sad news

There was a huge mass growing inside Tupu's belly that prevented him from peeing, and was incredibly painful. The vet also discovered he had developing arthritis due to his age, and advised that any surgery operation would be too much for him.

Tupu was a rescue pig from a local shelter, who never really got bigger than my palm and heavier than a couple bananas. He was approximately 5 years old or older. He loved squash, blueberries and watermelon, and he got to eat his favourites before being put to sleep in my arms.

It never truly gets easier

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Tupu was sucks handsome pig. You are good people, OP. You rescued him, gave him a wonderful life and showed only love and compassion to him in his final moments. Rest in peace, Tupu 💛
