I know I haven't been around in a long time, but I have some really sad news...

[ChloeLove]

On the 7th my guinea pig, Scooter died. I came home from school and didn't really look and I thought she was sleeping because she always is, but then she hadn't moved for a few hours. It turned out she was dying. I am so devastated right now, she meant so much to me!

Then for a few days Dexter was showing signs of being sick. I am very sad about Scooter dying, don't get me wrong, but you see... Dexter and I had a really special bond. I know this is crazy because he was a guinea pig, but I would hold him and he'd cuddle up in my neck and fall asleep in my arms and lick me and... man, I'm crying just writing this. I came home from school today and my brother tells me Dexter is dead. :( I feel so guilty, I wish I was home to be with him. He was my little baby! This is not fair... They were only two years old and I don't know what I'll do without them. I just wish I knew how they got sick...

I think I'm gonna stick around now, I don't even know why I didn't post in a while.

What precious little piggies your Scooter and Dexter were:(:(:( I'm so sorry for your great loss. I can only imagine the pain of losing two beloved furkids in such a short time. It's especially heartbreaking knowing that you lost them at such a young age:( I'm a piggie Mom too and know how very special these little critters are. I lost my Squeekers this past April and my heart still aches for him. Big hugs to you ChloeLove. I know my sweet and gentle boy Squeeks is welcoming them with happy wheeks, showing them the ropes at the Rainbow Bridge, making them feel welcome and sharing a sprig of parsley. Love, Sandra

I am so sorry for your loss...Most of the time when you notice your guinea pig or hamster or any rodent is sick, it's to late...:( I'm am truly sorry. I'm sure Dexter knew you loved him.




RIP Little pigglys.

Amanda I'm so sorry I did not see this until now. I know that Dexter and Scooter knew how much you loved them and take comfort knowing that they are happily running around the RB making new piggy friends.

RIP little piggies.
