Valentino is looking good though, and hopefully strongerer by the day...:(|)

Oh bless him :( bet he's having fun at the bridge now tho! Valentino is looking good, come on little one!
 
Oh he is so gorgeous. Do you feel a special bond with him as you are hand rearing him?

When I hand reared thorn he was my baby.. it's hard to explain...
I've hand reared quite a few since then and haven't ever felt what I had with thorn...
But hand rearing a Single pig to a litter of pigs is way more intamet... :)

He's a very special little man... And I do have a special bond with him... Especially as he knows my hands and will come running to them... :)
Went to my moms house today and he was having cuddles with her and she put him on the sofa and I put my hand out and he came toddling over to it and just stood on it... :))
There's nothing more rewarding yet heart breaking than hand rearing...

Oh that is so touching and sweet. Thorn had a really special place in your heart. I wonder if some part of you tries to hold back slightly so you do not get your heart broken again.

Thorn was the most amazing pig.. He had such a zest for life and even though he had illness after illness and had practically lost his eye and at 4 weeks old was the size of a new born baby he just kept going... Greeted me every morning with a chorus of wheeks... He craved my attention and I loved giving it to him... Even though he did bite me.. :)
I can look back on his short life and smile now.. Sometimes with tears in my eyes... But they are happy memories none the less...

Thorn came in to my life when I was having an extremly tough time and he became one of the reasons to get up in the morning and keep going...
And for that I will never ever be able to re pay him...

Look at me getting all soppy... :)

No pig will ever be a special as thorn but I have a select few that hold a place in my heart... Valantino is one of them...

I've not been on the forum for a couple of days so only just caught up with the story of the piggies. So sorry you lost the black and lilac ones but I hope the tri coloured one will keep getting stronger and fitter as time passes. R.I.P little blackie and lilac. Big wheeeks and piggie huggles from me and Gladys.x>>

awwww Valentino you've started me off :0:0:0
That is just so cute and it's fab that he knows you're his mummy Clare x)
 
Valantino is looking a bit worse for wear today... :(
He's got a crackle on his chest and won't lift his head up... Just rests it down on his chin...
He's still got a good apetite though and is still moving around... But it's only a little bit...

Come on little Valentino x x
 
Oh no Clare .......

COME ON VALENTINO YOU HAVE THE WHOLE FORUM BEHIND YOU LITTLE MAN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
Awww, come on wee guy, sending you lots of wheeeeks and healing vibes and keeping everything crossed for you Valantino xx
 
He's still fighting but he's very weak... He's only 40g now... :(
He's not taking good feeds... :(
