Sooo.. in light of Duckies unfortunate story. Yesterday I finally decided to go buy a herd of sweet adorable baby piggies! 4 in total (plus we have my girlfriends two 2 year old boys we've had)and I spoiled them with so many goodies to start them off with(cage/playground/accessories, food).
In honor of precious Duckie, I have named one of my sweet piggies after him! She was so nervous and shy at first, actually the most passive and calm in the store, but once she was home and free with her new sisters she was the most energetic of the pack and asserted herself amongst the top of the herd. It brought joy to me thinking she was running laps for precious Duckie. It was so neat seeing her figure out the ramp between the cage and playground first, running tons of laps afterwards and popcorning all over the place.(need to send a pic of little Duckie and her sisters somehow!)
I'm so sorry Saskia, I know the loss of such a innocent loved one can be the hardest after putting so much effort in hoping for a brighter outcome. I am someone who can't even hear bad news without it putting me down and watching this was heartbreaking. I hope you know Duckie is watching over all his brothers and sister and even lives on through my new baby herd. Thank you so much for everything you do Saskia. I wish we had a shelter such as yours near my small town.. the only thing available to us is a small store about 20 minutes out and most shelters anywhere near me are quite a distance aswell(that have Guinea pigs at that too!)We're all truly inspired and enlightened by you every time you bring us a new video and lesson. Take care from Texas!
Oh Juan well you just brought tears to my eyes as in my minds eye I am seeing your little Duckie racing around. What a lovely picture you paint. And the fact you named her Duckie. I do believe in reincarnation and depending how old your girls are perhaps Duckie came back already ... to you 🙏❤
Nice to "meet" you - you truly are a wonderful compassionate being and we need more like you. I bet your girlfriend knows you are a good catch! Keep in touch and you can share pics and stories though our Facebook page and Instagram

Omg that is so cute awwwww thank you #Savetheguineapig
From a store? :( Adopt, don't shop.
imagine spending on Guinea pigs lol
@@sanz7820 he said there isn’t a shelter near him.
Who else is in tears? So sad such a sweetie wasn't taken care of.
I am....so sad, he never had a chance.
MrWizard209 😿
I am in tears! Duckie broke my heart in many ways
My heart is just breaking, I can barely see for tears
I wish I could starve the jerks.
Little Duckie was so fortunate to have landed in your hands. Whatever life he had before, he knew what love and caring were in his final days. He is now without pain and without fear. I’m sorry you had to go this, Saskia. I’m sure each time is as hard as the one before. Rest in peace, precious Duckie. Popcorn free. 🌈❤️
Robert - it never gets easier. And yes love is amazing, they say it is a blessing for an animal be loved but it was a also a big blessing for me, stef and Ursula, who worked with him every day. Love Love!
This might sound cliched but in my twilight yrs I'm in love with piggies all over again 😊....
I had piggies as a child , "grew up" , lived my life , been around the block in ways most couldn't imagine .
Have a couple of piggies now and one of them is losing the use of her legs (all four) and I don't know what to do . I'm scared of losing her ...
They're such joy , beautiful little animals....
Funny , I've come to love piggies more than people...go figure .
Here looking and hoping for answers ...
🙏
I feel like people don't realize how much Guinea pigs eat and aren't prepared for the cost. Others aren't aware that they need access to food 24/7 so they let the food go empty.
Omg who ever had him did not care for him at all and thank god he is with you and is in great hands
This is incredible to watch. I recently had my last girl pass away, due to old age, she had a long good life. Seeing this and hearing these sounds of all these happy Guinea pigs make me tear up. I would love to volunteer and help if I ever managed to get to California...thank you for helping Guinea pigs. They deserve all the love they receive ♡
Cyn Fox Awww, Cyn, you sound like a wonderful piggie mom. If you’re ready for another baby, maybe you can check you local shelters and rescues groups. They might have a little lovie needing a wonderful home just like yours. Hugs to you.
@@kaseythompson4670 Thank you ♡ your words really help
@Elsa the guineapig And friends and her owner sophie Mhm it really is bittersweet
And much more
Just wow! Whoever did that to this poor pig should be imprisoned for neglected and causing unnecessary cruelty to animals.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but all of the people commenting and wishing Duckie well did not watch the video all the way through. It was unfortunately decided to euthanize him, as his health issues were far worse than originally thought. This is such a sad and heartbreaking story. Thank you Saskia for trying, you have a very big heart. Rest well little one.
