Having owned a guinea pig, I am utterly horrified that Peru is promoting roast guinea pigs for Christmas. Turkeys and pork have long been a tradition of Christmas and now, they are promoting the social herbivores for Christmas.
Unfortunately, it’s a delicacy in some countries.

Latte hasn’t been eating or being vocal for quite a number of days. Today, he is totally not reacting to anything and refuses to eat or drink. He attempted to struggle upon being picked up so that he could be brought to the vet for a check. Fur loss is discovered and I hope he can be cured. It could be due to fungus or other reasons.
I hope he will recover soon. Seeing his thin body gives me a heartache. A thin guinea pig is a weak guinea pig. It is worrying and I have to call upon someone else to help me take him to the vet for a check up. I’m very worried about him. It’s not normal for him not to run around and call out for food.
