At least her suffering is over.
You did all your could for your piggie. She was very lucky to have you.
Perhaps if you are feeling anger at the situation, you could put it to good use in preparing some information on what happened to the pig, starting with the care it got in the school, and how that shortened her life and ended in her passing on today. Also include some info on proper guinea care and whatever else you feel like and pass that on to the teacher, principal, PTA, and school board. I would consider even contacting the SPCA. The poor pig should have been treated better. What kind of lesson does first hand neglect and mal treatment of animals teach our kids? Maybe even a local newspaper will pick it up. It really just perpetuates the disposable animal syndrome our society seems to suffer from.
Rest In Peace Coco Bean,
Amanda

She enjoyed being with us, was happier than I had ever seen her, and even though it was a month, we loved her like we had her for years. And I am glad she got to have her last little fling by escaping her cage two days ago and running around the house like a little sneak! 
Bye little Coco Bean, we will miss your sweet little face and nibbles.... |
