Brownie
On 9-6-16, my daughter and I walked in to petco for fish food. Like any child, she wanted to look at all the pets. She saw the cage where they kept the guinea pigs. When the 2 bigger guinea pigs in the cage seperated, a little ray of sunshine was revealed. She was the tiniest little thing, like a bite size brownie! I had to take her home. Her face was different than any other guinea pig I ever saw. She was almost 2 months. My daughter always feed her popcorn , brushed her hair and kept her coat clean. She was the baby of the family and well loved. On 2-18-17 was one of the hardest days I've ever endured. Brownie had an upper respiratory infection and could not be saved. Explaining this to my 4 year old was even harder, she had lost her best friend. 1 week later I received the most beautiful card from the AEC staff and it has eased our sadness. I am beyond grateful for AEC in Novi for Dr. Hughes, jess, and Amanda and the rest of the staff and it was the best decision I could have made for Brownie in her final hours by placing her little life in their care. All of you are a blessing to my family and to Brownie.
