Came down this morning to find my 4 yr old DS 'playing' with our guinea pig quite roughly. He didn't mean to but I think he broke her back as she couldn't walk when I found her.
She died in my arms about half an hour later.
DS keeps saying he is sorry and didn't mean to hurt her (which I know he didn't).
Yesterday got home from work to find that our other guinea pig had been found mysteriously dead in her cage when my husband got up in the morning.
Now I know why.
I just feel so terrible that, even though he didn't mean it, my son killed our guinea pigs. They weren't that old so should have lived much longer, plus they died in pain.
Have been crying all morning, burst out again every time I look at the cage. Don't even want DS around me at the moment, don't want to talk to him or do anything for him right now.
Sad day :(
