Yesterday I had to make the horrible decision to have Sukie PTS, after her bladder problems had become severe. She had suspected kidney failure too, and was losing weight at a rapid rate, despite syringe feeding and still nibbling at food.

Sukie was my last pet shop animal, who I bought 5 years ago in a hurry after a sudden death. She was the last piggy in the shop, so no-one wanted her!

She was a right scruffbag and didn't really look that pretty when we first got her (obviously didn't matter to us, but is probably why she was the last in the shop!), but kind of grew into her hair and became a pretty piggy with a big smile and a lovely soft personality. The other two feisty madams brought her out of herself, and she gained quite a lot of confidence in her later years.

Confusingly, she kind of had two names, as we mostly called her Snow!

As a young piggy:

Cutest smiley piccy ever, which was taken just before all 3 piggies started their bladder issues (so years ago now!):

Is it safe to come out?

This is one of the last piccies, taken in the summer just after I'd given her a summer haircut:

This one was also taken this year, with her best friend Holly:

I know you shouldn't have favourites, but she was mine.

RIP Snow Pig. x
 
She is a lovely pig and what great pictures.
I can see that you made the right decsion and now she is at peace running free at rainbow bridge.

RIP Sukie.
 
She was absoloutely adoreable. Its hard not to have a favourite as there is always a piggie that has an extra special place in your heart. Sukie will be safely at Rainbow Bridge now and I'm sure wont be short of male admirers! Sleep well little one, you have left wonderful memories that will live forever..

I am so sorry for you - it's such a heartbreaking decision to make! You have battled so hard for all your cystitis girls; I am sad that you lost yet another hard battle.

From your wonderful and loving pics, I can fully understand why Sukie/Snow was so special to you! What a personable and beautiful lady!

RIP - Sukie; you will be sadly missed on this side of the Rainbow Bridge, but have hopefully found good company to popcorn with!
 
I like the picture of snow and holly so cute! You can tell she was a very loving piggie, I feel for you having to make such a hard decision but it was for the best! I bet she is happily pop corning at the rainbow bridge :)! Yet another little star! Sleep peacefully little one, Never forgotten :)!
 
I am so sad to hear Sukie has passed, Sarah. She was a stunning girl, I know you loved her so much. Big hugs to you.

Rest well, beautiful Sukie. xx
 
Aww i'm so sorry hun. 8... You did the right thing though, i'm sure it's what she will have wanted you to do. She'll be happy now and they'll be no more bladder problems. R.I.P Sukie, Snow, you were a lovely little Guinea Pig. Emma, x
 
She was a beautiful girl and she will be happy forever. She had a safe and happy life and I am sure that will still continue. x
