Snuggles' medical thread
I am sad to have to say that we came home from church this afternoon to find Snuggles dead. She had seemed to be doing well with the thyroid medication, gaining a little weight and having perked up and seemed happy. She seemed fine last night before I went to bed, when I gave her a treat that she eagerly took and ate.
She seemed OK when we left for church this morning, but we were gone for about 5 hours. Snuggles was my favorite since Panda passed away, and had always been my #2 even before that. She loved to snuggle in the crook of my neck and would alternate that with turning around and watching TV with me for over an hour or so quite contentedly. We are unsure of when her birthday was exactly, but we think it was in late August early September, so I'm guessing she just turned 4 years old.
I'm guessing there was more going on with her thyroid (maybe thyroid cancer?) than we realized. The other piggies (we now have four left) seem subdued and sad. I'm still in shock.
