Hi guys,
It is with a heavy and very broken heart to tell you that after a short but serious illness, my little polar bear has left us.
I am so overcome with grief and heartbreak. He went peacefully and so very loved at home, in my arms until his final heartbeat.
I put the cozy that Walter was lay in for his final days into the cage with Gus and I also let Gus say goodbye to Walter after he passed. Gus licked his eyes and ears and lay down beside him looking extremely lost and heartbroken.
I am comforted by the fact that Walter knew he was loved, and had a very peaceful goodbye.
I'm trying so very hard to do what is best for Gus now, despite what an emotional train wreck I am. I will give him a few days to grieve and then take him to Cavy Corner for him to choose his own friend.
Walter will never be replaced, he is in my heart and memories forever. I so badly wish I could have saved him, but nothing could be done. The vet did everything possible on her part and I loved him and made sure he was very comfortable for his final days. I even took him to bed with me (in his vet box which smelt of Gus too) so I wouldn't miss a single second with him.
Goodnight my little Walter bear. We'll love and miss you forever. You brought us so much happiness, laughter and love, and I am very lucky to have been your piggy mama these last few years
