I'm heartbroken to say my beloved Toffee has crossed the bridge. My sweet, inquisitive, cheeky, chief mischiefmaker was living life to the full but yesterday he lost interest in snac & barbiting. It was his way to tell me it was time to say goodbye.. #Toffee #goldenmischief 💔🌈

My very good friend @TuftyPiggie has put together this wonderful tribute of beautiful Fudge. He was a strange one that didn’t like humans and just about tolerated me but this video shows he was clearly loved and spoilt regardless. Fly high sweetheart ❤️ never forgotten

Sweet Alba, what a beautiful, brave girl you were. Tail always wagging despite everything. I’m so sad and sorry you didn’t get the happy ending you deserved. You touched the hearts of so many. RIP precious girl. I’m glad you knew love and kindness in your final days. 🌈💔
I’m very sorry to say that after seeing her 14th sunrise Alba left this world today. I think we managed to give her the send off she deserved. She was a very special little girl 💜 (1/8) 🧵

This was Alba’s song. I used to play it to her and sing it when out looking at the sunrises and sunsets. I’ve no idea how it happened or where it come from but the best part is when you read the lyrics. I’d love people to play it on full blast and think of her happy wagging tail. The tail never stopped even this morning. Only happy thoughts. Hold your dogs tight. Go on the extra walk. Watch the sunset this weekend 💜 How confusing, it must be because I love you Che confusione, sarà perché ti amo It's an emotion that grows little by little È un'emozione che cresce piano piano Hold me tight and stay closer to me Stringimi forte e stammi più vicino If I feel good about it, it will be because I love you Se ci sto bene, sarà perché ti amo I sing to the rhythm of your sweet breath Io canto al ritmo del dolce tuo respiro It's spring, it must be because I love you È primavera, sarà perché ti amo A star falls, but tell me where we are Cade una stella, ma dimmi dove siamo What do you care, it must be because I love you Che te ne frega, sarà perché ti amo And it flies, it flies, you know E vola, vola, si sa Higher and higher we go Sempre più in alto si va And fly, fly with me E vola, vola con me The world is crazy because Il mondo è matto perché And if love isn't there E se l'amore non c'è Just one song is enough Basta una sola canzone To make confusion outside and inside you Per far confusione fuori e dentro di te And fly, fly, off we go E vola, vola, si va Higher and higher we go Sempre più in alto si va And fly, fly with me E vola, vola con me

Last year we had an awful start to Christmas as we lost our lovely boy Styles on Christmas Eve to a heart condition. We only had the honour of loving him for 7 months but in that short time he was loved so much. Shine bright Styles ❤️

Ten years ago today, I adopted these two gorgeous boys and so started the Tuftypiggies legacy. So many lovely memories. 🥰🌈🌈 #Tufty #Sooty #OG #cpots #memories #rainbowpigs

Thank you so much @OfSarahs for this beautiful painting of my precious rainbow boys. It captures their personalities so well. Monty would have absolutely turned up OTRB with a happy but slightly bemused expression, just as he did when he first came home to me. 🌈🌈🌈💕💕💕

It’s winter. The buzzing has stopped - mostly. So what’s happened to all the #bees? You’ve been asking…so a quick thread to broadly account for our little #friends at this time of year. Please #retweet and #share. You know the drill. The more informed the better for bees. 1/13

3 year old boys Chai & Boba are looking for new homes. They are single piggies who haven’t bonded so are each looking for a new friend. DM me if you are interested. #Guineapigs

Beautiful mother and daughter came in today as a priority intake. They will be the last surrenders for a while as the rescue faces serious logistical and financial challenges. Unless we can find a workable solution we face closure.
