Guinea pigs are the very essence of my being. They are the reason I live. With every beat of my heart a Guinea Pig somewhere in the world is purring, and at the end of the day when I crawl into my bed and lay my head down on my pillow, I can fall asleep with a smile on my face.
Theadora and Peach (aka, the Saavy Cavies) came into my life one fateful day in July 2010. My ex-boyfriend had just moved to Alberta and left a void in my heart that I knew only a Guinea Pig could fill. I only wanted one, but God sent me two. Whoever said pigs can’t fly was wrong, because I have two Guinea Pig angels living with me, and they have flown directly into my heart.
I am The Guinea Pig whisperer. I can communicate with these magical creatures using only my eyes. For example, I just spent 5 minutes staring into Thea’s eyes, and it was revealed to me her desire to meet her birth parents. A day I knew would come, just not so soon.
A Guinea Pig will always be there to lick your lips after you eat a piece of honeydew melon. A Guinea Pig will always lick away the single salty tear that falls from your eye after your first heartbreak. And a Guinea Pig will, without fail, nuzzle up under your chin to keep you company when you are feeling just a little bit lonely. Thea and Peach have been two of the greatest joys of my life. In fact, they have been two of THE most fabulous finds I have come across in my life so far.
