We’re so sorry to share that our chronicly ill rescue guinea pig, Truffles, passed away this morning. We have been utterly devastated by this news and need a bit of time to come to terms with what has happened.

He took a sudden turn for the worse the night before and began refusing food and water due to severe pain. We spent the night trying to syringe feed him every 4 hrs to keep his digestive system going but he refused everything :(

We booked him in asap with the emergency exotic vet, where they discovered his bladder was completely blocked but couldn’t determine the cause. An ultrasound wasn’t available until Tuesday, leaving us with the heartbreaking decision to let him go.

This was one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make in over 10 years of having guinea pigs together. Truffles was only 6 months and 28 days old. We stayed with him as he fell asleep, telling him he wouldn’t be in pain anymore and that lots of piggies would be waiting for him over the rainbow bridge.

We believe because he was a show rescue, he may have had underlying health issues from birth. He was always very tiny and fragile compared to other guinea pigs his age and would often have bouts of shivers.

We only had a short time with him but wouldn't trade it for the world. He was the sweetest, gentlest loving soul and was truly the perfect companion for Mac after the loss of his friend Patches.

We’re incredibly touched by all the support that we've received from our community during this time. You really helped us give Truffles every chance possible. He had multiple emergency visits and was on the highest level of pain relief, yet no medications we tried were working to alleviate his pain. In his final days, we were waking every 4 hours to syringe feed him emergency food and water.

The remaining funds will go towards his outstanding vet bills, cremation and a keepsake so we can keep a part of him with us until we meet again at the rainbow bridge.

Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts.

Steph, Adam and Mac
We love you so much, Truffles. You’ll always be our sweet little chocolate truffle 🤍

Hi art friends, we're sorry for not uploading we have some very sad news to share.

Today we have the unfortunate news that Patches was unable to recover from his illness and passed away this afternoon.
Over the past few days he was struggling with what appeared to be a painful UTI, but after multiple X-rays it was confirmed that it was a large bladder stone that was preventing him from urinating.
He gave us goodbye kisses as he was preparing for his trip over the rainbow bridge to reuinte with Creston and the guinea gang.

Patches was truly one of a kind, a gentleman from the moment he was born until the moment it was time for him to head out to meet the rest of the herd.

We love you so much Patches, thank you for being a truly incredible piggy <3

Hey Art Friends!

Sorry for the lack of video this previous weekend. Life truly exploded and we had a handful of (annoying) things that needed to be taken care of IRL. The good news is that we're finally ontop of everything again and we'd already filmed a video before things got busy. We still need to edit it, but it should hopefully be up for this Sunday :)
It's been nice having a bit of extra time to work on the edit, plus it's given me some time to draw extra stuff especially for it too ohoho. >u>

In the meantime, here's a RANDOM VIDEO of ours you might not have seen before: https://youtu.be/AqDBjbIG_zA?si=DP3Vq...

BIG HUGS
Steph, Adam and the fully repaired boiler <3
