Sad news: RIP Eetu
May 21st, 2009 at 11:41am
 
Last Sunday morning I received a text message from my ex about Eetu, our guinea pig. The message was short: pray for Eetu, he is very ill.

Mom and I were, luckily, just about to leave for Middle Finland to our summer cottage and I had made plans with my ex that I would visit Eetu and Kasper on the way.

Well, we never made it to Jyväskylä when my ex called, crying, and told the news: Eetu had passed away.

My ex had called a vet, but before the vet called back, it was too late (back at the city where my ex lives no vet clinic is open during weekends) and Eetu was already gone. The diagnosis was: probably a heart attack. My ex told me that Eetu had been bit different during the past three weeks, but he only stopped eating (which is always a serious matter with guinea pigs and sign of dangerous disease or approaching death) the night before.

Few hours later I got to say my farewells to the little Eetu. He was already placed inside a tiny box and looked as if he was running to a better place without pain.

RIP my little friend.... I will miss you... Cry Cry Cry

Sanna

Here's the little guy like I want to remember him:

Thank you so much, Jeannie and Barry.

It was extremely sad to see Eetu... I imagined, naturally, that he would live a long life - he made it to 2 years and 9 months.

I worried in advance about Kasper, because the two of them have lived their whole lives together. I've heard that in those circumstances the other guinea pig can follow soon after and die in heartbreak...

But, when I saw Kasper, he seemed the same happy guinea pig I recalled. That was a huge relief! We did wonder, if Kasper had known long before that Eetu was about to pass away. I believe that he did.

It warmed my heart to notice that Kasper actually still recalled me! He came to "greet"me almost as soon as I had arrived. That was a nice surprise. Smiley And made the sorrow of losing Eetu easier to bare.

Now I hope that little Kasper will live a long, happy life and stay around for years to come. Smiley

Sanna
