Wow. I havn't been on the site in months . Since I lost Rolo a few months back, I have felt there hasn't been a need for me to come back on. I am now pigless but am hoping I will be able to adopt a pair in the future sometime.
At the moment home life isn't great... My parent's have just split up, my dad has moved out, collected most of his posessions, so now it is just me and my mum. The house feels awful, it doesn't really feel like a home anymore. I'd love to move but we can't afford it with the circumstances and the recession. The whole thing at the moment is really getting me down.
I thought it may help to come on here and air my feelings. So far it is helping a little.

I'd love to get some more pigs but with our financial state and the circumstances I don't think I'll be able to. When I had Smartie & Rolo, they were my first pair of pigs, shortly after getting them I found this site and it changed my whole pig perspective. I can't get over how much I loved and cherrished my pigs and now, being without them for months, it cuts me up.
Some people are dog people, some are cat people, they have a particular pet that they adore and always have in their life.
For me, I feel I am and always will be a pig person .
Although I am only 17 and have only had two pigs before, I still believe this. I don't think I could really describe how I feel about guinea pigs. All I know is that they are amazing creatures and that I love them. I have always been an animal person. Not trying to sound big headed but I am quite a caring and compassionate person. I love caring for animals and spending my time observing them, seeing individual querks and habbits. I used to sit and watch my pigs for hours, studying them, cuddling them, just spending time with them. I miss it, I really do.
I really am hoping that I can adopt some more pigs in the future. I feel like I always want them to be apart of my life.

It's been nice to sit here and type that out, getting it off my chest and for other pig lovers out there to empathise and understand. Sometimes it feels family and friends don't always share my love of guinea pigs but I know coming onto the forum I can always find another kind hearted piggie lover .

    Hello---
    I am sorry to hear things are not going so well at home and with your family. It sounds like you are grieving the loss of Rolo, and also dealing with your parents divorce - it must be very difficult and I am sorry you are going through this difficult time.

    I understand your love of animals and I think it is wonderful you found so much happiness with your piggies. You will be able to adopt again when your situation improves and you can afford it again. You can make it a goal and work towards it!

    I really do hope things improve for you soon, you are dealing with a lot, and you seem to be handling it in a very positive way, by getting out your feelings here and writing about it, being honest...you are on the right track!

    I'm here to listen if you need a friend...message me if you like anytime.
