This morning we had to say goodbye to Amy. On Thursday she was slightly off her veg and by Friday morning she wasn't interested in food at all so off she went to Simon in Northampton. He found pus coming out of her and suspected a very bad case of cystitis, though Pyometra could not be ruled out. He thought though that there would be more pus with that. She came home on Sulfatrim and Metacam and we were able to use Tramadol if needed. That evening she still wasn't eating for herself so was being syringe fed. This morning we found her very flat and with very laboured breathing. We rushed her straight to the local vet who agreed that she was shutting down and let us stay with her while she was PTS.

Amy was just over 5 and came to us from the Pets at Home adoption centre. She had been accidentally mixed on her transport to the store so had been on pregnancy watch. She was 16 weeks old. Over the years she became a very well respected member of the herd and was very affectionate with her herd mates, especially the skinnies Katie and Mary. She was always first to dive in the clean hay and loved chin rubs.

Sweet dreams beautiful angel, I hope Moo was waiting for you at the bridge. We will love you always.

That is an absolutely lovely tribute to a beautiful and lovely natured lady. I'm so sorry that you have lost your lovely Amy. You made the kindest decision for her. You loved her enough to help her to the Bridge. Big hugs xx. Popcorn free Amy xx

Gorgeous Amy, you'll be sorely missed RIP beautiful lady xx
 
Oh Helen and Ross I am so sorry. Amy was such a sweetie, she had such an amazing home full of love with you. I am deeply sorry for your loss. She would have known her mum and dad were with her at the end when she crossed the Bride to be reunited with Moo. Huge huge hugs to you both x

Sleep well pretty lady

RIP Amy

So very very sorry for your loss. Amy was a stunning piggy who found a great home with you and your herd. It's always hard when a pet is taken so suddenly and there is no way we can prevent it but remember she is always in your heart. Rest in peace little one and popcorn free over the rainbow bridge. X
 
You know you made the right decision as awful as it was. You took her personality into consideration throughout her ill-health and that's the best thing we can do for them as no pig is the same as another.

Sending hugs x
 
I'm so sorry for your loss. Rip beautiful Amy, popcorn free at the rainbow bridge. X

Lots of love to you and Ross x x