8:22 a crunch of the lettuce, and the chorus begins XD
😆
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue always loved that about piggies, its hysterical once they figure out that rustling plastic means nums are coming XD
crimsonwolf911 ikrrr 😂😂
RIP peace Little Duckie, popcorn free over the Rainbow Bridge. Bless you for all that you do for these precioue little furbabies.
Too difficult to watch this one. Poor little baby.
At the sanctuary I am involved in we promote good quality of life but never prolong suffering.He was clearly suffering and you made the only decision possible for him.He spent his last hours on earth being loved and cared for in a way he had not known before.He died surrounded by love and kindness,not on his own without care and understanding.So glad he found his way to you even though it must have been heartbreaking for you.
Thank you Catherine, it was tough for all of us but then we are also grateful to be in a position to provide kindness, even if that means euthanasia. 🙏
The hardest part is too see an animal eating because there is the will to live. Like my senior hamster would try to eat until the very end fighting to live.
And for a poor baby it is really heart breaking.
If anyone can keep him alive, it’s you. I wish I could hold him and cover him with kisses.
I’m sorry to hear.
Such a sweet little guy.
Rest In Peace
Little Duckie
This is one story among countless. Saskia does what she can. I'd highly recommend adopting an animal in need if you can. No one can do everything. But we all can do something.
Poor Duckie. He was probably a kids pet and was mishandled. 😥
I worry about that with my kids so i tell them the piggies are mine and they must be nice to my piggies. I also watch them like a hawk .. Luckily, thank god, my kids actually are listening.
@@-_oOtianaOo_- Young kids don't realize how strong they are nor how fragile the piggies or any pet is. Thank you for watching them
@@mszoomy that is true !!
🥰 thank you ❤
RIP Duckie. you have a substantial herd to run with 😭💔🌈🌠:'(
So sorry to hear about Duckie. Hard choice but the right one. What a beautiful little angel. So sad for him 😭❤
Little Duckie now runs with the other lost loves, under the watchful eyes of the Great Guinea Pig
Hey guys! Even if you can't donate, you can help by watching the full ad in the videos so that the money can go towards the rescue (assuming the channel is monetized, which I certainly hope it is!)
Yes the channel is monetized and receives ALL the funds from the videos. It goes directly in the piggies bank account and is always a huge help at the end of the month when bills pile up.
I didnt know letting it play through made a difference. Ill do that from now on. Thanks! Dont forget the Amazonsmile link too, even those who cant afford to donate can direct a little of Amazons money to the rescue.
Being on a fixed income, donations are tough for me. So, when I view, I thumbs up, comment, and make sure to watch the adds. It all helps the site.😁❤
Warrior'ƨ Ɯιиɢƨ i have premium is I don’t get ads :/
Oh...I didn't know that. Will definitely do so in future. Thanks for the heads up.
I like seeing their ears wiggle when they eat
For anyone who wants a pony, Guinea pigs are the ultimate mini-pony!
They look like small besrs to me
Lets tacobout It me too. I have 6
CringeFest we have 8 at the moment. 4 are fosters but still
All the little piggies want to do is eat and play. They give so much joy. My soul cannot comphrehend violence to these sweet gentle beings. Enough is enough!! It's only because of you Saskia and your soul love that gives me hope for this old world. Thank you, Saskia.❤❤
Crying now broke my heart little duckies. But he's at the Rainbow Bridge and feels better now. Still thank you for taking care of the piggies!
Rest In Peace little Duckie. You knew love in your last days at least.
This just tears my heart to pieces... what kind of person could neglect such a cute innocent helpless creature?
Poor guy it's so sad how people can do that to a little animal. He is sooo cute :(
Little Duckie broke my heart. RIP sweet baby.
Poor Duckie :'((
I wish these things never happened to guinea pigs :'((
Terribly sad :'((
RIP, precious baby Duckie. Poor baby. Run free now.
Oh, my heart it's breaking for Duckie!
Me too!
Im not sure whose most spoiled....the piggies or you...these precious piggies feel the love and care you give them and then realize they are safe with you and can enjoy their lives💞💞💞
Jacque Mcarthur yes it’s so heartwarming to see
Youre doing a very good job saskia
The feel so safe around you
Awww poor Duckie
aw poor duckie im glad hes in a better place no more pain
I'm crying watching this
R.I.P
little duckie
I just rescued a baby boy that was apparently being bullied out of food, 8 weeks old all fluff and bones. Teeth overgrown from the lack of access to food 😩 coincidentally I named him Duck! He's the sweetest boy I've met. He wheeked at the sound of his food container for the first time today, it's the little things.
So sad ! I wish he is having a good life in the heaven!
