RIP

Our little baby boy Guinea pig Scooter suddenly passed away on Wednesday ,October 24.He was so active and happy the night before playing with his brother Hurby and enjoying his favorite treats of lettuce and carrots.In the morning I noticed he could not keep his balance falling over on his sides and one hour later he passed away peacefully in his cage.We are still in shock trying to figure out why it happened to him.My little girl is brokenhearted grieving for her little baby boy in her own way,writing him letters and taking some treats to his little grave.We loved him so much and we will miss him a lot.His cute face,his vibrant and happy personality,the light and laughter he brought to our lives.Rest in peace little Scooter.

Scooter

Yesterday we went to the pet store to buy my girl's early birthday present.We bought another Guinea pig, a friend for Hurby.He is still a baby and is very,very cute.She named him Scooter and she already loves him as much as she loves Hurby.We introduced them to each other on the floor and it went pretty good but the cage bonding was not very successful.They had to sleep in different cages.
I hope they will get used to each other and become friends.The first three pictures are of Hurby and Scooter.The last three are of some happy rats goofing around and this very active parrot who would not stand still even for a minute.That's why the only good picture of him I could take  was upside down.
