I lost both my girls, Maya and Baby, soon after each other this month. I joined the forum as a coping method, as I enjoy hearing stories of other piggies, and it is comforting to know I am not alone as I grieve over my special girls.

RIP my beautiful babies, till we meet again ❤

Hello and welcome to the forum. I am so sorry that is it under such sad circumstances. Sleep tight little ones. I am sorry for your loss *hugs*
 
They were beauties. Feel free to post more of their story and photos on here. We undestand. Be kind to yourself. The grief we feel after the loss of a loved piggy is no less real or powerful than after the loss of any other family member. Popcorn free beautiful Maya and Baby.
 
Hello and welcome, no matter what the circumstances - I'm sorry to hear about your girls, they were a beautiful pair. Popcorn free, girls /hugs
 
Thank you all for kind words of endearment. Their deaths came as quite a shock. Baby (pictured on the right above) was acting off - not eating much, not leaving her hidey, and Maya was following suite. I took them both to the vet, where Baby was diagnosed with UTI.. she was prescribed Baytril and syringe fed baby food/critical care. Maya however, was (seemingly) in perfect health. Her nails were clipped and she was on her way.
Baby had always been frail little thing, and I only got one dose of antibiotics in her before she passed in the early morning snuggled up with Maya. Unfortunalty, I think the loss was too much for Maya, the pair had been bonded since birth, and she started pining. I began syringe feeding her as well, but she joined her sister at the rainbow bridge shortly after. My heart is very much broken, you always think there is more time.
 
Oh my dear. pls accept my sorry and deep sadness. it's horibble when things like this happen. I like yourself lost a piggie and to be honest I was stunned. shock etc. I put a thread on here called "passed away" I now am honest enough to say I was struggling and as you I tried here as my copin. tI was one of the best things I did. The people on here and you will find are Fantastic. i hope you get some as i did. pls keep in touch. xx
