Comment on Grieving the loss of a guinea pig by Brodie.

I lost my baby girl, Nell, exactly one week ago, on the 11th. I noticed a few days prior that she was having trouble moving her back legs and by the end of the week she had lost all motor function in her back half and she was downright miserable, so we took her to the vet one last time.

She had only just turned 4 too. She was such a beautiful girl and had such a personality that the hab feels so empty now, even with her two babies in there.

I’m still coming to terms with the fact that I will never hold her, or cuddle her, or see her little face again, but I am so glad that she came into my life and our family (and that we were able to give her one last treat).

Nell died with her belly full of strawberries and her heart full of love, and that’s what I remember the best.
