Adjusting to Life After Sammie

June 23, 2015 By Amanda 6 Comments

June has been crazy.  Five days after I came home from Nashville, Sammie passed away.  I spent that entire week trying to save him.  He ended up passing away in the very early morning of Friday, June 5.  It’s definitely not what I expected to happen right after coming home from a wonderful trip – and I wasn’t even expecting it to happen within the next three years!

Pet Loss: Wynston Grieving the Loss of Sammie

June 8, 2015 By Amanda 6 Comments

My guinea pig Sammie passed away on Friday.  I adopted him in January but in the short time he was a part of our family, I wasn’t the only one who became extremely attached to him.  And I’m not the only one who’s struggling with his loss.

Sammie: A Precious Life Lost Too Soon

June 5, 2015 By Amanda 27 Comments

Early this morning I lost my Sammie.  It was a terrible, tragic death.  I watched him decline so rapidly over the course of four days.  It was painful for me, but I can only imagine how painful it was for him.

March is Adopt a Rescue Guinea Pig Month!

March 2, 2015 By Amanda Yantos 2 Comments

Adopt a Guinea Pig Month

I am so thrilled that there is a month dedicated to guinea pigs!  I’ve had a guinea pig in my life for over 6 years now.  I recently lost my Kirby on 1-23-15 and shortly after, I rescued my Sammie from AZ Piggie Poo Rescue.  I also started volunteering for the rescue and it’s been amazing!
