Adult Guinea Pig
So all last week – when I was off work and had all the time in the world – Casran was relatively well behaved whilst having his eye drops. He'd lay quietly with his head against my tummy whilst I opened his eye, squeeze a drop and massaged it in.
This week, when I’m in a flying panic in the mornings, he’s being a complete nightmare.
This morning he ran off down the sofa, head-butted all my clean and folded laundry onto the floor, tried to chew up a pair of clean socks, wriggled and wouldn’t sit still – I squirted eye drops all over the side of his face and had to try and clean it up with a wet cotton wool pad, at which point he had a complete meltdown tantrum. Then, when I tried to distract him with a black grape, he half chewed it then threw it at my top which I then had to go upstairs and change.
We are back to the vets on Thursdays… I’ll have had a breakdown by then.
He must know!
