Sadly our Grandkid's pet guinea pig Cooky was put to sleep today. He was four.
On garden leave at Moonbase whilst renovations take place at our daughter's place, Cooky developed an eye problem yesterday. We booked him at the vets for this morning. Overnight the infection got worse and the vet said they needed to remove the eye. We were gutted. On our watch too.
Our daughter didn't want Cooky to go through such a terrible ordeal. We've had many piggies and ours never did well after operations. She wanted to spare Cooky any more pain.
Cooky was a rescue pig and had a great four years with his new family. He leaves his pal Robin behind.
The Grandkids are very upset. I suppose 'little' deaths like this prepare you for the big ones to come. Maybe.
RIP Cooky.
So sad to hear about Cooky. Our pets are so precious to us. But you guys did the right thing. Letting the animal go at the right time is part of being a loving caretaker.
