A companion for the guinea pig

from w

Izzie (real name Isireli after the Hawaiin singer) was continually waiting at the door to the house looking for Ozzie, our pet rabbit who died last week, so we decided to find a new companion for him, buying Fuzzy, another male, this one one year old, from nearby Moolap. At first Izzie was delirious with joy, whistling and carrying on as if all his Christmases had come at once. He thought Fuzzy was a girl and chased him all over the verandah. At last they settled down and ate together, and now hide together behind the couch or in a litle cubby in a cupboard.
