Saturday 26th November 2016, Sweep was helped over the bridge.

Sweep is my old neutered boy who was adopted at age 3.5- 4.5 years old (aprox) from the RSPCA 2.5 years ago.

From day 1 he was the sweetest, gentlest, crazy boy. He was from day 1 my best friend who i adored.
He lived happily with 2 cage mates Honor and Nala who both passed before he did...and was paired with Pandora back in april 2016. They lived happily together until about 2/3 weeks ago when they had a falling out due to Pandora developing Ovarian Cysts. The hope wad to put them back in together now Pandora was spay....but Sweep beibg an old man i needed to be sure...as he has slowed down alot the past few months.

Sweep was always so loud....food obsessed and people friendly....always at the bars for cuddles he slowed doen to where he slept most the day in his cozy beds.

Sweep after a very short illness went downhill fast and i knew he wanted me to let him go...

I had a nice cuddle with him and said goodbye before the vet helped him go to his forever sleep. I am so sad and crushed ....i lost my best friend. He was precious and i loved him loads.

I will forever miss him.

The best friend anyone could ever have....there will never be another boy like Sweep. So people friendly and confident....always at the bard wheaking for cuddles and attention.

You have definitely given this special gent the happiest of times and a glorious retirement!
He will always live with you in your heart. By the time he came to you, Sweep knew who he was and knew what he wanted in life - and you have given him that and have got so much back in turn! That is what makes adopting older piggies such a wonderful thing.

RIP Sweep
 
Huge hugs Jenny, I am so sorry you had to let your special handsome little guy go. He was such a character and one of my favourite forum piggies. He has had such a wonderful life with you and his ladies. Please look after yourself, we are all here for you. x

Sleep well gorgeous boy

RIP Sweep

I'm so sorry Jenny :( You gave him the best home a pig could have. Sleep tight little man, run free over rainbow bridge xx
 
I'm so sorry xx Some piggies burrow very deeply into your heart and Sweep was one of those. It's heartbreaking to have to make that decision for him but you were brave enough to love him enough to let him go. That was the kindest and most selfless act of love. Popcorn free Sweep. Hugest hugs xx
