I am heartbroken to announce that my baby Ella was helped over the rainbow bridge yesterday evening 😞 it’s too raw but she had a huge swelling in her jaw which Vince the vet believed to be the boney mass growing again and she was in a lot of pain 😞 Another operation would only have been a short term measure and I couldn’t put her through all that again 😞 I would like to thank everyone who offered support and advise since her tooth broke in March. There was something more sinister going on and my girl battled on for 7 months. She’s at peace now but the pain is unbearable 😞

I adopted Ella along with Esme from a forum member back in March 2021 to live with Elizabeth and Edward. Ella was a scared little girl when I first adopted her but she soon came out of her shell and was always first to the veg plate. She has lived happily as a group of 4 until Edward died last summer. I hope she’s been reunited with him at the rainbow bridge and that he’s going to look after her. It’s been a pleasure to be her mummy for the last two and a half years. We’re going to miss her so much

Sleep tight my beautiful girl. You’re out of pain now. Please watch over Elizabeth and Esme, they’re hurting too 😞 xx 💔💔 xx

I will be taking a little time out of the forum while I grieve my girl xx

I’m so sorry that I’ve had to say goodbye to Ella. You and she battled so hard against whatever was going on. You have shown her so much love and kindness and given her such a great life with your little herd. Run free over the Rainbow Bridge beautiful Ella. Huge hugs to you Claire xx
 
Sorry for your loss. You did everything you could for Ella and she knew she was loved. I’m sure she’s reunited with Edward over the rainbow bridge x

So very sorry to read that you have lost Ella.
She was a beautiful girl and had a wonderful life with you.
Be gentle with yourself as you grieve.
We will miss you on the forum but it’s understandable to want time off to grieve.
We will still be quietly supporting you in the background
 
Sorry to read of your loss. Popcorn free with your friends over the rainbow bridge Ella. 🌈
 
Sending hugs to you at this sad time. The pain of loss is hard to bear but she will always be with you in your heart. Edward will take care of her over the rainbow bridge until you meet again
RIP with Edward sweet girl 🌈
 
I am so sorry that Ella's jaw cancer has blown up so suddenly and with such devastating speed. I've been keeping my fingers firmly crossed for her all summer. But she has had a very happy life with you and her piggy friends.

Don't get into too many grass tussles with Eddie at the Bridge now, Ella!

Here are a few more pictures from holidays spent here:

Oh @Claire W, I’m so, so sorry to read your very sad news :hug:She was such a gorgeous girl, and so lucky to find a mum like you who has given her such an amazing life xx
Sorry I haven’t been around much recently but really hope you’re ok, sending ginormous hugs from me and the gang xx
Sleep tight Ella you beautiful little lady ❤️ xx
 
Thank you so much everyone for your kind words, they mean a lot ❤️ Thank you @Wiebke for the beautiful photos, she really enjoyed her holidays with you ❤️

I’m struggling really bad without Ella. It’s just made worse as she was so bright and alert but she was also in a lot of pain with the cancer in her jaw and was hiding it well 😞

I’m hurting so much and just want my girl back 😞 x
