Where do I begin. I first met Annie at Cavy Corner rescue when I took bereaved Wilf for a date. She didn't like other piggies who she had met, but the moment she saw Wilf that was it! She fell for him from the first second she saw him.
She was quirky, loud, so very very lovable and loved laptime snacks. She always wheeked when she heard the fridge open or the kettle boil and would be noisily waiting for her veg snacks. She, along with my other piggies, gave me something to come home to every day. She was such a companion as I watched her antics from the sofa. She was a tiny little guinea pig who made a big impression on my heart.
I am now typing this tribute through many tears. I noticed a change in her yesterday as although she came out of her hidey for her snacks, she didn't eat much. I started syringe feeding her last night but by this morning had to take her to the emergency vet as she had laboured breathing. The rest is a bit of a blur but I had to make that terrible decision to help her make the journey to the rainbow bridge where Wilf will be waiting for her.
I don't know what to do with myself right now, I can't eat, I just cry. I love you Annie so much, and I always will, my dear little piggie. I will miss you so much.

I’m so sorry you had to make that decision for Annie. Sounds like she had the happiest todays with you.

Sleep well Annie 🌈
 
What a lovely tribute. You did all you can. She'll be happy to be back with wilf now.

Take care of yourself do what comes naturally eat when you're hungry sleep when you're tired take the pressure off yourself while you grieve.
 
Oh no Glenda. I’m so so sorry for your loss of sweet Annie. Sending lots and lots of love ❤️ x
 
I’m so sorry you’ve had to help Annie over the bridge. But how lovely the love of her life Wilf will be there waiting for her. Take care ❤️
 
Sending you huge hugs, I’m so sorry you have lost Annie so suddenly. She had a wonderful life with you and Wilf and will be back reunited now over the bridge x

Sleep tight little lady 🌈
 
Thank you all so much for your thoughts. I haven't yet worked out how to quote posts from threads.
I keep walking into the room and saying hi to her, before realising she is no longer there. I have given her companion Whisper extra lap time tonight but she didn't eat much of her veg 😢.
 
Such a moving tribute for your beautiful girl.
So sorry for your loss and that you had to make that tough decision and give her a last gift of love.
Be gentle with yourself as you grieve
 
So sorry.
You did all you could. Annie sounds like she was a lovely little character.
Sending you massive hugs from one Glenda to another.
Be gentle with yourself while you grieve.

I am so sorry that you’ve suddenly had to say goodbye to Annie. It’s the hardest decision we are ever called upon to make but you loved her enough to ease her suffering and to let her go. Huge hugs xx

She was living her best life with you and Wilf and then Whisper.

You gave Annie her best life and take comfort that you couldn’t have done any more
Look after yourself ❤️
