So this is Mischief.....very aptly named by all accounts.

She’s a little old (only 5 but adopted in bad conditions sadly). She has a lot of health problems including cystitis and bumble foot (which is now disappearing thank goodness). So every morning she has her syringes of fluid etc for her bladder and I have to put some antibiotic gel on her paw...only then does she get breakfast.

So this morning, she is sat by her syringes all ready, I am putting on the rubber glove and squeezing out the gel for her foot...she’s hungry and slightly impatient. So I look across and there she is, having found a syringe, sucking on the end all on her own. Clearly she thinks if she just gets on with it my absence then breakfast will come quicker! I so love this Guinea, full of attitude and a real fighter...and a vet record which could be a hardback on Amazon.

I love you little Mischief 😍😍😍
 
I love it when they try to help themselves. What a gorgeous face.

Thank you, yes she is rather gorgeous isn’t she, and she knows it! She was one of three, all almost identical sadly the other two have passed away. She is a very happy little girl. She’s very special.
 
Mischief lives in a penthouse suite looking down on the other herd. For some reason, despite being on fleece she also likes to sit on a separate fleece (see brown fleece in picture). Yesterday she saw each one of the others being taken out to have their claws clipped and hair trim. She carefully watched each coming and going. No word of a lie, when it came to her turn this is what I found...I think maybe she thought I wouldn’t see her! :doh:
