Our New Family Member

This is Cookie - she's a Guinea Pig, in case you couldn't tell. We got her yesterday because my husband is a complete and total push over when it comes to his daughters. They asked him if they could have a guinea pig, he said SURE, we went to Petco and got one. My parents NEVER allowed rodent related animals in our home - there wasn't any real discussion about it - it was never an option. Do I feel slighted in some way because of it? - NO. Am I against having a rodent related animal in our home? - NO. This guinea pig is very sweet and she makes the most adorable little cooing and squeaking sounds. We love her already.
