On our vacation, everyone we visited had dogs. The boys fell in love with each and every one of them. We feel like we aren't in the position right now to have a dog. We're busy enough! But we felt horrible that the kids didn't have a pet. We talked with them and came up with a compromise. A pet that lives in a cage and is relatively easy to care for. At first the kids wanted hamsters, but we found a guinea pig that had a sad little story and was up for adoption. The kids loved him at first sight. So, meet the new member of our family! His name is Gus. As Noah would tell you, his full name is Gus-Gus Chubbs Spivey.
