I know I don't post often but things have been going well for me and my piggies were well. Then today I noticed that Sophie, my oldest and 1st, wasn't as excited as she normally was. Well, fast forward to an hour ago. I went down to throw in some laundry and the cage is in the family room right next to it. I look over and she is half out of a pigloo kind of convulsing! I knew it wasn't right and she was barely moving. I called dh and have wrapped her in a towel and have been holding her. She liked me the best out of all my piggies and always seemed the happiest to see me and squeaked at me all the time. My kids are so sad. I didn't want her to be alone so I hope she knows I'm holding her.

I held Momma and Molly that way at the end. There's nothing you can do, just hold her and let her know she's love and not alone. I am so sorry you have to go through this

She's still hanging on. Sometimes she jerks her paws a bit or blinks but that's it.

I am so sorry, I was with Obi and Lisa when they passed away, as hard as it is I am happy I was with them. There isnt much I can say, only that I know how you feel. Sending you lots of hugs.

This is how it was with my Holly, except she seemed to be in pain so it was in the car on the way to the vet for euthanasia. It's so hard. I'm sure she knows you're there, even if she can't show it. If it's going on too long and she seems to be in pain, a vet can give her a peaceful ending with euthanasia. Sending hugs. ((()))

BIG HUG I am so sorry; it is very hard watching a pigy of your passing away, but you are doing the right thing - she can leave, carried by your love.

please take solace in the fact you gave Sophie a wonderful life and that she feels (like always) your love and support. Its difficult to lose a pet, but perhaps that is why that bond between us and our pets is so special. We dive head first knowing these moments are inevitable eventually. My Sympathies and Support, Erin
