RIP Biscuit

[Tricky Red]

A very sad day today for the household as we had to make the heart wrenching decision to have Biscuit put to sleep.

She was an adorable, albeit occasionally grumpy piggie, who had been living on her own after we had lost fudge (both female) last January.

Biscuit was always very vocal and ate everything good for her but two weeks ago she stopped making any noises at all and slowed her eating. The vet showed me that she had a large growth (probably on her kidney) and prescribed her pain relief. Unfortunately this morning, we were advised that it was probably inoperable and being 5 years old the prognosis following a GA was not good.

The Vet was excellent and genuinely interested in us and Biscuit, I would like to extend my thanks to him.

She will be buried in the garden with Brindle, Chestnut, Treacle and Fudge who preceded her to piggie heaven.

Although this is my first post, I would like to thank the forum for the help and comfort it has offered over the last two weeks.

Thank you all for your kind words. My Dad (69 years young!) insisted he help with everything yesterday. He has always been very attached to all the piggies we have had over the years and even had to break the news that one had passed when we were on holiday, which must have been terrible for him.

It really does make a difference when people appreciate and understand that any pet takes a very important role in your life.

The house doesn't feel the same any more.

I feel that it is only a matter of time before we welcome more into the house. I thought that I would share the very last photo that I took of Biscuit only a week ago, being held by Helen.

Sleep well little one.