This is so sad. It breaks my heart to see piggies suffer because of irresponsible owners. 😢 thanks for giving him so much love. 😭
I'm in tears. This is heartbreaking. I'm thankful that he had you in his final moments. Thank you for doing what you do.
So sorry Duckie didn't make it . Sad part of caring for animals ..and taking in rescues. Beautiful piggies !
OM gosh people problem for SURE. Bless u for caring for this sweet baby. Poor poor guy. Why oh why are people so cruel? Animal cruelty needs more severe punishment no matter what the animal.
It was so heartbreaking when I saw Duckie. I was literally in tears for him..the poor little baby. I was heartbroken when I found out after that he had to be sent to baby guinea pig heaven. At least now he is not in pain anymore. Thank you Saskia for giving him all the food, love and attention that you could give him..he knew he was being loved and at least he took that feeling with him when he went. 😭
R. I. P. Duckie now you're at peace!
✨👼🏼🐾♥🕊
R.I.P. Little Duckie :( so sad.
😢
Heartbreaking, poor little Duckie but he would have had a terribly sad life
Unfortunately human beings are the absolute worst at “caring” for pets! I’m so happy to see you and your agency have him and showering him with love&concern. Bless you and baby Duckie💙💚
So sad to hear about Duckie....he was an adorable baby boy.
I cannot find the November walk thru video part 1. Did he pass away?
Sadly, yes,Jaimee. his caretakers said he may never be able to walk and freed him from his broken little body. :(
@@heatherlee72 thanks for lettong me know Heather. I felt so bad for that little guy I just wanted to squeeze him and get him happy. But maybe it was for the best. I hate to say that. But he is no longer suffering.
It's sad that the little guy didn't get a chance at (a long) life.
He touched my heart dearly...poor little fellow, he really loves to eat. But needs someone to literally place it in front of his mouth for him to beale to get it due to his feet aww
Thank you for being there for him. Prayers!!
🙏
My dream is to travel to the US, go to the shelter adopt two guinea pigs possibly three and meet you and Scotty
Aww, the babies popcorning in the background while she's talking
Sounds like I need to roll up my sleeves and build Duckie an electric scooter with carrot dispenser!
He died
That's the right attitude, man.
If you actually know how to do that I have a disabled Guinea pig that could use it.
Awe..I’m totally crying
same here
Me three
Holly H same😿
Its heartbreaking to see them so malnourished and sicky. They all deserve so much better. To anyone thinking of getting a pigett, please make sure you have the space, money and time for them. They will need all three to thrive.
Saskia, thank you for the service you do. The love you have for these critters is so endearing. ❤️
Poor starved baby! What neglect he suffered.
You could see he was so uncomfortable poor little honey 😥
I don't understand at all how someone could neglect such a previous little guy. Thankfully they were at least smart enough to surrender him to you. It's terribly upsetting to see what so people do. He's so sweet.
If I lived there I would be there everyday! I love piggies!
Heart breaking!!!!! OLD FRENCH LADY
Thank you for doing what you guys do..wish we had a UK equivalent ❤️
We are very sorry for the loss of sweet Duckie.Paw prayers for everyone.
Many pigs rehomed here, but many more came in. Two returns, poor babies.
Keep up the great work you all.
And you too Kaye!!!
Saskia thank you 💜
Oh precious little Duckie😭
So sad about duckie...
Poor little pig.
Prayers for you Duckie
My heart is now broken
Rest in peace Duckie you did your best for him thank you for helping him
Mrs. Saskia I thank the Lord God for your care of the animals!! Especially for the sweet guinea pigs once I receive my inheritance we are going to discuss matters concerning better things for the guinea pigs!!
Same goes for Mr. Scotty too!!
Thank You 😊!!
I don’t mean to be morbid, so I beg your forgiveness if this comes across in that tone. What I took from this video is that working in any animal rescue is not always sunshine and laughter.
As wonderful and rewarding as it is a lot of the time, there are instances, like Duckie, where escorting them to the gates of the Rainbow Bridge is the kindest thing.
As terrible, difficult and heart wrenching a decision as it is, it allows the suffering to cease. It is a part of rescue work that I fear gets overlooked a lot of the time.
Thank You, all rescue workers for your efforts. Sadder stories would be more common place if not for you.
To Duckie, I hope that you have settled well in the Meadows Of Peace sweet Boar. Sleep well ❤️
My babies are definitely not underweight. Lol. Very healthy and happy boys! All 3 of them.
My, no matter how much they eat, skinny pigs are just gorgeous. It's a shame they are illegal to keep on my area, otherwise I think you'd have another hoarding situation on your hands, Saskia! 😂 Poor little Duckie, I hope he's moved on to a better place, but you did everything you could for him.
