Waffles' Morning Chorus
Life Details
Remembering a guinea pig whose enthusiastic 'wheeking' was our daily alarm clock, a vocal, lovable potato who believed breakfast should be served precisely on time.
Waffles, a Peruvian guinea pig with absurdly long, silky hair that required regular grooming, was our maestro of mealtime. His internal clock was flawless. At 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM, without fail, the symphony would begin: first a tentative, high-pitched 'wheek?', then, if the refrigerator didn't open immediately, it would crescendo into a full-blown, earsplitting chorus of 'WHEEK-WHEEK-WHEEK!' that could be heard throughout the house. It was a sound of pure, demanding optimism. Once fed, he would settle into a contented munching, his long hair flowing around him like a robe. The predictable, joyful noise of his demands has been replaced by a silence that makes mornings feel strangely incomplete.
