It’s with a heavy heart that I have to let you know I had to have Sky put down just an hour ago. Her horrible lipoma had started to block her vent and she had started having problems going to the toilet, all whilst squeaking/in discomfort trying to go. I’m really upset as she was so special to me, and she will be hugely missed by Sol as well. We will miss her so much. This was her and Sol just this afternoon. Rest peacefully my little Skysie.

I’m so so sorry Becca. Sky was indeed special and she had a lovely life with you and Sol. It will take both of you time to process. You saved Sky from more discomfort.
RIP Sky

I am so sorry, Becca. You and Sol will miss her terribly. I know how heartbreaking it is to listen to that squeak and knowing there is only one way you can help. I went through the same thing with Smudge. It was a brave decision to make, and the right one, I’m sure.
Rest In Peace sweet Sky. No more pain or discomfort ever again. Xx. Hugs to you and Sol, Becca.

Thank you so much for everyone’s replies, it feels like many of you ‘knew’ her and so it means a lot to read the messages. I did wake up and think ‘is she really gone’, it’s very strange without her and I miss her so much already. I’m trying to give Sol extra attention as he’s obviously on his own and he has been looking for her but honestly I don’t think he knows she’s gone because I used to separate them from time to time anyway so Sky could have a break (Sol often wanted to just hump her!! ). Apart from the obvious of spending more time with him and leaving the radio on if I’m not in the room is there much else I should be doing? I guess I’m maybe just overthinking and hoping he won’t become depressed without her. Also, I did have a couple of videos/photos of Sky’s lipoma so I did think about posting about them in the health section purely in case anyone else wants to see for future reference - do you think this is a good idea? In the end the lipoma grew too fast for diet and her liver supplement to make a difference, despite her taking to pellets so well after years of being on seeds. The lipoma started to obstruct her vent and she started squeaking constantly trying to poop, which is when I felt enough was enough. Thanks again for all of your kind comments. Love from both me & Sol xxxx

Since Sky and Sol have had time apart recently, he may not grieve as fiercely as he may have if they had been constantly together. All you can do is watch him and see how he copes, lots of TLC, if he lets you. Seriously not sure about the videos, myself, not having seen them. If you are in two minds as well, feel free to PM them to me and we can talk about it. . Marianne Marlow?
