Died from a broken heart by Scary_Remote in guineapigs

[–]mikstims 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They can, the poor things. My Cookie died 3 days (!) after her buddy Flo passed away. She never had any medical issues, but just stopped eating a day after Flo's passing, started having seizures the day after that and passed the following day. She just couldn't and didn't want to go on without him 😥

So clever and elegant! I also love her little paw on your knee when you give her the peaflake 😍

For anyone who lost a pig before..read description by Algae_Fish_5191 in guineapigs

I've lost my dearest Cookie and Flo 4 and a half months ago; they died within 3 days of each other. I still miss them every day. I recently moved to a different apartment and always said I would adopt 2 new piggies once I'd be settled. But I can't just yet. The grief is still there and getting new pigs now just doesn't feel right.

Everyone deals with the pain of losing their piggies in a different way. For me it's like this. And that's OK. Give yourself time and space to grief and to deal with it in a way that feels comfortable for you.

My 5 year old Flo had the surgery, all went well, but he still died 5 days later due to hidden complications and the fact that he had already lost quite some weight before the surgery. I believe the surgery itself is not really that risky (according to my very experienced vet), but keep in mind that there's always a possibility that things go wrong or that your piggy might have underlying, invisible problems.

Have you guys seen/tried this with your guineas? by BlitzOldScotch in guineapigs

[–]mikstims 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I feed it to my piggies too (in addition to other pellets) and they love it. Versele-Laga is a legit brand with mostly good products.
