Sunday we all took a ride to Petsmart. We were all excited because we were going to get a new friend for Mr. Wiggles! We picked out a super cute little piggy... Snickers. We should have noticed that Snickers was probably not the healthiest little guinea pig. Monday the boys woke up and were getting ready for school - I took Snickers out of his cage so we could pet him and love him. Afterwards, I took the boys to school and then went shopping. When I got home, I found that Snickers had died. It was really sad, even though we only had him for a day. He was so cute and sweet. But looking back we realized that Snickers never made any sounds like Mr. Wiggles, he didn't ever flinch when we touched him, he sat with Ginger kitty and didn't have any reactions and his eyes weren't fully opened liked Mr. Wiggles. I don't think he ate anything either - I tried putting food right in front of him and I never saw him take any. Of course the boys were bummed out and felt bad about losing our new little fuzzy friend. I did take him back to Petsmart, where I'm not sure what they did with him. They offered me a new piggy, but I declined. Here are a couple of pictures of the sweet little thing.
