A very sad day for Team Charlimouse. RIP Millie & a question about a horrid situation

So sorry for you loss must have been a terrible shock, Millie sounded an absolute gem.

You have two lovely babies and some very happy memories, the loss gets easier with time remember the happy times, hugs x
 
What a terrible shock that must have been, and made even worse by Stella's whinneying :( If her wee girl was with her, some sort of closure will have been made and the suggestions to get a companion of the same age I think is as good as any I could come up with.

She was obviously a wonderful friend and brilliant mum and at least you have her legacy in her two beautiful daughters.

Sleep well, Millie. She was truly stunning. Hugs for you x
 
so sorry. what a horrible shock :( Her baby will be ok - at 5mths she is ok to be weaned anyway and at least she has some understanding of where her mum has gone rather than just being separated from her. I hope the babies do their lovely mum proud.
 
How awful for you. You have some wonderful pictures of her & 2 beautiful babies to carry on her line. Special horses like her just tear your heart out. Big hugs tonight, & for her baby :(
 
So sorry to read this, you must be in total shock.

Don't know what else to say but I'm sure with time Millies baby will get over her loss.

Hugs for all at Team Charlimouse tomight.

So sorry about yr loss of millie, your lovely foal should be o.k weaned at 5 months, I too had to wean my foal at 5 months and he is a strapping big yearling now, I feed him on hay and a little chaff into the winter months, as he did not need any thing else. He also had company. x
 
Oh sorry..such a horrible thing to happen and you are obviously tearing yourself up over what might have been which you shouldn't do. She sounds like a wonderful mare and how lovely you rescued her from the meat man..
 
So so sorry to hear about Millie. :( I'm sure your feeling numb at the moment.

As others have said she lives on in others and always remember the great times you shared toghther.

I'm sure your foal will be fine as many are weaned at 5months. Lots of love from you and some horsey company should see her right.

RIP Millie

xx
 
Big, big hugs. Lovely horses and lovely that you have two special youngsters to remember her with but it is such a shock for you.

My youngster was weaned about five months and I was recommended to feed him suregrow. Took him a few days to know what a bucket meant. The folks in the breeding section here would give you good advice if you need it.

Big hugs x
 
What a horrendous shock that must have been for you. I'm so sorry to hear this, it's brought tears to my eyes. RIP Millie - my glass is indeed raised to her.

Whatever the cause of her death turns out to be (and I'm sure it won't be due to anything you did or didn't do!) just know that she'll have been just as lucky to have had you in her life, as you were to have her. You saved her from the meat man, and gave her years of love, fun, the best of care, and a bit more love :) She'll have known this.

My own mare was weaned at 5 months and she didn't seem to suffer any ill effects; but she was at a small stud so spent her first few weaned months with other foals. I think this would be the best option if there is any way you can, as others have said.

Huge hugs for you :( I can't even begin to imagine how this feels.
 
So sorry to hear of your loss Charlimouse, what a beautiful girl she was. Feeling your pain today as lost our old lad this morning. Be brave :(
 
So so sorry for your loss thoughts are with you, can't imagine how you must be feeling. Bought tears to my eyes. Will be raising a glass in Millie's memory. Hope you're ok and baby Stella picks up too. Xxx