Oh Duckie 😔
Heartbreaking! You are amazing for what you do for these piggies
The little one is in good hands now
Poor baby!
So sad about Duckie, I don't know why people would get a pet and not take care of it. You and your volunteers are Guinea Pig Angels, sad to think what would happen without yall..wish I was closer so I could get one or two💜💙
I just want to say thank you for all the work you do to take care of these wonderful small creatures...
Poor duckie 😥
Funny how the boy at 13:14 looks almost exactly like my very first guinea pig. The colors, hair length and everything!
Thank you for doing this work. Duckie was smaller than my little baby munchkin when I got him 😥 I can’t believe someone wouldn’t check on their pets daily I take mine out everyday to check their ears nails crotches teeth and give them cuddles and when they’re on the floor with me and something spooks them they run back to me- they know I’ll keep them safe
R.i.p. Sweet babyangel little Duckie ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
These little piggies know your voice! They are smarter than we give them credit! I had guinea pigs for years, for pets for my 9 kids. They are wonderful pets. Books did not tell all the info needed to keep them healthy. Like HAY!!!!! I got a female from a zoo that raised piggies for reptile food. She had a uterine infection which I traced through many resources ( before google) to find it SS a lack of hay feed. My kids learned love of animals through guinea pigs.
Aww bless him I really hope he gets better soon. Whoever let him suffer like that should be ashamed of themselves. 💕💕💕🙏
This is so sad. How could someone do this?? Glad he is with you
as heartbreaking as it is, i feel like there was no hope in little duckie moving ever again. if the muscles were deteriorated back there, i would guess he couldnt urinate or poop, right?
letting him go was the kindest option, but an awful one at that. how could his owners just let him become like that? and not help him? he was only a baby. how awful. i had some hope he would be able to at least drag himself, even moreso if he had little wheels, but if he just. was too lethargic to even scoot up to grab food.... ): the poor thing.
Yes, he was not able to move about at all.
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue Thank you and your crew for all that you do. From a fellow animal lover
Anyone who is so cruel as to basically do nothing for any animal like this poor baby should rot for being heartless. ... I'll starve and go broke before I would let any of my animals go without a meal/water or even toys... People make me sick sometimes. ... I would do ANYTHING for my two Guinea Pigs, my three Hamsters, eight cats, and dog!!! They're my world, and I treat them just as good as I treat my daughter. .. They're my furbabies and they're family!!! They're much more than cute faces to look at... When I had to take my Teddybear Hamster Lincoln for his teeth trimming and when they were going over all my options and financial responsibilities I told them "you do whatever needs to be done to ensure my baby's health no matter the cost" because my Lincoln's health is far more important than a few saved dollars. ... I wish everyone cared about their pets the way I do... There's too many animals out there who are mistreated and neglected. .. Poor babies. ..
So sad. I hope he makes it. With you and Scottie I know he's in good hands.
That poor honey. Omg he is so handsome. I'm so sorry for you baby.
RIP little Duckie ❤️
My heart🥺
You poor baby. This makes me so sad please get better. Your in good hands now. Man poor baby. Hope you feel better you sweet boy. This is breaking my heart so much. :(
Poor baby 😖
Poor baby I’m so sad for what this poor baby must have endured. 😢 I’m so glad his last days were in your loving care❤️
i looove the way, you ate talking with all your piggies. i guess, they are all in love with you. 🌸😍🌸
Precious
I'm in tears too...I am so glad he knew kindness with you Saskia.
You're doing god's work, Saskia. Bravo, and thanks for taking care of a purpose greater than yourself :)
If ever you know someone in need of grief relief, listen to Josh Groban's 'Dont Give Up (You Are Loved). I always have to remind myself that sorrow can be a good thing and not so bad after all.
Did you just put tears in my eyes?
One of my rescues had paralysis. It came on overnight. She was still wanting to eat, she just couldn't move. With a bit of round the clock care and treatment with Osteocare (for calcium deficiency which causes sudden onset paralysis in guinea pigs) she made a full recovery within days!
Oh wonderful! Yes another reason why calcium is so extremely important in the diet
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue I'm just relieved that she came to us when she did! She's still a little unsteady on her feet but other than that you'd never know she had been so poorly! She's officially gained back all of her weight and more as of this week as well and has tentatively rejoined the main herd :)
My daughter~in-law has a prairie dog and she is very mean.
Omg poor baby all I can do is cry And hope he gets better
Bell peppers are very high in vitamin C, which could explain why he ate the pepper so eagerly.
