Note to self - Guinea Pigs do not like the sun, they do not like to be warmed by the beautiful California sunshine in January.
Note to self - Do not place a cage with two guinea pigs outside to enjoy the warm air, they would rather be stuck in a dark garage and bypass this special feeling.
Note to self - Don't try to do nice things for animals or people, you just get fucked.
How do I know this?
Monday I got up, took a shower, came downstairs.
Let the dog out, opened the garage doors and said "wow, it is beautiful outside, I bet the guinea pigs would love to stay out and have a wonderful day in the neighborhood". So, I rolled them out, gave them fresh water, lettuce, some carrots and put a blanket on the cage - just in case the sun was to bright on them.
Went to work, pretended to work - came home and called my friend in Wisconson bragging about how warm it was in Sunny California.
Got home, guinea pig cage was still there, blanket still on the top and I go over to say "hi" to the boys.
They are dead - yup dead.
Apparently I killed them because the sun was to warm for their bodies.
Do I feel like shit.
Absolutely....
Note to self..... I do not like this much guilt.....
I'm sorry boys... I am so sorry.....

All parents have shitty stories they'd like to forget. Here's hoping this one fades for you sooner than later. Sorry...
Who knew rodents didn't enjoy the sunshine? I would have done the same thing.
Just make sure you don't put your blogger friends outside. We like it dark and quiet....
