Mac tending to her kids
I was going to post about this a while ago, but I haven’t had the chance. Mac, my favorite and oldest guinea pig, died from heat and thirst! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (times infinity) She was the mother of five guinea pigs (three of which died, two of which still live– we gave them away), and was the nicest, most gentle guinea pig I had ever owned. I am soooo sad… but over the course of a lot of losses in my family of pets, I have learned to let go. In fact, I don’t know why I wasn’t so sad as I thought I would have been before she actually died. Mac had a good, fairly long life though– about two years. And during those two years, I had loads of fun with her. She used to sit in my lap while I was at the computer, and sometimes I would have fun letting her roam around in the backyard eating grass, other times just comfort me when I was overly stressed out about something. Actually, it seemed like she died very peacefully, unlike some of my pets that died, because she was just lying sprawled out on the cage– not biting or holding onto anything… So I know she was happy when she left. Well, she had a great life, and now she’s happy and content in guinea pig heaven. Good bye, Mac!
However, we got two new bunnies! Ladies and gentlemen, meet Baby and Ninja.
