We just got the worst news. Long story short, we had noticed our son was having something of a reaction when he was spending time with Louis and Acorn, the two guinea pigs that we adopted back in May. We hadn't noticed for a while since he hadn't reacted at all to them when we first brought the boys home, and had not had significant reactions to animals in general. We talked to our pediatrician, who sent him to Burlington for tests; sure enough, he had a severe reaction to cats and a significant reaction to dogs and other "furry mammals". The doctor's exact works were, "If it's warm blooded, we wouldn't recommend it." He told us that his allergies will probably become more pronounced with time and with repeated exposure, so we have to find a new home for Louis and Acorn.
It's awful -- the boys just love Louis and Acorn -- but we want to find them the best home possible. If anyone in the VT/NH/ME area is looking, we have two lovely, bonded boars with a complete C&C cage set-up that are yours....you would just have to go through Amiable Animals adoption process.
