I had this nagging feeling I was forgetting something. Then I remembered, it’s a Sparky Day! Turning to my trusty email account, I perused the wonderful submissions by commentators since the blog began. This one just popped in just last night, and in the interest of finding this pet a new home, I am posting it immediately.
Guinea pig
Thomas the guinea pig is in need of a good home.he very friendly,loves to cuddle.great for kids.He is 1 year old.rehoming fee of $30.sorry I don’t have a cage for him .for more info call
jason
What we have here is actually an extremely rare Long-legged Carnivorous Guinea Pig (Wheekus bloodthirstius felinus*). Despite Sparky’s cheery description they don’t make as good pets for children as the Common Guinea Pig (Wheekus wheekus*). Whatever you do don’t tell him it’s rare, he’ll want more money for it.
*Names may not be entirely accurate.

Maybe jason paid a guinea for the cat, but now the cat eats him out of house and home.

Perhaps Jason was using the term “Guinea pig” more as a subject for bizarre lab experiments, and not as an actual “Guinea pig”. Thomas and all his friends have been hanging around my house, where they seem to think my gravel walks are just one big public latrine….I’ve got a cage (trap) for him, Jason.
