Alphonse

So, I've decided after having dealt with a lose of my small family, I have noticed that I haven't been the best mother to my sweet little Alphonse. I have had him for about a year in a half now and I can't believe I have yet to get in a new cage. I feel horrible knowing this but I have to admit those things are expensive. Even though he is just an animal, he IS still pricey. I wish I could also get s second Guinea Pig so he could have a play mate but that wouldn't be wise. Two boars in the same cage is always asking for trouble. 


Why are men so territorial?! ... Never mind. 


Anyvey, I bothers me that this has been going on for QUITE SOME TIME, and only NOW am I seeing what I have neglected. No wonder the little booger doesn't like me. All in all, I have been wrapping him up in a towel every morning and letting him lay on my chest so he can hear my heart beat. I pet him and tell him I love him. Afterward I give him a treat or two and put him back in his cage. I know it isn't much but I try. Also when I'm online I let him sit in my lap. Of course this is all depending on how his mood is. 
I have played little clips off of YouTube with Guinea Pigs "Wheeting", or doing a little happy "Wheek Wheek" when they are happy and/or want some treats. Al always does this when I make a kissy noise at him, come into the room and say his name cutely or, just open the refrigerator. I feel silly but I emailed a lovely lady on YouTube called "PiggiePigPigs" and yes, I've been watching her videos for quite sometime and I finally got the nerve up and asked her about Al. Being brief of course because she has a life too. (: 


Hopefully she can give me good feedback on how to make Al a happier piggie. (: I love this little guy to death but I hope it isn't too late for him to love me too. I feel in my hard of hearts though that he does, in his own little weird piggie way, that he loves me too. So, Taking him to the vet for a check up ( his first one EVER) and getting him a new cage, toys, and trying a new approach with the whole bedding this (Thinking, like Piggiepigss, that I might get a few things of fleece and more fleecy toys) will be better for him. And dramatically change his whole mood. Oh! And more room for him to play and more attention for him. 


>< I can't believe I've done this to him for so long. So, in a sense, I will be caring more for little Al. Trying to make up for the lack of me being a bad parent. lol. 
So, I haven't blogged in two days so this makes up for it! Ha! oh and yes, Dubstep is officially awsome. 8D


Peace~!
