Those pets take some getting used to I think.

In my lifetime such a man hath, to my knowledge, been seen thrice before; and after each sight of him followed evil days and the death of men.'"

Hm... alternatively, you could eat the guinea pig if it got too annoying.
I know they eat it in the Andes, but I've heard its quite dull

was in the Andes, I believe I sampled it. Lots of bones, not much flavor if I recall correctly. But I could be dreaming this because I had nearly all my meals with other people and they were the type to rain fury down on me if I ate a little furry guinea pig.
