My sister and her husband visited us this evening. They're from MI and were in town for a seminar. When they got here, she immediately noticed the guinea pigs. It's been a few years since she's visited, so she ran right over to take a look at who was in each of the cages.

She asked to pick up Pikachu and held her for awhile. I offered her Rigatoni and he really wiggled around so she didn't seem as comfortable with him. She wanted to also hold Puzzle, but I didn't think it would be a good idea since she nips when you least expect it. Goody was hiding and Curly? ..... she was sitting, facing the corner.

I told her Curly's story, the loss of Truffles and how Curly also lost Oreo. My sister had that look on her face. (She LOVES animals. They have dogs, a cat and a cockatoo.) So, of course she wanted to hold Curly and you could just see how content Curly was all snuggled up, being pet.

My sister held Curly for a long time and I suggested she put her back so she wouldn't poop on her. I took her, put her back in the cage and we all sat down in the living room to visit. Within minutes, she was holding Curly again and my brother in law was telling her she was not bringing home a guinea pig.

Before we knew it, the evening flew by and they said they were going to hit the road. I took Curly from my sister and we all stared at my sister. Curly left a BIG wet spot on her shirt. ha ha That little stinker didn't even squirm around to let her know she had to go.

Anyway, I offered her a clean shirt but she said she'd change it when she got back to her hotel......I wonder if she's going to get a guinea pig....
