IMG_0409.webp IMG_0791.webp IMG_0090.webp IMG_0503.webp I had to have my gorgeous piggy mummy pig put to sleep yesterday after being ill.When I got back from my holiday on the 24th June I could see she was a bit skinnier so I weighed her the next morning and she'd lost weight.She appeared to still be eating veggies although it was taking her longer to eat them.I started syringe feeding mushed up nuggets until I could see my local vets Monday.He told me he could feel a mass and that her teeth were overgrown so I should have her put to sleep.I wasn't happy with that but couldn't get her in to see Simon until this Monday.By that time she'd lost more weight and was feeling very sorry for herself despite syringe feeding and giving her metacam.Simon did her teeth and pulled out a bladder stone from her urethra which was obviously the initial cause of pain.He also said her kidneys felt strange but wouldn't do a blood test to test their function as it would finish her off.I actually had hope for her because after seeing Simon and waiting for the bus back to daventry I went into tescos with her and bought a load of veg and she seemed much more interested than the previous few days.Unfortunatly after 2 night feeds and feeding again in the morning she was so weak and wouldn't even swallow it.I decided that if she was still suffering by 9 yesterday morning then I would take her to the vets to end her suffering.I'm just so heartbroken, I had her for 3 and a half years and she was such a sweet natured pig, very quiet unless she heard you come down the stairs or come in the front door, then she would squeak her head off.I feel like if I hadn't of gone on holiday then I would've spotted this straight away and she'd still be here.
RIP mummy pig, I won't ever forget you xx
 
Aww I'm sorry to hear this and don't unify yourself, you did everything right for her
 
I am so sorry you've lost mummy pig, she was gorgeous. That one with her & her spotty bow. Is definitely one for the album or in a frame on the wall. Hugs for you.
Sleep tight Mummy Pig,
Run free to the rainbow bridge

Thank you for your kind words and I'm sorry for your loss too xx
 
I'm so sorry. You did everything you possibly could for her including making the kindest and most selfless decision for her. You did everything out of love. You have nothing to blame yourself over. Be kind to yourself - you deserve it xx. Popcorn free beautiful lady.
 
You should be proud of everything you did for your little lady!
I lost my boy after making the same decision two days ago after 4 days around the clock syringe feeding after
I had a few days break and a friend watched them for me. Please do not blame yourself! The decision is always so
difficult but remember, an hour too soon is always better than an hour too late.
Just remember it isn't a goodbye, they're waiting for us over rainbow bridge!
You did the kindest thing for her, she didn't suffer and had a lovely life with you!
Be happy at the times you had together and keep smiling.

Hugs! x
 
I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful girl. You really did all you could for her and were there for her when she needed you the most in the end to help her across the bridge, it is the last act of love we can do for them and such a brave thing to do. Try and remember she had a life full of love and was so very cherished.

Huge hugs to you at this sad time x

Sleep well pretty girl

RIP Mummy Pig

I am so sorry for your loss. Mummy Pig was stunning indeed!

You did all you could, but sadly even the best of vets can only do so much - you have not failed her in any way.
Mummy Pig would have known how you cared for her and how deeply you loved her.
