Urgent baby help

Ah I do feel so stupid. And embarrassed!
I think I do need to step back for a little while, for a breather as I’ve caused so much chaos.
The more I think back, I think we got talking because I have Banner (a Cali) and she said she also owned some Cali pigs. It was nice to meet someone else who had a Cali. I didn’t even realise Banner was Cali until someone on here pointed it out, so I was happy to learn more.
I feel so stupid for believing. I work in the horse industry and you think all these years would have taught me better!
I think my heart just got the better of me. I wanted to go get him and take care of him.

I am so so sorry to everyone on here, for any upset I have caused. If there’s a way I can also donate to the rescue centre to help with his care (I’m not sure which one it is)? Let me know and I’ll get in touch with them.

Please don't feel embarrassed, these things happen. It is awful that someone tried to take advantage of your kind nature. At least the little fella is getting the help he needs now.

Like you I would also be happy to make a donation to help with his care.♥️

Over the last 10 years my team and I have been involved with some horrors but this situation is by far the worst for sheer deceit and total lack of regard for a Guinea Pigs welfare by a breeder.We are supporting the rescue concerned who have helped out this poor animal and shall be contributing to veterinary bills.

Bradshaw Piggies you did the right thing bringing it to the forums attention, your just a victim of breeders using social media for sympathy x

I’m more than happy to also contribute some money toward his care. Anything else I can do, please let me know x
 
It sounds like someone who shouldn't be allowed to have animals. If the conditions really were that bad and she left him to suffer it would be good to see her prosecuted.

Thank you. I would save them all if I could! The thought of him in desperate need was heart breaking, I should have thought more with my head! :hug:

I don't bother with Guinea Pig Facebook groups. I have taken a look and seen too much bad advice given. I will stick to the forum and supporting the great work of the reputable rescues I follow on Facebook.😃

The only Guinea Pig group I am a member of is the forum, I don’t recommend or participate in any other social media Guinea Pig groups other than our own rescue group. I promote this forum whenever I can 😀

You can’t save every animal or human you just do what you can for those who cross your path, just like I do at the hospital. Let it go now, carry on using the forum and you can use your experience to help others. Your heart is in the right place 😘x
 
I’ve just heard that the gorgeous little man has travelled over the rainbow bridge 🥲 His odds were never great, I wish she had got him help sooner. Go join the others over there and have fun little man 🌈🌈🌈

:'( it's always a sad day when one so young has to go. Sleep tight little man.

You did everything you could and gave him the best shot at life.

The only person who should feel guilty is the breeder. And they probably dont care :(

I was following his progress at the rescue centre. They did an amazing job with him. I’m so glad he experienced such love and care in his last few days. It’s really broken my heart his story 💔
 
He experienced true love and care in his last days. And that is down to you. Unfortunately he likely won’t be the last in that situation.

Sleep tight and have suffering and pain free fun over the rainbow little one.
 
Thank you all. I’ve had a chat with the rescues concerned who’ve also reassured me of how loved he was. It’s nice to be able to talk to them and share some feelings and stories, as I’m really heartbroken about this little guy. I even offered to drive 2 hours to go get him from the breeder and take him to a vet myself. I wanted to help him so much.
but he was always better off in the experienced hands of the rescue and they did such a fantastic job.
 
It was sad to read, but not unexpected. Main thing was he wasn't in pain and had full attention and care of person who loved him. I still can't believe the breeder just carries on her 'business'.

This little guy had the best of everything at the end of his life. He was truly loved & cherished as he passed the Bridge.

It is just breaks my heart that this little soul was left to suffer for 6 days before being surrendered and that there are no repercussions for the breeder. I hope she rots in hell.😡
