Morning Madness

So on Monday I woke up at 8 AM to let Rocko out and I went to feed my guinea pigs first because they were wheaking. I quickly glanced in the cage while bending down to grab their food and somthing dark and unfamiliar caught my attention. At a closer look I realized it was a 3rd dead something buried halfway in their bedding.


I immediately became puzzled/terrified/queezy. I called everyone I knew that I thought would be up that early within 30 min...and scared everyone...my mom's rational thinking was that someone snuck into my apartment and put another dead guinea pig in my cage out of spite. hahaha. I finally called Petco and told them the situation and they said that sometimes it's difficult to tell the sex of guinea pigs and obviously I got a male and a female instead of 2 males....which means they had a baby and killed it. The explanation really didn't help my emotional state but the Petco guy said to bring in the entire cage and they would take care of it. I wasn't sure what that entailed but I was definitely willing to try it out. My last resort was Corey from work...he has a truck and escorted me and the guineas to Petco. End of story..I now have 2 females.......this is what nightmares are made of
