Still alive (and biting)

Mr Plinge is going to celebrate his 6th birthday shortly – not that he´ll actually celebrate anything, as guinea-pigs´ brains aren´t nearly big enough for that. And I suppose we won´t be celebrating either – you need something a bit more friendly (and cuddly, if possible), not an idiot that will bite the hand that feeds him, after all these years.

Still, the fact remains that Plinge is still with us. There are days when he looks really awful and I kind of doubt whether he´ll be alive when I come back home from work in the evening. He´s been like that recently, but now he seems to have become livelier again.

The only problem is that it´s becoming more difficult to leave him with someone when we both go away. He´s got his whims, for one thing. And nobody will be exactly happy of you ask them to look after a pet that just might die on him before we´re back…
