Introducing Zit
I have nothing against pets. After all, I have a dog and a guinea pig [both by accident rather than design].
I was a little miffed the other day to discover there is yet another pet in the house, that was there without my knowledge or permission.
That fucking guinea pig has adopted itself a pet.
It’s the first case I have come across where a pet has a pet, but there is a first time for everything.
Minnie has adopted a fly.
It’s not one of your average house flies, nor is it a midge. It’s just a tiny fly. A sort of minnie-fly.
The two of them are inseparable. Minnie will occasionally sit on the window sill admiring the rain outside, and the fly will sit on her head and they can enjoy the view in mutual silence.
I asked Minnie what it was called and she said she had called it Zit. Not a name I would have chosen, but it’s not my pet.
Apparently it’s a male, which goes a little way to redress the gender imbalance in the house.
I just hope he doesn’t want to talk about football all day.
Don’t get drawn into a “who’s got the longest sperm” competition, I hear fruit flies can have ones as long as a couple of inches! (when unraveled).
Sorry, been away for years … but you have a talking Guinea Pig that talks ???? cool … I ate Guinea Pigs in South America…. BEA utiful …
So the CIA has bugged your Guinea pig?
I am just pleased you seem to be out of your October blues.
Sandy was an accident??
ahh how sweet. Shep did have a fellow mate called flutter he was a butterfly. Shep and him sat by the garden all day and played. but sadly futter has gone to pastures new so now shep hangs around with the neighbour hood cat stripes. But i think that stripes is trying to corrupt my little fella.
Thrifty – I sthat the kind of thing you discuss with your mates? Do you have any mates?
Moon – Welcome back. I have been following your adventures from the sidelines. 😉 What’s surprising about talking guinea pigs? Do you never talk to animals?
TT – Only a few days until I’m into my November blues….
Charmed – She was dumped on me by a very disobedient daughter.
Vicky – Butterflies make useless pets. They don’t last long enough. Cats are much better [and taste better too].
Flies on guinea pigs yet. Dare I say what next. Oh…I already did.
Never did acquire much taste for cat and butterflies always left me wanting for more. Much meat on a guinea pig?
We used to sell the occassional guinea pig at the feedstore. They were about as dull as dull can get. Now the hamsters were mean little suckers. Wakeup one of them during their 23 hr nap and you could come up missing a digit. The rodent pet things are best eaten with lots of BBQ sauce…
