My guinea pig has died.

Being temporarily crippled, I haven't been able to go downstairs (where my room is) to take care of my animals. I have a guinea pig, a chinchilla and a rabbit - just in my room. We also have a dog and a bearded dragon. Since I haven't been able to get downstairs, my little brother has been feeding the animals in my room and my grandfather, who also lives with us, has been caring for the dragon.

My brother said that yesterday, my guinea pig was very active and seemed quite happy. When he came upstairs from feeding it this morning, he said he was not moving or going for his food. My mom went downstairs to check on him a couple of hours ago and said he had died. She and my grandpa cleaned everything up.

So I'll have to work a little harder on staying positive.
