out of guilt and sympathy

As some may know, Bebe lapin was roomates with Guinoo. They were together since we got them at the pet store 15 months ago. After Bebe lapin's passing, every time i walked pass Guinoo I started crying. I felt horribly guilty for him lonliness and confusion. He was also mourning the loss of a companion.

In order to make things easier for Maelie and Guinoo, we headed off to the same pet store to see if they had guineas to keep Guinoo company. We needed a male of course as we would prefer NO BABIES!

Well, surprise surprise, we found a brother! a twin brother! only much much smaller.



I was also praying that the 2 would get along...because the whole point was for
Guinoo to have a companion. If he hated the companion, it would be much harder that I thought.

Turns out, Guinoo is in love. I mean, look at the little thing... spitting image of him!



Mini-guinea, as Maelie calls him, cannot take away the pain from losing Bebe lapin, but he can raise our spirits a little.

My heart still breaks at every thought of him. Every picture I see breaks my heart. I honestly must say I have never loved a pet so much before.
