Interesting note - guinea pig babies emerge fully formed, eyes wide open and all furry...and they are ADORABLE, if not a little shocking. Shocking because who knew that the guinea pig bought by the grandmother to assauge the grief of a young boy's heart would bring along two MORE little grief-assaugers!
Names are up for grabs - Kendra is lobbying for 'Ginger and Clove" to continue the spice theme (the mom's name is Nutmeg, as Connecticut is known as 'The Nutmeg State')....Colin wants 'Chip and Dale" and Michael's choice is "five and dime" for where he wants them to end up. (just kidding). We all think they are adorable, and I have no idea how we would take them back to the pet store after the 5 weeks with their mom is up...
