So devastated as one of my girls had to be put to sleep about this time yesterday. I can't believe I won't see her again. Have had 3 hours sleep since it happened as I can't get the images of her having fits out of my head. Was awful to see and not be able to help her. Not wanting to leave my other girl alone. I can't stop crying, really feel like I've lost a family member. They're like my babies and have been with me through so much. I miss her so bad, really hurts :( I am just happy she is no longer suffering. I just need to vent with people who will understand so thanks for listening.
 
Poor you.Sending you huge hugs.I lost my texel six months ago and was really upset.
 
I'm so very sorry for your loss. It's beautiful how much a part of the family our lovely pets can become, but then have to leave us what seems to be much too soon. But like you said, it is so good that she's not suffering and I'm sure you took great care of her and was there when she needed you most :).
 
I'm really sorry for your loss & know exactly how you feel as one of my piggies passed away on Monday night. I'm still crying thinking of her & know the pain will eventually go away though at present I feel like there's a hole in my heart. R.I.P. little one xx
 
i'm so sorry for your loss. it is really heartbreaking when they have to leave us. hugs x

I know what you mean sometimes your pigs are the only thing that keeps you going I wonder to sometimes how I would cope if I lost them x
 
I am so sorry for the loss of your little piggy. Please feel free to write a memorial for them in our Rainbow Bridge section http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/forums/rainbow-bridge-pets.16/ This forum was such a source of strength for us after we lost our first piggy, you are amongst people who understand how heartbreaking it is to lose a much loved pet. They are such a huge part of your family.
Having a piggy PTS is such a difficult heartbreaking decision but one that is always made with love from us for them, unfortunately it is often the greatest act of love we can ever do for them when they are suffering and leaves us guilt riddled. It is a very brave choice to make.

There is a support service run by the Blue Cross http://www.bluecross.org.uk/2083/pet-bereavement-support-service.html that provides a helpline if you feel you need to talk, or you can always chat to us here on the forum. Massive hugs to you at this sad time x
 
I am so sorry for your loss, that must have been awful to see. Atleast she is no longer suffering now and remeber that you what was right for her. x x
 
I'm so sorry.

I understand completely how you feel because my first guinea pig and my little shadow as I used to call him died the same way. It was awful seeing him have fits. By the time I got to the vet (he had the fits in the car as I noticed he hadn't looked right that day) they said there was nothing they could do and to let him be put to sleep.

I often have the fits replay in my mind as it was so awful. I'm sorry you had to witness it. RIP Little piggie.
 
I'm so sorry for your loss :( Your piggy will know she was loved. Sleep tight little one xx
 
So sorry about your little one, no wonder you were traumatised by what you saw, just remember you did the right thing by her and the love you have for her will never leave you.
 
I'm really sorry and your right no one else gets it that when you lose a pig you lose a loved one wishing you all the happyness in this awful time and hopefully you can get a friend for your other remaining pig
