Unlike most of my guinea pigs, I know the birthdate of Bingo, the guinea pig I adopted from a rescue this summer.
He turned three on Monday, and so we had a small party for him. He doesn't eat cake, so after this photo was taken, I gave him a paper cupcake liner filled with veggies.
Unfortunately, Bingo had to go to the vet today. He's got an upper respiratory infection, and he's on antibiotics. Thankfully I caught it quickly and I'm hoping for a full recovery, but it always worries me when one of my guinea pigs is sick. In fact, as soon as I finish writing this, I'm going to go hand feed him to make sure he has been eating! It always makes me feel so helpless when one of my little guys isn't feeling well.
I do think, though, that I made the drive through worker's day when I ordered at McDonalds and she looked in the car and saw that little guy in a cage in the passenger's seat. She got the biggest grin on her face. So even if he isn't feeling well, he can brighten someone's day just by looking cute!
