For family and those who know me.. Floyd is my beloved pet Guinea Pig. He's three years old,and very much the most tame, loving and intelligent Guinea Pig I have ever owned (and I have owned literally thousands). A few months ago he developed a lump by his jaw, which had grown bigger, so a trip to the vets a week or so ago revelaed that if it was not removed he would only have 4-6 months to live. Well this morning he had his operation to remove it, and so far all has been sucessful. I assisted during the surgery (being a vet nurse in the past) which alowed me to be there fully including the four hour recovery cuddle at home. He's drinking and eating a little.
He is also sporting a big collar bandage for the next few days to keep his stitches clean and safe from scratching. Actually Phoam, or foam is truly a part of him now.. as for packing inside the wound are two slices of disolving medical foam .
Also tonight around 6pm.. some riders of the walls churning in at St Clair::
