Goodbye Sweet Linny Boy

It was a sad sad day yesterday.  I took Linny to the vet because he was acting strange, not eating or drinking or greeting us with his sweet little weet weet.  The vet called a few hours later, after administering fluids and a pain medication to tell me he passed away in his sleep in the incubator.  I have had the hardest time with this.  I never thought a guinea pig would effect me this much, but I keep thinking of when we got him.  Georgia was two years old, Murphy just a baby.  We were living in Arizona.  He drove from Arizona to Washington with Trevor and the dogs.  He was a sweet sweet boy.  The dogs loved him.  The kids loved to hold him and play with him.  He was a part of our daily lives and he will be missed dearly!
