Meet Jynx!

I sadly found Sam the Stud in his forever sleep this morning. I weighed and checked him over last night, and all was good, though I noticed he was breathing more heavily than usual and decided to call the vet in the morning.

The fireworks didn't bother him; he was happily asleep in the hay out in the open on Bonfire Night! He'd been showing his age recently, but his weight hadn't dropped and his appetite was as voracious as ever.

The vet saw him last month for a limp ( Signs of a stroke?) and had commented that his heart sounded good, so I think it was just his time. Jasmine had the same symptoms two hours before she passed away, so he may very well have gone shortly after I'd gone to bed.

Here's the final photo I took last night of the Sam the Stud, my good-natured Chonkyboi and absolute unit of a boar. He's already found his love Jynx, I'm sure.

BIG HUGS

I am so sorry. It sounds like it was simply his time.

Try to take comfort in that while it has come as a bad shock to you, Sam had a quick and easy hike to the Bridge under his own steam from his familiar surroundings.

But it is tough to lose two piggies rather close together. Try to picture them togther at the Bridge.

RIP Sam the (handsome) Stud
 
I am sorry Sam had to leave you and I send you lots of hugs. It may comfort you to think of him together with Jynx at the Bridge. He had a happy life with you and would have known you loved him.

Take care of yourself as you process his loss
 
Thanks, folks! Daisy is still a bit shocked by it all and Luna's been quiet too. I'm going to see whether they'll accept each other again, especially if they have a full 2x8 C&C to themselves. However, they've both drawn blood in the past, so I'm not holding out much hope.
 
Oh what a shock for you. I’m so sorry that chunky Sam has made his way to the Rainbow Bridge. Big hugs x
 
So sorry that your handsome boy has crossed the rainbow bridge. Sleep tight Sam.❤️🌈
