[*]Pirate[/*]
On the 13th of September i lost my Gorgeous Pirate. He finally gave up fighting all the things which were hurting him. He was 5 1/2 years old, and had arthritis which was slowly getting worse, and contracted URI like symptoms over his last few days. The morning of the 13th we laid on the floor having a cuddle for hours and he spent the rest of his last day cuddled with Pickwick on the couch wrapped in blankies and cusions.
He is the reason that Piggies are so important to me now, such a tolerant, gentle piggy but ith a big cheeky streak that would raise it's self when he did things he knew he shouldn't! Like eat the newspaper when i was trying to read it. He was devoted to pickwick and used to wash his ears all the time when they were youngsters.
I still despratley want him back.
Young a spritely
In his prime x)
On his 5th Birthday

Heston[/*]
On tuesday the 6th of December I uncovered the hutches in the morning to find my beautiful Heston had falled asleep forever, he was in his igloo with Harvey cuddled with him. He just looked like he was napping.
We always used to joke Heston was a bit 'special' after him being the absolutel least skittish baby pig we've ever known. We got him with his brother in poor condition at 3-4 weeks old. Both had fungal and some kind of dematitis. Heston never, ever made a fuss about anything. And for a long time we thought he was deaf/blind or just backwards. But he wasnt just so docile. He was a dream, with his little 'big' squeek , which was like a broken squeeky toy.
He would have been 4 in febuary.
Tiny baby Heston with Heath (He has the black face, at the front)
Sporting a dodgy summer haircut.
With his new buddy Harvey
Handsome Boys!
I'd also like to add a mention to Pablo, my hamster i had to have PTS in April, Travis, my elderly Hamster who i lost 3 days after Pirate. Nameko - one of my toads who randomly dropped dead. And Baggins my beautiful little 16 year old cat whom i adopted from the shelter i work at only to lose her 3 day's later to a brain hemmorage.
Sleep tight all of you xxxxx
