Mourning for Lucy and I love Giveaways!

First I would like to say THANK YOU to everyone who has posted and entered the giveaway! This is so fun, I think I will do it every 2 weeks, so keep checking my blog!
Today was a little sad....I went downstairs to exercise this morning and noticed Lucy (one of our guinea pigs) was laying down in a strange way....well she was dead. She probably died of old age, we had her and Ethel (our other guinea pig) 4 years, and we are not sure how old they were when we got them.
Our kids seemed ok with it, but it's strange only having Ethel in the cage alone. I feel sorry for her! Lucy will be buried in our backyard in a homemade coffin and we will plant a flower where she is buried. We will miss you Lucy!

  1. Wow- 4 years is a long time to have a guinea pig. I am sorry about Lucy...maybe Ethel needs a Fred? It sounds like you are going to give her a nice send off- you are a kind family.

  2. I'm sorry to hear about Ethel. We've had mice, cats, rabbits etc. through the years and it's always sad to lose one no matter how old. I lost 3 rabbits within 2 months recently and am down to only 1 so I know what you mean about it seeming strange to have just one in a cage.
