rainbow bridge

Last night I had to say goodbye to my adorable, crazy, and tomato-addicted boy, Chip. He was more than just a Guinea Pig; he was part of my family. He is deeply missed already. This happened so unexpectedly and suddenly, I wish we had more time together. Everything was fine Mar. 27th, and when I...

Last night my guinea pig Tony died. I regret not being able to give him a quick and painless death. I hope I’ll be able to see him in the world after and be able to apologize to him, along with all my other beloved pets. I love you Tony.

Yesterday morning we woke up to find our lovely boy Dennis (black) had passed away in the night. He had been to the vet on Thursday for a suspected bladder infection and was on medication to treat that, but on Saturday evening he took a turn for the worse and was really struggling to poop...

Well here it goes. As most of you will be aware, me and my boyfriend travelled up to Rutland House to see the incredible Dr Varga and Craig to say goodnight to our wonderful girls Bea (5.5), Mouse (5.5) and Meep (2.5) this afternoon. My parents, best friend and brother also came over to say...

My poor girl Clarice lost her battle with lymphoma this afternoon 💔 She was only 4 years old. 😢 She loved her besties Cora and Pete, but loved being cheeky, shouting at me, and eating lettuce from her Dad’s garden more than anything. She learnt some of her cheekiness from her late friend Dylan...

To be honest, it’s taken me almost a year to post this and I still don’t think I’m over the grief - but with another terminally ill piggie now, I think I’m ready to talk about my boy Dylan 💔 At around 6am on 21st July 2022, my sweet little pancake pig Dylan passed away. He was 5 and a half...

I hesitated posting here because I didn't want to believe it. I'm sure we've all felt that way. But 12/19/2022 I lost my sweet boy Judo. He taught me all about guinea pigs, and how they have such a big personality in such a small body. He was the first one who welcomed me into the family, and...

My baby, Nugget, passed away yesterday, he was the loudest little guy, super ticklish and obsessed with Parsley. He helped me during a time when I was struggling the most and his death hurts so much. His brother Nutmeg is left behind and I'm making sure he is eating, drinking etc but he...

Hi everyone. Last night my beautiful and sweet pig Pippa who I always called Pippy passed away suddenly. She seemed fine the day before but yesterday I noticed she wasn’t moving a lot and her body was doing a slight back and forth repetitive movement which I watched a while but then I saw her...

I am sad to say that Gus has passed away. I am feeling guilty, depressed, and shocked. At 1:30 AM on Wednesday, he stood up on the side of his habitat and wanted a carrot; when I went to check on him at 3 AM, his back legs were stiff and he was unable to move. I should have taken him to the...

The story of chunk. The beginning June 2018. A decision to be made that would change the next three years of my life. I would be joined by two 4 legged friends that would define and make me into the man I am now. I remember the day well. It was a Cloudy day but with a warmth feeling in...

Today 20/04/2021, sometime during the afternoon (myself and my partner are not sure of a time) our beautiful 4 year old piggy Olive very suddenly went over the rainbow bridge.💔 I don’t know why it happened, I don’t know if she felt any pain but I do know my heart is empty and my house is quiet...

I lost my little Charlie yesterday, after a few days of being poorly (I syringe fed and gave her medicine) but I had to make the sad decision to put her to sleep so she wouldn’t be in pain any more. She was 3 and a half years old and had been as bright as a button until she became poorly. She...

my little cookie died last night while giving birth , she was my first guinea pig and she needed a companion so i got her one. The petshop owner said it was a female which ultimately ended up being false. last night she gave birth to a still born and a few hours later passed away i called so...

I lost my 2.5 year old little boy yesterday from GDV, making the heartbreaking decision to put him to sleep. He was visibly in so much pain and I know it was for the best but it doesn’t make it any easier and it was so sudden. I have photos of him on Friday having cuddles, and by Sunday he was...

My guinea pig Bear died today. He had been feeling unwell for the past week so I made the decision to put him down to spare him any more pain and suffering. He was an older piggy. I never knew his exact age since I got him from the animal shelter almost two years ago( the vet suspected between 4...

My poor Peanut crossed the rainbow bridge this morning around 5am. He was 2 years old. He is no longer in pain. He was a good guinea pig. I can’t stop crying. I will always miss you and I will always love you my strong boy. Please come keep your step-brother Lucky company in spirit sometime, he...

After a long and exhausting few weeks of us fighting our local vets and Lon-Lon fighting her abscess, this morning it was decided by us and the wonderful Simon, Kim and their team at the Cat and Rabbit Clinic in Northampton that she was ready to cross the Rainbow Bridge. We plan to make a longer...

My munchkin nibbles does not too long ago and I cry atleast once a day. I truly wish there was a way I can have closure. We already buried him and said our goodbyes but somethings missing. My Tribute I made of him 😢❤️

A week ago I said good bye to my favourite little guy Alvin. He finally lost his battle with ongoing illness and was put to sleep. He was the most beautiful, well behaved, super guinea pig ever and he stole my heart. He was not only a guinea pig, he was my friend and I miss him dearly. My home...
