Lost our lovely guinea, she fell asleep a while ago. She's left behind a faithful friend, Rosie-roo. :-(

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember how absolutely gutting it was to lose every guinea pig I've had (well, every animal,) and how special each and every one can be. Big hugs to Rosie-roo and I hope she can find a new friend soon.

This makes me well up every time I read it!

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.

There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.

There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Really sorry to hear of your loss yodelayheehoo, we lost our Poppy this morning, our beautiful old piggie, mornings will not be the same without her breakfast order squeaks. It's heartbreaking when they go, but that's how we know we loved them well. Kritiq, that didn't make me just well up it made me full on cry, I think we will include it in the funeral tomorrow.

Oh poor piggies Sad

I'm hoping it was Old Age for Daisy-Doo and Poppy.

I had lots of GPs as a child and it was really sad when they went.
Some died in our arms, some just in their sleep.
But they knew they were looked after and cherished.
As I'm sure Daisy-Doo and Poppy were.
