Today I lost one of the guinea pigs who was responsible for encouraging me to open the rescue. Peanut butter was the sweetest little guinea pig with a personality that made sure you didn’t forget to give her a treat. She loved to snuggle but was quick to give nip if you touched her no touch zone! Peanut often snuggled up for movie night and would lick my chin with her tiny tongue. As she aged, and especially through out this past year, she required hand feedings and special supplementary feeds. I didn’t mind though, because that’s what you do as a pet owner. Today, as she was struggling and I knew her time was nearing, I held and comforted her until she passed. That is what it means to be a pet owner, you care for your pet until the end.
I love you Peanut. Rest easy sweet little girl. ❤️
