my favorite pet

my favorite pet now is shadow. he's a english short hair guinea pig i think. he is brown, black, and white. he loves to eat, sleep, and drink all the time. but it is sometimes hard to take care of guinea pigs. they are messy animals. u have to at least clean their cages out once a week or maybe less than that because they can stink really bad. they also eat alot and get big in a short period of time. but they are still nice, friendly animals. if u can handle taking care of one then u should get one
