Thank you! Its good to see that he is doing a lot better. Its also easy to use a potato peeler or one of those cheese graters to shave off some veggies to get thin pieces. I have also took some of the pellets and cut them into pieces. (careful you dont cut yourself!!) Are the flakes green?

I'm so glad he's doing better, Pauline! Fingers crossed he'll keep improving! Aww isn't he adorable though... right now he looks a bit like my Lorena only with pink eyes.

He is improving day by day thanks to you all. ;D He has had four feeds today and all by him self, he takes his time but finishes it all in his own time.They are only small dish's but he is eating on his own.I still have to crush every thing or cut it into tiny bits, but he is doing it.

Daniella keeps asking how many days is left for nannie's now? because you told her she can hold the guineapig again and she's so Impressed he dont move. She think's he loves her.

I have also took some of the pellets and cut them into pieces. (careful you dont cut yourself!!) Are the flakes green? Sorry i forgot to say, yes the flakes are green. I just left him tucking into the food, Jackie very kindly sent me. And today i noticed that one of his bottom teeth are missing, i dont know what as happend to it.I cant even find it in his cage.No wonder he is so slow at eating.

Glad he's tucking into the new pellets Pauline. I get mine from www.bunnybazaar.co.uk/ they are shuting down for two weeks on the 5th August. Has his tooth just broken off Pauline? I was talking about babies package mgirl so didn't really go off topic lol

Jackie the tooth broke of right by the gum, not that it makes any difference now. He passed away this morning, it may be for the best but i am gutted. I don't understand it, he was eating so well. At least he had a good feed and knew he was loved before he met his maker.Thank you all once again for all the help you gave me. Janet i was going to call him Wheekers.

I'm really disappointed and very sorry for you poms. I know you tried so had for him to make It and get over the problems he had eating and he was doing so well. The baby was so looking forward to coming up and holding him on the weekend. I told her he died today and she was crying and was very choked up and she wants to smooth him even though he's dead lol.

Oh no! I am sure we didnt expect this! I thought he was caring on soooo well....may I dedicate then my Piggy Angel drawing to him? He was white as is my Angel! So now you have a Piggy Angel...you can use the picture as a new avatar and a memorial to him if you like! i9.photobucket.com/albums/a54/SamNBud/PiggyAngel.jpg"My grief knows no bounds as I lay my head down to cry, but I know my dear Angel is looking upon me from the heavens in the sky." Quote by Levi .....yes I made it up just now!

Jackie and Janet thank you for your kind words, it was just a shock, i cant help thinking if i had left him with Palomino would he still be alive today.
Samnbud, you made me cry! it is so sweet of you, thank you so much.
Mgirl tell her he has gone to a far better place and he is with his mummy.I feel sick to the stomach, i am totally gutted and miss him so much.

Oh I would suggest setting the width and height around 88 or 100 so it can be seen clearly! And if you would you could put in Memory of there so people will know what is happening and as your signature you may use my quote if you like (?).....I know how you feel Pauline I lost one of my babies awhile back and said I quit ...no more cavies....it does hurt, but you will always have his memories!!

Pauline he was meant to be your baby. He enjoyed the best life and care with you. I look at all the evil in the world and it is so disheartening. Then I see people like you and Skipperdoo who rearrange their lives to care and love such small creatures and I'm encouraged. I cried when Kitty's little Milano passed and I cried when Skipperdoo's Max died. Tears today for little Wheekers.

*Hugs* Pauline it wasn't your fault at all. You loved him and cared for him when most people would have just put him to sleep. You gave him a chance he wouldn't have had otherwise. It was just his time to go. He is happy now and isn't suffering anymore, and I'm sure he wouldn't want you to be sad either.
