Sadly, Telyn's straining heart stopped beating just before midnight, only hours after showing the first symptoms of illness. Hywel and her mum Taffy were standing guard over her. I still can't believe what has happened; Telyn is the second girl now that I have lost to sudden heart failure after Ffion last summer.

I have often been asked who is the favourite amongst my piggies. While I love them all to bits, Telyn had a special place in my heart. She was the only of my piggies I have had since she was a baby and she has literally grown up with the Tribe since its beginnings. Telyn has never failed to cheer me up and make me smile.

As a youngster, Telyn had a very loud voice, a truly ear splitting wheek, a real flair for the dramatic. Coupled with the fact that she simply couldn't shut up when she was excited, it earned her her moniker which then became her name - "the harp".

I just loved watching her expressive, pert little face and that funny bum. Telyn was always very clued up and had her own ways of getting her due share. Like her mum, Telyn grew into a good natured, caring lady who was very much at the heart of the Tribe.

Good bye, Telyn! I can't express how much I miss you!
 
Oh Wiebke, I am so very sorry :0 We all know your name and your piggies on here so feels personal to us and many members will be very sad to hear your news. You gave me some comforting advice last week when my piggy was going in for his bladder stone surgery and when my other boys were neutered back in March and I was in pieces - wish I could do something to make your pain go away.
Telyn was a beautiful girl and will be sadly missed, so very sorry again :(
Run free forever sweet little Telyn and send hugs to you all x>>
 
Oh Wiebke I'm so sorry to hear this news. I had to double take when I saw your post. I'm welling up myself.
What a lovely tribute to your gorgeous 'drama queen' lovely to see that collection of photos. Sounds like she is going to leave a big gap in the tribe and your heart. At least she was with her friends and family right til the end.
Sending you a huge hug x

it has been a priviledge knowing Telyn - first meeting her as a baby, then following her growing up her on forum.
i will miss her, but i know it will never come close to the loss that you, Taffy and the Tribe will feel.
Sleep well Little Harp
love
