It does break my heard hearing of someone's pet being sick. I really do think that everyone who has posted a reaction to IHeartMickey's post does have the best intentions on adoption. IHeartMickey has experienced a loss of 2 piggies now and ganging up on someone about adoption doesn't help. I do know that there are places that don't have shelters that accept "Small Animals" or "Pocket Pets" and the only place you can get a
cavy is from a pet store. I do believe in adoption of a pet rather than purchasing from a store, but that option may not always option. Please don't beat me up about for my opinions on this issue. IHeartMickey, I am sorry to hear of your loss and the hard time you have been having lately.
