mr Mommie

We were so very sorry to hear that your Senior Citizen Ageing Miracle  Piggie 
(SCAMP) Augustus had departed for the Rainbow Bridge. He sounds like a  real 
character, and you and he were very privileged for him to have been able to  
have been a free range piggie for most of his life. You were obviously very  
close, and it sounds as though your companionship more than compensated for the  
fact that he didn't have a piggie playmate - in fact, we would hazard a guess 
 that he loved you far too much to want to share you!
 
We found your obituary for him very moving, and can tell that his departure  
has left an enormous gaping hole i your life. However, at least, as you say, 
he  did not have to endure any frightening illnesses or veterinary treatments 
during  his last few days - he was able to choose his own time and place, which 
was in  his own little pigloo, surrounded by the love he knew you felt for 
him.
 
You say he was "only" six, but in fact we feel this is a magnificent age  for 
a piggie, and it is wonderful that he was able to maintain his healthy  
weight right until the end. However, we have always said that no piggie life is  
long enough for the slaves that are left behind, who always want more. 
 
Please find some comfort in the thought of your Gussie enjoying total  
freedom again at the Rainbow Bridge, and the fact that piggie slaves all over  the 
globe will be thinking of you at this sad time and sharing your pain. We  wish 
you well.
