may she rest in peace
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
( Read more... )
I lost my baby piggie (she was blind in one eye and was so small for her age, and so frail, but she was so cute, and such a fighter - I had to feed her soft food by hand, and she would fit in my palm, chirrping and demanding food until she got it, and then even sometimes when she had some, because she didn't know it was there), and her death was sudden... she was always pestering her mother, and to this day I wonder if it wasn't murder, but she is gone, and so are the others (living with my sister).
I keep a picture of her that my sister gave me on my desk, so that she is always with me. She died in the winter, so we just planted white flowers for her next to her grave (she was all white, called Snowball, or "Bunny" as I liked to call her).
I am truly sorry about Arnolda - but I am sure Bunny is showing her the ropes, and talking the entire time... she was always talking. Arnolda is in good hands, and will always be with you.
*GAH - I just made myself tear up*
Oh yes... and as to the picture thing... the same thing was with Snowball and I. She was so hard to photograph!! A few days before she died, I was down in the basement (where the cage was), and was drawing her, then decided taking pictures and drawing from those would be easier because she couldn't sit still!)... and none of the pictures was good enough, nor were the drawings, but I thought I had more time too. (The picture of her on my desk is slightly out of focus).
The pictures you have of Arnolda are beautiful.
