she was so grey i could not tell what color she was, so depressed she would barely move away from my hand"paperwork lost" i took her home, gradually washed & trimmed & fed(she did not know what a green was!) and when her curled nails got short enough she finally began to run and JUMP! she never weighed over a pound but could get a full 2 feet length & 10 inches high. she didn't know what another guinea pig was & it took her 6 weeks to speak. she absolutely stole my heart and lived in quiet joy what little time i could give her and i miss her every day
