Remembering Lambert

[Catherine]

Penny's mother, Miss Charlie, the black piggie, died when she was three. Penny had four babies and we know that the three girls are gone. Miss Iain dies at two years old when Lily died. She just turned her face into the corner and quit living. I never managed to get her interested in life again.
Guinea pigs are strange like that. If one goes, sometimes you lose others. When Pigbert died, Frodo was gone a month later. That is how bonded they get. I am hoping that Robbie and Murray are enough to keep Rosebert and Norbert going. I think the fact that there are four of them should help.
