Hi everyone.
I’ve posted recently about my poorly piggy Poppy... she had a vet visit this evening and unfortunately she’s had to be put to sleep. It was a hard decision and it’s something I feel awful and guilty for. She was my baby for the last 4 years, and her sister who I sadly lost 2 months ago. 2 piggies in 2 months :( I’m so heartbroken. I cannot stop crying and I just feel like I’ve done the wrong thing. There wasn’t anything that could be done for her, she was critically ill but I just wish I could have done something to save her, not rid her of her life. I can’t bare looking at the empty cage in my room, I feel physically sick a piece of me just feels like it’s gone, I feel empty.

Oh poor you. You did what was the only kind thing it's the last act of love that we can give our dearest friends. She is no longer ill or in pain. She has met up with her sister at the Rainbow Bridge and they are once more popcorning together and playing zoomies! You have had a terrible couple of months. Take time for yourself. Blaming yourself and wishing there was more you could do is all part of the grieving process. Have a hug cos you need one. :hug:
 
Please don’t blame yourself. You’ve been called on to make the toughest decision any of us have to face. But you didn’t let your girl down. You loved and cared for her and took her to the vets when she needed it. Sadly we can’t save them all. These little souls leave a huge hole in our hearts when they go. It’s the price we pay for loving them. Huge hugs. We are here to support you.
 
I feel for you, as I just lost my little boy hamlet, 3 days ago. I know I did everything I could but I feel I let him down. Spent the last 3 days crying and eating chocolate. Poppy and Hamlet are in a better place, we aren't. Hopefully, you and I will be in a better place, as time goes on.
 
She was so beautiful. I am so sorry for your loss... I admire your compassion for her.
