Today, Kari and I cleaned Scurry's cage. Scurry is Kari's guinea pig which he chose from the pet store almost a year ago. Scurry is so named because of how active he was initially after we took him home. He would not allow us to catch him - he scurried away. Unfortunately, his scurrying didn't last too long. He is now a fat, lazy, greedy, slow, and noisy (whenever we open the fridge) guinea pig. We do cherish him anyway.
It is our custom to clean Scurry's cage every other day. However, this past weekend we failed to do so because we ran out of sawdust and Monday was a public holiday in Bermuda. Needless to say, Scurry and his cage was a complete mess. Actually, he stunk! So we visited the pet store on Tuesday and Kari and I set about cleaning Scurry and his cage. It was tough. A task that usually takes us somewhere between 15 & 20 minutes to complete took 1 hour.
Kari always has fun cleaning Scurry's cage and feeding him. He wants to do everything. He seems to be preparing himself for the next season (or generation) of Dirty Jobs. Actually, he would give Mike Rowe a run for his money (or mess). He is the best helper and great to have around. Thank you Happiness!
