What a Guinea Pig is to Me

 

To other people a guinea pig is just another rodent

They associate it with a rat and mice

All they think about is how they have to clean up after it

They think about the smell it has

 

But guinea pigs are very special rodents

They are capable of emotion

They are very intelligent

I've seen them perform tricks

 

Guinea pigs are a gift to Earth

Our people were blessed with them

The one rodent that uses its teeth for good

And enjoys laying on your lap

 

Yah you have to clean up after them

But you have to clean up after a small child

And their parents still love and protect them

And spend their life helping their children live happily

 

Guinea pigs smell fine and their cages do too

As long as their owners are responsible enough

And those people who blame the piggies

Need to reflect about themselves

A good owner such as me or you
Cleans our piggy's cage twice a week

And plays with our favourite pet

On a daily basis

 

When I go to the shelter

I run into the rodent section

Head over to the guinea pigs

And observe the "SILENT" sign on the cage

 

So I silently stand on my toes

And stare into the glass

As a brown guinea pig heads out of the Pigloo

And smiles at me

 

That smile warms my insides

For only a guinea pig

Can bring that kind of pleasure

With a simple "how do you" smile

 

So now you understand my love

For large fuzzy rodents

That enjoy smiling at you

And give you a feeling of pleasure
