Adult Guinea Pig
Every evening, when it is time to clean out the hutch and run, Bianca starts begging (Ophelia joins her half the time).
Me: No, piggies, not yet. Medicine is later.
@KHBz: Oh, but her days are numbered...
Bianca continues to beg and eventually @KHBz can no longer resist. Immediately, Bianca knows this and gets even more excited. @KHBz goes downstairs and gets them coriander or courgette. As soon as they have finished, they beg for more, those bottomless pits. "Come on, we live for food."
They know that we can't resist. Bianca might have a terminal diagnosis and there are occasional spots of blood but she is still completely herself.
