Meeting.....

.....in the middle.

Lovely girly sleepover and long overdue catch up with Caroline.

Mr C met his first guinea pigs and found it incredibly exciting.

They did not.

He ran to me and bounced from paw to paw to paw and seemed to be saying, 'mummy, mummy. There are little furry things. In that box. Outside. They smell real good. And they move really fast. And... And.... I think. I want to. Eat one of them......'

He and Henrick (the pig, who was up on his hind legs with his top paws against the wire mesh) eyeballed each other for a tense few moments. Then Mr C, who couldn't contain his thrilled joy any longer, let forth with a full on, paws off the ground, belly bark followed by a forward lunge and snap that rattled the wire mesh.

Henrick, who hadn't moved a millimetre at this outburst, continued to eye him coolly through the wire before slowly raising his right paw and extending his middle claw.

The pigs have it!

NP no guinea pigs were harmed in the making of this blipstory
