Now lookie here....

Now lookie here....

How many more times must I tell ya?

I've postponed a hymn-poem cos of this

A matter of vital importance......

 

They are NOT hamsters, rats, mice, wombats, or whatever

In my pic - they are guinea pigs

If otherwise, they must be mutated giant species

(Except for the wombats, which have shrunk)

So be afraid, be very afraid!

 

Though we've seen a big rat or two

Is it the same rat each time?

In our garden it scurries off

It's quite a size, I admit

About the size of half a small cat

 

Well, ya stopped me singing a hymn today!

Heehee.

 

Here's those guinea pigs again

So you'll recognise them

You'll know them....Four little feet

Furry critters - might squeak

Eat quite often - 

Cabbage (never lettuce), fruit, carrots, seeds, etc.

        I love the human side of you, although the guinea pig side is quite adorable. I think guinea pigs are some of the cutest creatures on earth, had them for our kids when they were little. So your tribute to them is refreshing and quite the chuckle on this Saturday morning. Thank you Orchi, for being your delightful self!!!

          Thanks Bella. Now they've not heard me sing for ONE day! lol. Yes, we have 2 piggies. At one time years ago we had 34. Erm, we didn't check on their breeding. Only takes 9 weeks for new litter. Argh!

            They are prolific little buggers aren't they? We really enjoyed ours!
