Mesmerizing Mo
Who knew that having a class pet could be so much fun?! We have been learning about the needs of animals in our science class. So, we know that Mo, our class guinea pig, needs air, water, food, and shelter. My class has been very responsible with him, making sure that he has plenty of water in his bottle, a clean cage to sleep and play in, and tons of food to keep his fat belly full. His favorite snacks are Timothy Hay and carrots. Believe me, he never goes hungry! We have enjoyed hearing him chatter at times and petting him in the afternoon. He wasn't too excited about moving around in the giant ball though and he completely walked out of the little leash. How in the world will Mo get his exercise? Any suggestions? Our furry friend keeps us constantly entertained. Sometimes he is just mesmerizing and we can't keep our eyes off of him! We have loved having him as a pet. Have you ever had a great pet?
When I was in third grade, we had a class pet named Tickles the Turtle. We had so much fun taking care of her needs. One of us would make sure she got a little lettuce and ham from the salad bar each day. A special treat about Tickles was that one student was picked each week to take her home for the weekend. What a huge responsibility but fun one! I'm considering adding a class pet to our class. Do you think we could get a Mo, Jr.?

I think that having a class pet is cool.but what you said about it is true. So I think that your pet will like everyone in your class.

I also have had many Guinea Pigs.At first when I was younger I had my first Guinea Pig.But he ran away.Then we went to the pet shop again,and we bought a hamster!We all thought it was a Guinea Pig and he bit my sister's finger.then we returned him, thank goodness.Then this year on my birthday they bought me a new Guinea Pig.But his eye was very bad so we returned him because I didn't want him to suffer.I only had him for a week!then on the day we returned him my mom wanted me to buy a little bird.But i did not want a bird.So I bought a Guinea Pig again.But one day I left him out a long time in the sun and he passed away.I was terrified.So we buried him.I sure was sad.Oh well at least he's in a better place now.Did you now that the proper name for guinea pig is Cavie?
