Good To Know

It’s only a Guinea pig, people eat them, the cattle don’t complain. Peruvian mountain folk do not have to starve, there’s no dearth. Many are bred for their special coats of course: the Slinky, the Peruvian, the Abyssinian, the American; the American is good with other guinea pigs - good to know. This one must be a mutt, it always reminded me of Elvis in his fat period, and now it has inoperable guinea pig cancer. When my son gets back from school I will help him bury it in the garden next to the cat and hamster plot. I have a little burlap bag to put him in, it used to hold peanuts I think Elvis would like that.
