Today our little sweet girl Willow lost her fight against her own body. Willow came into our lives as a pets at home "Adoption" on Febuary 17th of this year. She was full of life and love and was always making me smile. Willow fell ill on March 30th, we promised to not give up on her and fight for her until she told us she was ready to go. After countless rounds of Baytril and steroids she was put under for dental work on the 19th of this month. Her head tilt came back completely and she lost the ability to walk only taking a few steps then falling over. The vet told us that it could take a week for her to show improvements due to her neurological issues. Friday Willow became very quiet, only purring when held and wheeking just a little. Yesterday she started loosing the ability to walk at all and loosing weight very fast. No matter how much I fed her we could not get her to gain anything. This mornings AM feed I fould her wheeking, but not able to come out of her pigloo. I fed her and cuddled her singing to her and crying and told her it was ok, that she could just close her eyes and rest. My partner came in and instantly knew and called Willows other owner.

We took Willow to the vets and she was pts. The vet, not her normal one was very kind and said we did all we could for Willow and gave her every chance. But that she could not recover this time. We are all very hurt, dont know what to do with ourselves and angry at pets at home.

We love you Willow, you will always be in our hearts and thoughts. We know you were too good for this world and trapped in a body that wouldnt do what you wanted it to do. But your at peace now and without pain with all the others we have loved and have gone before.

 
I am so sorry for your life. You took very good care oh her and should hold on to that. Take care of yourself in this sad time xx
 
I'm so sorry for your loss. You did everything you could for her and you took care of her. She will now be popcorning in piggie heaven, pain free, with all the other piggie angels.

R.I.P. Willow x>>

We would like to thank you all for your thought, prayers, words of encouragement and advice. It is very hard for my partner and I to get on the computer because it is in what was Willows room. We go in there expecting to hear her wheeking at us and climbing up her teddy wanting us to pick her up. But theres nothing but silence and empty space where her cage was.

I thought I had felt pain when my two rattie girls died last year. It was nothing like this. My partner cannot sleep, I am up every 2 hours thinking I need to feed Willow. Its just hard, this was our first guinea pig and even though I know we didnt have her but a few months she was just a huge ray of light in everyone that met hers world.

Thank you all again.
