My beautiful soul piggy Brutus passed away last night, i discovered him when i arrived home:0, Basil and Ralph were still cuddling him and have been very quite ever since:cry: , he was around 2 years old so i have no idea how this happened, he had recovered from his toothy troubles and was eating and pooing well,shiny hair and bright eyes, he showed no signs of this.
Tony dropped in home about 5pm and said Brutus was munching on hay and looked fine.
I didnt get long with my special man just as i didnt with Boris, it seems or at least the way i think about it is they were meant to be together.
I have never met such a calm/friendly piggy and i will miss his wheeking for veges and the way he loves his daddy syringe feeding him.

I was planning on getting Brutus cremated but i cancelled the drop off and decided i would bury him in a bush area near the most beautiful lookout, my sisters piggies Pepsi and sprite are there so he would have company, i decided it was time that i spread half of Boris's ashes so i put them in with Brutus seeing as they were both so special to me,Brutus even took his fleecy with him.Ill miss my spikey haired piggy
here he is

Sleep well my beautiful boy, you now have a forever friend in Boris x 8...8...8...
 
BIG HUG

I am so sorry for you - on top of everything else!

You have given Brutus a most loving home and company and made his life happy. It's not the length of time you have a pet for that counts - it's the love and care that you have to give. Brutus was certainly a very special and precious boy and will be sadly missed by you and his new friends!

RIP Brutus
 
Sorry for your loss! he looked a very handsome friendly boy. I have heard that piggies that have teeth problems early in life sometimes have heart troubles too?

i havent actually heard of that, i was on the phone to the lady from the rescue i adopted brutus from and she told me what to look for and she said wide open eyes can be an indicator of a heart attack but he just looked normal.
I decided not to do anautopsy because ive decided to let Brutus keep his dignity, i guess ill never know

thanks everyone for your kind words x
 
Really sorry to hear your sad news. Brutus looks like such a gorgeous little piggy so it's fitting that you've found him a beautiful spot to rest at x
 
So sorry Bonnie and Tony that you lost Brutus. He was a lucky piggie to have your love in his life. It may have been short in quantity but large in quality. Popcorn free Brutus.
 
Really sorry you lost you special boy
take care
hugs to all remaining

I'm so sorry Bonnie, what an awful shock. Brutus had a good life with you, and I know he will be sorely missed.

I am thinking the same as Eleanor, I'd suspect heart as well - malocclusion (without an obvious cause) can also be a sign of heart issues, along with very sudden death.

Big hugs.

Rest well, dear Brutus. xx
 
So sorry to hear about Brutus. He does look a lovely lil man indeed. They're so defenseless, whether ill or not, aren't they? I just feel sorry for them all. Thinking of you at this sad time, take care. XX
 
So sorry to hear such sad news Bonnie. Brutus was obviously much loved and adored.

RIP Brutus, run free at the Bridge, little one. x x
 
That is so sad, am really sorry, play well at the Bridge with Boris little one.
 
:( What a sudden death...it must be very hard on you. Sorry so much has happened to you lately..RIP you handsome pig, Brutus
 
Bless him, in happy piggy land now, must have been a horrible shock, hope you feel better soon and remember the happy times.
 
I'm so sorry for your loss. RIP Brutus, special little man.
 
I'm so sorry. What a handsome boy Brutus was and he has obviously made a lasting impression. He may not have been with you long but had left a lifetime of memories. Popcorn free ath the bridge Brutus and watch over mummy who will never forget the joy you brought to her.
 
Dear Bonnie and Tony i'm so so sorry about little Brutus 8...8...8...
