post script



I caught the kids pushing Olive down the slide. She would glide down and then launch into the grass. Since Guinea Pigs don't really make noise (or loud noises anyway) she couldn't tell us if she was scared to death!

Many of you have asked about Olive. Yes. She is stinky. She is easier than a lot of other pets, but, she is still smelly. When she was first here (Christmas) she was a baby and didn't have that musky rodent smell. As she grew I started having my doubts about dear Olive. So, those of you that are thinking of getting a guinea pig need to know this fact. Stinky...but manageable/tolerable.

I'm glad they included her in their play.

One can only imagine what poor Olive was screaming inside her head as she slid down the slide :) haha

How funny! It's like a guinea pig roller coaster!

That is so funny! My kids would love a guinea pig I'm sure! I imagine Olive feels a little like Sam does when he sees his brothers coming. They would probably have fun pushing Sam down a slide too, but unfortunately he's not as quiet as a guinea pig.
