A Week Without Squeak, I miss that guinea pig so much.... Options

[SqueakCurly]

Last Wednesday night Squeak, my wonderful guinea pig, passed away of an upper respiratory infection and of old age. Her body just wore out.

I still feel the pain and the grief. Squeak was so amazing and unique. If I could wish for anything right now, it would be for Squeak to come back to me.

It feels like just yesterday that Squeak's tongue lovingly licked my hand, yet it feels like it's been a year. So many feelings...I feel so confused and lost. No one seems to understand. It's just a guinea pig, they're thinking...

...but she wasn't just a guinea pig. She was special, my special little girl. I loved the feeling of her whiskers tickling my nose. She had a special spark in her eye. I tried to follow her motto..."Love life!" She truly was a special piggy.

I no longer have any guinea pigs. People are expecting me to get more. I'm not ready yet...but how could I ever explain that to them? They wouldn't understand.

I know you're with your best friend and half-sister now, Squeak. Curly was waiting for you at the bridge, I'm sure, to show you around your new world. I know you're exploring it right now and loving every minute of your spirit life...just like you did when you were alive.
