Today Saturday I run around looking for guinea pigs for three of the darlings ( said in a sarcastic voice ) we had one cage given to us and another I found at the dump yesterday for a fiver (they retail for $135 new so scored) The kids have been wanting GPs for ages.
We managed to get 3 after much running around with 4 wingey lets take it in turns to stress gran children.(sigh,deep breath)
Home they come.
And what happened you may ask?
Well,Miss 8, being the boss of the world she is and wanting the larger cage after I had set it up with Miss 5s Misty-Bloom promptly lets Miss 4s GP get away (yes by accident I know but still!) and then when goes back to check on hers finds it escaped under the gap which was fine for Misty-Bloom as she is larger and couldnt have gotten out but Ricki being tiny escaped.They are now under the house where we have seen them after a bit of screaming and crying (from Miss 8 the eternal drama queen)So what have I been doing this arvo?Chasing said Guineas which I earnt a cramp in the neck over plus itchy skin from laying on the grass pearing under the gap of the house.
We are now taking the Captains advise and waiting for the evening where we hope they shall appear and let us catch them.Stay tuned for more news.In the mean time say hello to Kevin the GP owned, named and loved by Master 6
