Teenage Guinea Pig
Poor Spike just died in my arms. I don't even know what happened. I took her out of her cage (she was hiding in her house with Vixen) and brought her upstairs to flush out her abscess like I've been doing every day for the past few weeks. I don't know if she hurt herself struggling a little bit or if I somehow hurt her by accident or if she wasn't too happy to begin with butone second she was squirming a little bit and next she just went limp. I feel so awful either way. I rushed back downstairs because I knew something was wrong and placed her in the hut again next to Vixen since I didn't want her to die without any other piggies around her and just have the horrible woman who was flushing out her icky abscess around for her last minutes on Earth. I've buried her in the back garden next to Gigantica and her best friend Oreo. I don't know what I'm going to do with my little Vixen. I'm going to look into finding her another home with other piggy friends or I'm going to see how I feel in a few weeks and maybe get her another pig to live with. I was thinking yesterday that after the deaths of Oreo and Tica, I don't want anymore piggies. I'll see how I feel in a few weeks anyways- there are a few piggies up for adoption with Kassy's Furry Friends Rescue http://kassysfurryfriends.webs.com but I'm undecided. I guess my old lady pigs were just never meant to sit on the lawn and eat their first grass this summer. Super bummed They really would have loved it
