Hi
I am feeling so guilty.

Some time ago my son wanted some guinea pigs so off I went and spent a fortune on the cage, accesories, etc.

We had them for about 3 months but my son was never that interested in them really.

We had two of them so therfore we had quite a big cage for them the cage was in our living room and I hated it really.

Also they could smell abit sometimes, I also found myself spending a fair few pound each week getting them a their supply of fruit and veg.

Anyway I took the decision to sell them and the cage.

My son became quite upset about it after and even now about a year later he brings the subject up that I gave his guinea pigs away and he has on occasions cried about it.

I feel like the worse mum in the world and feel truly terrible about it.

My mom just thinks that he has me on a guilt trip and just wants the fun of buying more guinea pigs and then not really be that bothered about them after.

Maybe she is right what do you think should I get him some more.

How much warning did you give him that you would sell them if he didn't take more care of them? It might be that he's more upset that it happened unexpectedly than the actual absence of the guinea pigs.
