My daughters 9th birthday is today. She got up to find her Guinea pig dead in her cage. She loves that Guinea pig do much she is so sad. She has had her for 4 years. Dd learned to read so she could read the list of fruits and veggies her Guinea could and could not have. She would sit with her all day while she did her schoolwork (dd is homeschooled). When we went away on vacation she would ask a friend to care for her and would carefully write out care instructions. Other than reminding her to clean the cage a couple of times I've never had to remind her to take care of this Guinea pig. And now shes gone and my poor dd just keeps going "she was getting old right? It wasn't my fault was it? I took good care of her!"
It's so sad to watch her grieving.
Not the birthday surprise she wanted

Awww, poor kid. Hope her birthday gets better.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.
My soul was ripped to shreds on 10/27/14

That's so rough when a pet dies on your birthday. Poor girl.
