Yesterday, my guinea pig Arnolda passed away. I'm not really in the mood to elaborate; well I am, but the words aren't coming to me. If everyone could just take a moment to ... think of her. Say a prayer or what have you. She was the most precious baby..
It's not like I didn't see this coming; she had been sick for a while -- the vet said there was nothing to be done except give her some antibiotics. She said guinea pigs don't do well in surgery. Damn this world. Damn everything.
She's buried in a beautiful meadow down the street. There are rabbits and foxes that live there; it's awesome. I will take pictures later today when I go to lay flowers. For now, here is Arnolda; I had always planned on taking better pictures of her, but never got around to it. Damn. I'm about to cry now, so I will stop here. I will write a little bio on her later.
