Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

I got him. Poor Otis is looking peeky.

Sorry Susan, no extra items. I sent you a message. Two of them actually.

We are going to the library (to get some books for my research paper) and then the theater tonight. I will make sure to keep poor Otis out of view of any possible kidnappers.

Oh no! Have I missed out on the fun! He doesn't fancy a trip to the South East coast of England does he? ;-)

Not this time round Astrantia. The list is finished, and unfortunately no-one can be added. I missed out on the fun this time as well. Hopefully Charlie will go on another around the world trip.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Charlie...pardon me, Otis has a few more stops to make, and then he will be retiring to Cavy Spirit. Perhaps at a later time, another cousin of his will decide to take a round the world vacation.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Just wanted to make a quick update-- I am waiting to get the address from Suzi and then I will be sending him on.. Sorry it is taking so long.. Suzi gave me her address once but I cannot read what I wrote down. I don't want to send him to the wrong place.

I am going to upload photos soon.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Otis was shipped off yesterday. He should arrive tomorrow or the day after.

While he was here, we got a phone call from the local prison system. They had caught a person matching the description of Charlie's kidnapper. kidnapper. They asked Charlie to come up and try and identify him from a lineup. We went, but there was no lineup scheduled(!). Apparently the kidnapper had found out where Charlie was staying.

Charlie wandered off to look for a snack while I tried to get alternative security arranged for the remainder of the stay. Unfortunately, Charlie's snack happened to be the wardens prized plant that he kept in his office. Charlie was sentenced to 5 days in jail! He proudly did his time and is now back on his way.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Looks like just two more stops for "Otis" before he goes to Teresa. What a wild trip it's been!

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Hello all, This is Charlie/Otis speaking. I made it safely to Arizona. I am way out in the desert in protective custody. No kidnappers or anyone else can find me here. Not even the rattlenakes or coyotes. Actually I am on siesta, I have full reign of the house so I am going to spend some time with Maggie and Matillda, Suzilovespiggie's hot 2 girls. I then will mosey on over to the boy's cages and see if I can make some friends. Suzilovespiggie works nights and sleeps all day so I have lots of time until she is off (4 nights) and then we will start my adventure here in Tucson, AZ. Her 3 grandchildren are waiting for me and we are going on a picture spree. Well back to the girls, they are loving me! I will check in later.
Charlie/Otis.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

I have a really cute thing to pass on. On Friday night I took Charlie over to my grandsons. We took some pictures and Alex played with him for awhile. Charlie still has his bandages on from his kidnapp. I showed Alex all of Charlie's pictures and especially the oned of his kidnapp and how he got his bandages. At bedtime, his mother always says his prayers with him. The first prayer out of Alex's mouth was for Charlie. Alex asked the Lord to please heal Charlie of his owies and from his kidnappers. It was so cute. My daughter and I didn't want to laugh. He was so cute and so serious. So this morning I am babysitting again and Alex wants to see the pictures of Charlie. He is just so involved with Charlie. I will have to try to find him a stuffed Charlie of his own.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

Charlie had a very busy day today. He spent the day with my grandchildren. He played trucks and train with the boys. My granddaughter dressed him up in all kinds of outfits with her stuffted toys. Several of the outfits are for St. Patricks Day and Easter. Charlie has turned into a rabbit, with a white tail. My grand daughter took tuns of pictures which I hope to get to you all soon.

Re: The International Guinea Pig Adventure

suzi - Do you have an address from nismosmama to send Charlie/Otis to? You've had him about a week and a half, and it's time to send him on. If nismo doesn't respond to a private message or email within a week, please get the final address from CavySpirit to send Charlie to his final destination.
