its six months today that i had to let my little Gabriella cross over the bridge. She was 5 years old. She was getting really skinny and even though we had her teeth done and was making sure she was eating, there was nothing we could do. i wanted her to die happy rather than dieing sad and ill.

And this is her the day she had to cross over the bridge. i had to go to school knowing i would come home and she would be with the angels.

i wrote this poem for her:
I knew it wasnt fair on you
So i chose the best thing to do
You didnt deserve the pain
My sweet little Gabriella

It was the hardest decision
I've ever had to make
But i had to do it for your sake
You didnt deserve the pain
My sweet little Gabriella

And i know that
Even though you are gone
You're spirit will live on
And you'll always be in my heart
My sweet little Gabriella

RIP Little Girl
Have fun with all your friends at Rainbow Bridge
you will never be forgotten

love Gracie
 
This brought a tear to my eye... :( At least she left free of pain and was happy... RIP beautiful Gabriella x You can now run free at the bridge and make lots of new friends..
 
How lovely that she had such a caring owner. RIP Gab.riella
 
It is awful losing a little one and the anniversaries are especially hard. :(
 
thank you for your kind words. she was the first guinea pig that i'd had to make the decision for and it was truly heart breaking. in our final minute together, i said a long farewell and put her in the hutch. she ran off, then my shy little guinea pig back to me and put her nose on mine for a couple of seconds. it was like she was saying that she knew what was going to happen and i had made the right decision. i loved her so much and it was so hard to let her go. if i could go back in time and change it i would.
 
I know exactly how you felt that day. Last Monday I had to make the same decision about my boy Sunny. It's so very hard. Being at school that day had to be very very difficult for you. I'll never forget those last moments saying my final goodbye to him. I hope you have found comfort these past 6 months reflecting upon all the joy she gave you over those 5 years.
 
I had to make the same decision with my guinea pig a few years ago and although it's devastating, you did the right thing. My poor girl had broken her back and was dragging her back legs along floor as she had no feeling left in her back end. Absolutely horrifying to see. She was eight years old though so she'd lived a good and very spoilt life. It's not fair to let them to suffer because we want to keep them a little bit longer, it's the right thing to let them go peacefully <3 much love
