Meet Wilma

This is my beautiful little buffalo (guinea pig - but don't you think they look like buffalos grazing on the Amerindian slopes? :) ) She has been my faithful companion for nearly as long as Andrew has been mine.
I got her in February 2001 when Andrew and I started dating. So I can date everything back to how old she is. 5 1/2. Evertime I was sick she used to cuddle up to me in
bed and look at me with those soft, dumb eyes. I think Wilma is the only pet where I really think she "feels" love or connection to me irrespective of food, etc. I love that.
