Snack or Friend???

In Claire's class at preschool they have a Guinea Pig named "Patches". You can sign up for a weekend to let him come home with you and this weekend was our turn. Here is Killian's first reaction to this rodent in our house.

He hears something moving around in the cage but can't quite figure out what it is...

Ahh, now he sees that it is something that resembles either a rabbit or squirrel and he is ready to bounce. His tail was wagging like crazy and he kept whining, poor guy.

Being the sweet dog he is he decides to become friends with Patches instead of having him for a snack.
Just to let anyone out there know that doesn't have one of these little guys, they are messy. We kept him in our office on a towel on the floor and he still managed to flip the pellets of the cage all over the place. That is why he just comes for a visit.....
