However after the initial shock they quickly managed to pull themselves together and with a cool head decided that they had to postpone all their plans in order to help this poor animal
We immediately were like We have to do something about this Carolyn told The Dodo He was just so sweet So it was a very short hike that day
These two great people initially thought that the guinea pig had wandered away from his home so they went door to door to see if someone would claim him
Unfortunately that did not happen so they concluded that someone had probably dumped him They knew exactly what they had to do next
He Felt At Home

Carolyn and Conor didnt have the heart to leave this guinea pig behind just like that so they took him home with them
They immediately gave him a bath while they lined the bathtub with towels to make him extra cozy After that these two kind souls cut up fruits and veggies for him to eat in order to regain his energy after everything hed been through

The couple decided to name the guinea pig Quinn after the park near where they found him earlier that day Quickly after eating resting and relaxing Quinn began to feel at home and these people truly enjoyed his company
When he first got here he was a little bit scared Carolyn said But then he really opened up and he loved all the fruits and veggies we gave him He was just running around and having a blast
Sadly this fairy tale quickly came to an end and Quinn had to leave their home
Heartbreaking Goodbye But A Happy Ending
Quinn spent only two weeks with Carolyn and Conor before Carolyn discovered that she was actually allergic to guinea pigs Soon after that they had to say a heartbreaking goodbye to Quinn
Because of everything this guinea pig went through and also because they fell in love with him in a short time Carolyn and Conor decided to do everything to make his future bright
