Junior Guinea Pig
Hi all.
Just reflecting a little.
One of my piggies (I have 4 now) is poorly and will *possibly* be euthanised this week.
It is incredibly sad, but, she is a grand old age of 6.5 so I feel she has lived a long, and luxurious life.
All of my girls are now of similar age.
While I'm obviously upset at their passing, it's also hard because when I first got these girls my life was so different.
6.5 years ago, I was married, had a beautiful dog whom I loved so much, and had no children.
Now, I am a divorced single mum, and whose dog was put to sleep 2 months after my separation.
It's just also for me a little upsetting as each time I loose one of my piggies, it's like loosing a part of that old life that used to be me. I mean, I left the marriage etc, but it's still just a weird feeling. A tie to that old life that used to be mine.
I'm fine, and I'm ok, but each time a piggie dies, because they're all older than my children, it's just such a weird feeling. It's loosing a part of myself also.
Fingers crossed my poorly girl will improve, but with her age now, I don't think she will. But I've been blessed for them to have had this long with me
Thanks for reading xx
