just want a hand hold really...
my Lightning is 8 , nearly 9 and has started having absence seizures - and stopped eating, like her sister did before she died last year.
Have booked her into the vets on Wednesday - to have her PTS as having seen this before I just can't go through it again and it seems unfair for her to be put through it. - her sister was given pain relief and all sorts of treatments by the vet, and lasted 3 weeks after her first seizures but Lightning is that much older......
don't know why we booked Wed - just seemed right to give her time to rally, but know she won't really, she has pain medication - looks like the kids ibuprofen - but that is it really.
I feel so sad because she is our last, and because she has been an only she is cuddled and loved so much... (she hated other piggies with a vengeance - loved the dog - but he sees her as a bite sized snack!!) We said we would not get more when our last went ( of 4 - but I have had piggies for 35 years) - but that feels wrong....
