Senior Guinea Pig
My darling Doctor passed away at 1.30 this afternoon.
I left him at the vet's this morning for an investigation. After an x ray the vet saw Dr's teeth had grown back even bigger than before. He gave Dr anaesthesia and cut the teeth. Dr woke from anaesthesia and seemed well. Then suddenly he went into respiratory and cardiac failure. The vet was with him at the time and said Dr was peaceful.
I was too scared to ring the vet while I was at work. I came home to answer machine messages explaining what had happened. I went to the vets to see Dr. The vet gave me the chippings from Dr's teeth and his xray. Riffy, Scarby and I are taking Dr to my parents' in Cornwall this weekend.
Darling Darling Doctor, you are no less special just because you are in a different place. You brought so much love, fun and laughter to my life. Your fabulous coat, your chirrupy songs, your stampy back feet, they will be in my thoughts and my heart for ever. God bless you, Dr, and goodnight. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
