A week ago today my beautiful piggy passed away and I miss her so much. I first met her when I went to a rescue for a companion for a grieving piggy and loved her as soon as I saw her. She had been taken in as an emergency due to neglect but her sister had passed away before help got there. She had a great personality and bonded with every piggy who lived with her over her time with me. She would always greet me with a 'well, where are my snacks' look whenever I came into the room and at snack time each evening she would sit on my shoulder, eat her veg snacks then lick my nose. She liked her cuddles too.
Her passing was traumatic for me following an op but I hope she never knew what was happening to her.
There is a deep void in my heart right now but I know she is no longer in pain and is meeting her sister and friends at the rainbow bridge. Her companions here have gone very quiet, even 7 days on, they will be missing her too but I brought her home from the vets and they said their goodbyes in their own way.

Be at peace now my sweet Whisper until we meet again xx

What a beautiful piggy, it sounds like she had a beautiful personality too. I am so sorry you lost her.
Sleep tight sweet Whisper.
 
What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful piggy.
Whisper will always have her place in your heart.
Be gentle with yourself as you grieve
 
I’m so sorry you lost your sweet Whisper. Now munching snacks at the rainbow bridge with her friends. Sleep tight little one ❤️🌈
 
Sorry for your loss. She sounded like a very special girl who I’m sure will live in your heart forever. Sleep tight beautiful Whisper x
 
I am so sorry that you lost your beauty under traumatic circumstances when things went totally haywire for her and you.
She will always have a firm place in your heart. Please remember that you did your best to buy her a chance at a longer life that would otherwise not have had. We never make these decisions casually but we also never have any guarantees for the outcome. :(

Sorry for answering so late. I still felt too fragile after my very unexpected double loss in lessthan 48 hours in August at the time.

Thank you.

Both sows were part of trios so at least no bonding required this time round.
The deaths came right on the heels of the heatwave and the massive humidity (the heat I had under control). Heilin was gettting rather frail and was booked in for a vet check later in that week once temperatures were comfy again. Maelona was the real bummer.

It never gets any easier or less painful... and I still have got quite a bit of not fully digested trauma coming up from when I lost 22 piggies in 24 months between August 2021 - August 2023 and went into grieving overload for a while during that time.
I have loved (and still love) every single one of all those piggies but there was just never time enough to give each their due time and emotional space to mourn before the next wodge of 2-3 deaths (often in a matter of days) hit so there is still grieving homework hanging around. :(
